In This Episode:
Our guest today is Julie Hassett. She’s brought in millions of dollars for publishers like Agora Financial, Seven Figure Publishing, and Money Map Press as one of their only female copywriters.
More recently, she’s stepped into a leadership role as the Head of Copywriting and Sales for a financial investment company called My Wall Street.
Julie’s not only an influential player in the marketing world – she’s also written educational materials about finance that are currently being used nationally in public schools and even at Harvard University.
And before all that, Julie came from a pretty fascinating background – she’s worked as an actress in Los Angeles and an English teacher in Europe, and she even owned a Bait & Tackle shop in Tennessee.
All of these experiences helped form her creative process and her approach to running a writing business. Let’s get to it.
