Ah, talking about how to write high-converting copy.

Getting to meet Krista and Davey Jones was one of my highlights at the Creative at Heart conference last year, mostly because I’ve looked up to their marriage, their intellect, and their reputation in the creative industry since before I left my corporate gig.

  • How I found my first clients
  • The 4 things you need to think through before you start writing copy for your audience
  • And more!
