If you remember a few week’s ago, I aired an interview in which I spoke with Allison Nazarrian about writing copy for your business. Well, this time around I speak with Tammi Metzler, of The Write Associate about outsourcing your copywriting to a professional. Tammi and I cover such topics as, why a business should hire a copywriter, how to find a copywriter, questions to ask and items to consider during your initial consultation and more. It should be noted that many of the questions and items that should be considered when looking for a copywriter can be applied to almost any independent contractor you plan on working with — such as a Virtual Assistant.

And yes, as you mention, many of the tips and techniques can apply to other virtual professionals too, so hopefully even listeners who aren't in the market for a copywriter will get some ideas to use in marketing their own businesses. I love the title, by the way! __________________ Tammi Metzler ~ The Write Associate Free call: "How to Write Email Subject Lines That Grab Attention!"

It's really neat to hear her 'strut her stuff' in this episode. Great show ladies! __________________ Stuck in startup? Stop dreaming. Start DOING!

It was truly great hearing Tammi talk about the topic she is not only an expert in, but passionate about too. I still smile every time I think about hearing Tammi pound her hand on the desk (not sure how many noticed this, but I did), because she was getting so enthusiastic about the information she had to share. In fact, I recall thinking -- you go girl! It was great having you, Tammi, as a guest and I am happy those that have listened found the show valuable. The one thing that remains a constant throughout this wonderful podcast experience is that the podcast interviews are always fun. Thanks for listening and for being part of the fun. __________________ Darlene Victoria Gonzalez The Voice & Vision Behind Your Business
