63. Part-Time Copywriting as Part of a Full-Time Career: Nicole's Story

When Nicole first joined the Comprehensive Copywriting Academy in
late 2019, she was house sitting and planned to build her
freelance copywriting business. Then 2020 happened. Nicole took a
full-time job teaching at a college and didn't know if she would
ever go back to copywriting. Of course in another 2020 twist, her
course load was reduced. Copywriting became her security net.


Talking with Nicki and Kate at the end of 2021, Nicole shares how
she's incorporated copywriting into a mix of work she does. Her
part-time copywriting work is one piece of what she calls her
"patchwork" career, which also including teaching a course and
running her Etsy shop. She shares how she got to this balance,
why it works for her, and her advice for others looking to pursue
copywriting.


Note: Nicole mentions Pitch-a-palooza in the interview. This is a
free month-long annual event for CCA students that gets everyone
focused on sending their first pitches or refining their pitching
process with weekly challenges and giveaways.
