The Freedom Kickstarter Podcast

The #1 Podcast for all things copywriting, digital marketing and building a 100% freedom-focused business. Since 2019, I've been helping regular folks become "coffee shop copywriters" where they earn up to £350+ per hour, secure equity deals AND get to work when they want, where they want, and for who they want. We don't do sleaze, cheese, or hyped-up claims. You'll get a warts n' all look at the life of a coffee shop copywriter as you come along on your journey building a one-person laptop business, speaking to cool people, and trying to strike the balance between passion and profits.
