Hi, I’m Jacob 🙂
If you clicked on this page, it’s probably because you’re wondering “is this guy legit?”. To be honest, I’m still trying to figure that out myself, but here’s some numbers:
- I held the #1 search result for “copywriter” for 3 years. I doubt I’ll get it back, but I’m still top #3 for “email copywriting” and a bunch of other stuff.
- I made one client $415k in net profit in just 9 months (case study here).
- I’ve had several different individual blog posts drive over $100k worth of revenue within 12 months (some for clients and some for my own brands).
- I made around $80k net my first year as a fulltime freelancer, $130k the next year, and $220k the year after that (follow my blueprint).
I’m an accounting grad from the Bay Area who somehow landed in copywriting and content strategy. I love it, so I have that going for me, which is nice. I now live in San Diego, and I’m never leaving (if you live here too, let’s meet up!).
I got my start in direct sales, which I used to pay my way through college. To be honest, I hated it, but I was a damn good salesman, and it’s hard to call it quits when you’re doing as much as $3k per week as a formerly broke college student.
Copywriting Career
With school finished and paid for, I said bye to sales and jumped into online marketing. I discovered the world of copywriting within the year and knew immediately it was the career path for me. I had always been a solid writer, so choosing a skillset that combined elements of both writing and sales seemed like a no-brainer.
I’ve been a copywriter for 11 years now, and I’ve tried a lot of different things in that time period. After my freelancing income capped out around $20k per month, I explored content marketing, SEO services, affiliate marketing, and even building a small agency, and I managed to find profitability in each pursuit.
I’ve spent the last few years building an education company that provides the best freelance copywriting training online, both free and paid. Every month, I publish new, in-depth content on writing, marketing, or freelancing via my blog, and I work on improving The Internet’s Best Copywriting Course, which is as good as the title suggests.
Cyborg Evolution
When GPT3 was released in 2020, I started paying close attention to AI. I invested in the seed round of several tools built on GPT3, began teaching writers about how to leverage AI for outlines and brainstorming, and was brought in as an AI consultant for some of the biggest venture capital firms.Â
With the release of GPT4, I recognized a generational shift in copywriting, online search, and frankly, the entirety of online business. I put everything else on the backburner, and focused all my attention on becoming a cyborg: mastering AI for copywriting and helping other writer, marketers, and solopreneurs do the same.
