Real People – Just Like You – Share How They
Quit Their Jobs to Work at What They Love

Over the past several years, I've had the opportunity to review a number of courses offered by the American Writers and Artists Institute (AWAI). I can tell you without reservation that these are top notch courses that offer very real earnings potential and I endorse them wholeheartedly.

But that’s not all. I've also met the dedicated and talented staff at their offices in Delray Beach, Florida, had the opportunity to attend and speak at several of their outstanding workshops, and even hired a number of their program graduates to do freelance work.

Listen in as I interview both AWAI staff and Students as part of my Ask the Expert Teleclass Series.

How to Become a Freelance Copywriter

Featuring Experts Katie Yeakle, American Writers & Artists Institute and Krista Jones, Freelance Copywriter

If you can write a simple letter, you could be in big demand, earning big money, writing just a few hours a day from anywhere in the world…

Imagine working from a tropical island, a flat in London, or your own cozy home office. And who better to learn about what it takes to succeed as a freelance copywriter than the organization that wrote the book on it, the head of the organization that created the Accelerated Course on Six-Figure Copywriting and a former environmental scientist who took the course and is now exceeding her former $80,000 salary.

About Katie Yeakle

As Executive Director of the American Writers & Artists Institute, Katie Yeakle works with people from all walks of life who are looking to leave the rat race behind and live “the writer’s life” as freelance direct response copywriters and artists. Since 1997, Katie and AWAI have helped over 10,000 students learn how to successfully launch freelance writing and graphic design careers and prosper in the $1.8 trillion direct response industry.

About Krista Jones

Krista Jones worked as an environmental scientist for18 years. Recognized as a regional expert for preparing risk assessment reports, her career took off. For five years, she co-managed a $328 million contract with the U.S Environmental Protection Agency. And from 1998-2000, Krista started and managed a small environmental firm that completed work for the U.S. government and several environmental engineering firms.

In late 2000, Krista received a letter from the American Writers and Artists Institute that completely changed her life. The letter introduced a home study course that taught people how to become highly paid freelance copywriters. Fed up with the restrictions and politics that corporate life can bring, Krista decided to enroll in the course, and was able to quit her environmental career in September 2002. Now instead of crunching numbers, attending tedious meetings, and fighting traffic, Krista spends her time writing about products and services that help improve people’s lives. And best of all, she finally enjoys the kind of freedom she has always longed for.
