Testimonials

“I discovered this podcast a couple of weeks back, and I’m really enjoying listening back through previous issues. Freelance copywriting can be a bit of a solitary lifestyle, and it’s really useful to hear how other writers out there make their businesses work. Thanks, Kate and Belinda, for all the great information :-)”

“Great discussion between two very talented copywriters, each with a different point of view on the topic. I enjoyed the podcast because I get to make up my own mind rather than being told what I should be doing.”

“I’m currently working towards setting myself up as a freelance copywriter and was looking for a podcast which would provide some helpful tips, being a newbie ‘n all. Hot Copy does that and so much more! Belinda and Kate are the perfect duo – their tips are invaluable and the podcast is a joy to listen to. I’ve caught up with all the podcasts now, but know I’ll be dipping in and out of all them again lots in the future. I feel part of the copywriting ‘crew’ and it’s really giving me the confidence to go for it. Thanks both – please keep it up! Anna.”

“I do all my copy in Swedish, but still I have had enormous help from this podcast! Almost all episodes give me tips and insights that can be used in my work. So even if you don’t write in English, give this podcast a try. Seems like copywriting is an international language, and these girls speak it fluently. Keep up the good work!”

Found this podcast by chance and love the easy relaxed style, with lots of useful pointers. Thanks! Louise @SocialBeeNI

“Hot Copy combines practical advice with personality. With episodes of around 20 minutes, it’s perfect bus/train listening, or with a cup of tea when you need a break from finding the right words. I found the episode on finding clients particularly useful and reassuring – it’s great to hear that you CAN build a successful business without doing cold calling!”

“Loving the great tips and advice Belinda and Kate dish out in this podcast. Especially loving the different approaches they have to a similar business. There are no right answers, just great ideas we can implement as appropriate to our businesses. Thanks gals  – Loren”

“Just found this. Love hearing two very successful copywriters with different approaches, learn from each other. There’s three podcasts I listen to religiously: Radiolab, Tim Ferris and now this.”

“When I’m feeling blah and bored, I listen to Hot Copy for a kick up the woo-hoo. Even what may seem like boring admin stuff, like processes, has the potential to rev my writing engine. I get all warm and inspired to make my copywriting business the best it can be. If you’re in the business of writing, Hot Copy is a must. I want more!”

“Every episode hosts Belinda Weaver and Kate talk about the nuts and bolts of working as a copywriter. Much of the information shared focuses on freelancer writers but anyone working for themselves will find useful tips here. There much good humour, too”
