Today’s Flash Sale, training workshop, and upcoming events from AWAI

[AWAI]( WEEK IN REVIEW July 8 – 12, 2024 --------------------------------------------------------------- Important Announcement Concerning Our Highest Level of Mentored Learning, Circle of Success Hi {NAME}, In case you missed yesterday's announcement … the doors to join Circle of Success are officially open! Circle of Success is our highest level of personalized training and mentorship. It's for writers who have made up their mind about becoming a professional copywriter … And want the kind of "take you by the hand" learning that will catapult you to the highest level of our industry — faster than you ever thought possible. What makes Circle of Success so special — in addition to all the training, resources, mentoring, and more you get when you become a member ([check out the full list here]() — is that Circle of Success is always evolving … Continuously adapting to the needs of the marketplace … and teaching our members accordingly. And with Google's latest algorithm changes causing businesses to struggle to get the organic search engine traffic they relied on for revenue … We've prepared TWO "emergency" summits to teach Circle of Success members what they need to know to step in and help companies tap into marketing channels that aren't subject to Google's whims. We discussed these changes broadly at our ["Google Crisis" Summit]( yesterday … But these back-to-back summits will dive deeper into the projects you can start offering clients right now to ensure they have a more "balanced" marketing approach going forward and they don't find themselves in this situation again. The first summit with Nick Usborne is happening in just over a week, so in order to get members ready to go, we can't keep Circle of Success enrollment open for very long … [So get all the details now.]( Hope you're having a great Saturday, Katie Yeakle Co-Founder & Executive Director AWAI P.S. Another change we've made to Circle of Success to help members succeed? We've made it FAR easier and FAR cheaper to join and start enjoying all the amazing benefits TODAY. [Check out these amazing terms.]( What's Trending … Training Program Flash Sale — Get Started for $59.40! You'll Love These Short, Fun, and Lucrative Writing Projects A record-setting 91% of businesses will make this simple writing project a key part of their marketing strategies in 2024 and beyond. According to HubSpot, businesses will spend more this year on this particular type of short content than any other format. Most are paying $200 to $500 per scripted minute (which is only about 150 words worth of content). But they're not complaining about paying so much for so little … They want more, and more, and more of this content … in fact, the average business wants 18 per month. What am I talking about? Videos! Short videos — most under two minutes — have become an essential part of modern marketing. You see them pop up on website homepages, on social media sites, on YouTube, as a part of internal training programs … they're everywhere. And marketers say they'd like to use more videos, but they don't have anyone to write their video scripts. This is where you come in … You could be the one to write them, and it's easier than you might imagine to get started. But don't just take my word for it — Rebecca Matter and Pam Foster have put together a short demonstration of what it takes to create a 60-second video script. You'll quickly see for yourself if this fun and lucrative type of short-form writing is for you. [Click here to check out their demonstration now.]( Join Us for a LIVE 2-Hour Writing Workshop!
