Dawn Apuan
Hey there! Welcome to the Abundant Copy Queens podcast! My name is Dawn Apuan and I’m the founder of Abundant Copy Queens, a mastermind for female copywriters who want to charge $10K (or more!) for sales pages and other customized copy projects (like website copy or sales funnels), or monthly email marketing retainers. Did you know that 80% of female-owned businesses make less than $50K revenue per year? I’m on a mission to help female copywriters currently doing freelance copywriting crush this number and join the 13% boss CEOs making multiple six figures with copywriting. If you’re a female copywriter wanting to raise your rates and make more money, but you’re not sure how, you’re in the right place. I work very closely with those inside the program, so I want to make sure YOU feel like you’ve found the perfect person to support YOU on your journey. I hope that through this podcast you’re going to feel really good about your decision - whether it’s a HELL YES to join Abundant Copy Queens, or a no.

Ep 9: The Real Reason You’re Not Making Enough Money Writing Copy
Forcing bro marketing strategies and tactics won’t get you the success (& money) you really want. But you know that already, or else you wouldn’t be here.    Most copywriters are addicted to buying programs and courses, but never create the success they’re promised. Why? Because no course or strategy is the magic bullet. YOU ARE.    In the final episode of Abundant Copy Queens, I’m sharing what makes this program radically different from any other copy mastermind on the planet. I’ve created this episode for you so you can discover… The 3-step manifestation process to get anything you desire.  How to utilize tools like breathwork, NLP, gene keys, human design, and more to dramatically increase your income.  Why intuition, meditation, and visualization are absolutely vital if you really want to create a life and business you love.   You made it to episode 10, so I know you need something. You’re craving something. You’re being called to something. The results you’re looking for don’t just come from taking in information; it comes from implementation as you access that NEXT LEVEL version of you.    You don’t have to figure this all out alone (I didn’t). I’m inviting you to take the next step with me so we can do this together.    Everything you desire IS available to you. If you are brave enough to claim it. Do YOU have the courage to become a copy queen?   Yes? It’s time my friend >> www.abundantcopyqueens.com   Here are a few journal prompts I menntioned to get you started thinking about what’s possible for you:  How does it feel to always have more than enough? What would be the most fun way to get to 7 figures? What does my 7-figure self want to share about my biz, plans and getting to 7 figures? What if I let it be easy? What would that look like? A year from now, what would be the most epic ending you can think of for your business?

Ep 8: How to Make More Money Faster with Copywriting
I grew my copywriting business from zero to 6-figures in 11 months, and beyond multi-6 my second year in business. Along the way, I made a lot of mistakes, and spent a lot of money I didn’t need to, so that you don’t have to.    In the eighth episode of Abundant Copy Queens, I’m sharing the zillions of mistakes I made and what I’d do differently to get faster results. I’ve created this episode for you so you can discover… What not to do if you want to get to six figures (& beyond) this year.  How to know if Abundant Copy Queens is really the right mastermind for you (& why it’s JUST for women).  Why it’s NOT a good fit if you’re this type of person and what to do instead.    Do not skip over this episode. I created this podcast miniseries so you could know one way or the other – hell yes or hell no – whether or not Abundant Copy Queens is right for you. Inside this episode I go deep on who it’s for, and who it’s NOT for so that you know you’ve made the right decision for YOU.   Questions? Feel free to send me a DM on IG @dawnapuan.    Is it a HELL YES?

Ep 7: Case Study: From Stress & Frustration to Joy and Ease
When you first start copywriting, there’s a lot of unknowns. And, it can be particularly stressful if you’re needing to pay the bills.  Jacqueline knew what she was doing wasn’t working and that she needed to make a change.   In the seventh episode of Abundant Copy Queens, Jacqueline shares her journey with you: before, during, and after joining the program. I’ve created this episode for you so you can see… That there are other female copywriters like you who have the same fears and struggles you do.  How two unexpected parts of the program were game-changers for Jacqueline’s business. Why she recommends coaching to others and how this ONE thing has totally changed her life for the better.    I’m betting that at least a few parts of Jacqueline’s story will resonate with you and there’s something in there you need to hear. One of the things I loved that came out of it was our conversation around fear and doing “uncomfortable” things in order to get what we really want. If you’re like Jacqueline and you KNOW what you’re doing ISN’T working, it’s time to put in your application for Abundant Copy Queens! I don’t bite. I promise. I actually can’t WAIT to support you, so get that call booked! >> www.abundantcopyqueens.com

Ep 6: Are You Suffering From Service Provider Syndrome?
Copywriting can be a time-consuming job.    If left unchecked, you can end up spending ALL your time making other people more money than you’re making.    In the sixth episode of Abundant Copy Queens, I’m sharing how to go from freelancer to successful CEO. I’ve created this episode for you so you can discover… Why some clients are “expensive money” and how to avoid them. How to make retainer clients work for you instead of being a burden. Why your productivity and lack of income-generating activities is keeping you stuck.    It’s time to ditch the freelancer mentality, for good. You deserve better! You are a friggin’ copy QUEEN and get to run your biz as a boss CEO, not a struggling freelancer. If that’s you, then it’s time to put in your app for Abundant Copy Queens and jump on a call to make sure it’s the right fit!   If your services aren’t “free” and you’re DONE “freelancing,” then it’s time to apply: www.abundantcopyqueens.com   Here's the journal exercise I walked you through during the episode: Pull out your journal and choose 3-5 new beliefs about your work and working with rock star clients. Write them down. And then I want you to think about the transaction of selling your first $10K or $20K project. Visualize it. Close your eyes. Feel how excited you are, not just to get paid more than you’ve ever been paid before, but also how excited you are to support your client and create their copy.    Feel the joy, the excitement, and the gratitude for at least 30 seconds.    Picture yourself processing their credit card payment or receiving the bank transfer. Visualize that amount in your bank account and savor how good you feel right now. Then imagine this happening every week, maybe even a couple times a week.    Feels good, right? I recommend you do this daily. For income-generating activities that are little-known, download Client Attraction for Female Copywriters right here.

Ep 4: The Biggest Mistake Newer Freelance Copywriters Make
Remember how I mentioned 80% of female-owned businesses never make more than $50K revenue per year? Well, some of that has to do with one of the biggest mistakes I see newer copywriters making (me too back in the day).      Most copywriters have no idea how to price their offers and are ridiculously underpriced. Without the confidence of knowing how well your copy will convert and truly knowing the value of your work (that you learned in episode 3), you’ll always be underpriced and never make the money you really want.    In the fourth episode of Abundant Copy Queens, I’m sharing how to become a high ticket copywriter in demand. I’ve created this episode for you so you can discover… What not to do from my very first copywriting job (this one’s a doozy). How a copywriter can make $25K in one hour (and why time should NOT be a factor in how you price your offers). Why this one key ingredient inside Abundant Copy Queens will immediately boost your confidence and your rates (like, today).   Ready to say GOODBYE to those low rates you’re charging? Can I get a HELL Yes?!?!? Then it’s time to fill out your application and book your call for Abundant Copy Queens! What are you waiting for girl? You got this.  If you’re dying to raise your rates and want support doing it with grace and ease, visit www.abundantcopyqueens.com

Ep 3: How Do You Know When You Can Raise Your Rates?
Most copywriters I meet want to raise their rates, but they’re scared. So, how DO you know when to raise your rates and by how much? Without the confidence of knowing how well your copy will convert and truly knowing the value of your work, you’ll never make the money you really want.    In the third episode of Abundant Copy Queens, I’m sharing how to know when you can increase your rates. I’ve created this episode for you so you can uncover… What metrics are good (aka industry standard) for different types of copy. How to price your offers effectively so it’s a no-brainer for your ideal clients. Why this one key ingredient inside Abundant Copy Queens will immediately boost your confidence and your rates (like, today).   If you’re not having a crap-ton of FUN in your business and you’re starting to feel resentful toward your clients and resentful about what you’re making for the time you’re spending, then it’s time to apply for Abundant Copy Queens! I believe the more fun you have the more money you make and I want to help you raise those rates Beautiful!     Head here now to apply >> www.abundantcopyqueens.com If you’re still mastering the skill of copywriting, you can download the Copywriting Business Blueprint right here.

Copywriting is a phenomenal way to make money from the comfort of your home.    But here’s the reality…just because you’re an incredible copywriter, doesn’t mean you’re an expert at running a profitable copywriting business, and that’s OKAY. That’s why I’m here to help!   In this first episode of Abundant Copy Queens, I’m sharing a bit more about my story and how I quickly built my copywriting business, and what you can expect when you work with me inside Abundant Copy Queens. I’ve created this podcast for you for a few different reasons… Copywriting can be a very lucrative business. You shouldn’t have to feel overworked and underpaid. Making 6, and even multiple 6 figures a year can be done with ease when you know how. I made a LOT of mistakes to get to where I’m at, and I want to help you avoid making those same mistakes. The thing I credit for most of my success might surprise you, but I promise it’s going to be a game-changer for your business.    I’m really excited to have this platform as a place for you to gain the insight and knowledge you need to make an informed decision about coaching so you can finally make the money you deserve!

As you’re journaling, I want you to visualize it being your reality and I want you to actually feel how good you feel. 1 - What does your perfect day look like? 2 - How much money do you want to make per month? Per year? 3 - How many hours a week do you want to work?  And, the last thing I want you to journal is to make a list of at least 5-10 dream things your income will get you. It might be a car, a house, a trip to Disneyland with the kids…it’s your dream. Go BIG. Write it all down. Because the truth is, we don’t just want to make more money. Money gives us CHOICES. We want money to buy the things we want. Write down all those things you want money to give you. Then I’ll see you in episode 2.
