Flash Sale + The latest news and upcoming events from AWAI

[AWAI]( WEEK IN REVIEW --------------------------------------------------------------- April 4 – 8, 2022 Hey {NAME}, Hope you're having a good Saturday. Not surprisingly … our Writer's Retreat is almost sold out … My guess is we'll have to start a waiting list on Monday for anyone who doesn't get in before we close out. (And, then, for them it will be a question of someone cancelling for them to get in.) So think of this as your ["Last Call" to join us]( in Delray Beach May 10th and 11th and have us work with you one-on-one. Here's more about it from Rebecca: [Rebecca's Video]( It's going to be career-changing! I hope you'll be there.

[Check out these templates today — and grab them at 50% off!]( Tuesday at Noon ET! Join us for an exclusive "one-on-one" interview with Rebecca and Master B2B Copywriter Steve Slaunwhite and learn why B2B writing offers one of the surest and fastest paths to making six-figures a year with just a handful of clients. Steve is considered one of the premier B2B writers in the world and has written all kinds of B2B projects throughout his 26-plus-year career … everything from lead generators to websites to white papers … for more than 150 clients around the world. But what sets Steve apart, especially for eager writers wanting to get in on this growing niche, is his ability to teach proven B2B copywriting techniques. Steve has helped launch the writing careers of hundreds of AWAI members … many of whom had no previous knowledge of the B2B industry and are now making six-figures a year working with a handful of clients. That's because B2B writing projects are some of the most lucrative ones out there. We're talking about making $800 for short pieces of ad copy that you can knock out in one afternoon. Or two to four pages of content you could write in a day and get paid as much as $1,000 for. And not only is the content fun to write, but once you know Steve's simple formula, it's also the easiest kind of writing to do. Right now, there's a huge demand for skilled B2B writers. And the best part is — you can become a writer in this industry without "wasting" all the knowledge, skills, and experience you've already gained over the years from your previous job. During Tuesday's free event, Steve will share tips on setting up your newfound writing business … including selecting a target market that suits your skills, your interests, your background, and your experience. He'll also share his techniques for reaching out to new clients … getting that all-important first meeting … and then turning that meeting into a real, live, paying client. [So make sure you join Rebecca and Steve LIVE on Tuesday at noon ET.]( If you've been waiting for just the right niche to come along to launch your writing career, you don't want to miss this exclusive one-time event.
