What if you always had to say:
I'm booked solid for the next few weeks.
What if you never had to hear:
Your quote is too high for what you offer.
What if you never had to experience the vomit-inducing feeling of panic around whether or not you're on the right track… with your quote, your first draft or your business?
It's possible.
Whether you want to earn "more than your last job" or you have a 6-figure business in your sights, the confidence to charge more for your work comes from your skills, your systems and the people you surround yourself with.
Introducing... Confident Copywriting
My private coaching membership for copywriters looking to be successful at their work.
But what does that EVEN MEAN?
* This is where I explain that little asterisk at the top of the page.
It's tempting to measure your success as a copywriter by your income. I can bust out stories of members having big money wins.
And they are some pretty sexy numbers. AmIright?
And I KNOW how tempting it is to make your decision to invest in yourself based on the promise of sexy numbers. But what about matching your old salary? Earning a full-time wage on part-time hours?
What about how your work makes you feel?
And this is from a copywriter who just blasted her annual full-time salary by $30K.
But I'm getting ahead of myself.
The best copywriters (the ones earning the big bucks) never stop learning and this community will help you take your place among them.
Together we will develop your skills and your business so that you always have clients who value what you can do and will pay you for it.
More advanced copywriting techniques, more in-depth resources, more hands-on coaching.
But it's not just about more.
It's about getting clarity.
- Give your current writing skills more depth and finesse
- Confidently say YES to new clients (knowing peeps have got your back)
- Get feedback on your work to reduce the time-suck of client revisions
- Tighten up your process so they grow with your business
- Seek out and land more profitable clients
Hey Hey, What about me?! It's my group!
I'm Belinda Weaver and while I created Confident Copywriting, it's not my group. But you'll want to know if I've got the cred to help you reach your goals.
Smart.
I’m not a fly-by-night-written-a-few-emails-and-decided-to-teach kind of copywriter. I’ve been writing copy for 10+ years, full time as a successful and in-demand freelance copywriter for nine of those years.
I’ve worked with hundreds (and hundreds) of clients of all sizes in all kinds of industries – from software products, insurance and financial planning to holiday packages, women’s shoes and plumbing. That doesn’t even scratch the surface!
I’ve written about products and services. I’ve written for SEO and for brand connection.
I’ve written websites, brochures, landing pages, slogans, directory listings, company and personal bios, blogs, email marketing, social media profiles, advertising, big fat ebooks and more. I’ve written pages and pages of copy and simple one-liners.
The point is that I’ve had a lot of variety come across my keyboard and I’ve learned the best copywriting techniques to get attention, create a connection and drive action.
I'm still working with clients, in addition to teaching others how to become successful, in-demand copywriters.

372% increase in monthly invoiced billings
After a particularly meagre month, Zoe was afraid she’d have to shut down the business—she earned less than she was paying for her son’s childcare.
She knew she had to find better clients and increase her rates or she might as well find a part-time job.
After joining, Zoe told Belinda about her revenue issues and problem clients, as well as her financial goals. They worked out the minimum rate she should charge given how many billable hours she had available per week, and then discussed what kind of clients she needed to book in order to reach her income goal.
By the end of the coaching session, Zoe had a map of the work she needed to do on her business and a new minimum rate she needed to charge her clients.
Zoe is now fully booked with clients and her gross invoiced billings for April was a 372% increase from before she joined Confident Copywriting.
Zoe Heard, Get Heard Copywriting
I never would have had the confidence to raise my rates by that much without Belinda’s help.
“I didn’t know how to price my services. I was doing a lot of work because I had clients, but I wasn’t making very much money. I knew I needed some help. Confident Copywriting cost a bit more than LinkedIn Premium, but I thought I’d get so much more out of being a part of the community Belinda created.”
With Confident Copywriting, Eman receives monthly copywriting resources, tutorials, and templates, as well as a group coaching and accountability calls led by Belinda.
Eman says, “The resources and templates Belinda offers in Confident Copywriting make my life so much easier and my business so much easier to run. I got much more than I expected.”
Knowing she needed a plan to raise her rates, Eman booked a Pick My Brain individual coaching session with Belinda. During their session, Belinda helped Eman map out how much she wanted to earn per month and then determined what her rates needed to be to reach that number.
“I never would have had the confidence to raise my rates by that much without Belinda’s help. It wasn’t an issue at all with my clients. That conversation opened up a whole new world to me.” Instead of being afraid of turning down a project because a potential client wouldn’t pay her rates, Eman now understood that there would be other clients who would. It resulted in 363% increase in monthly gross revenue.

More financial stability than ever!
Six months into starting her business Becky was confident in her copywriting skills, but she knew she had more to learn about running a business. There were times when she was uneasy about raising her rates or wasn’t sure what to say to a client who wasn’t paying an invoice. She was also worried about the isolation that comes with being a solo entrepreneur and feared she would burn herself out working all the time.
“I needed more support, more information, and to feel like I knew what was doing. Confident Copywriting helped me raise my rates and reach my financial goals instead of selling myself short because I have cheerleaders behind me saying go for it! As a result of taking Belinda’s Copywriting Master Class and being a part of her Confident Copywriting coaching group, I have developed the skills to understand the true capacity of my business.”

30% boost in revenue in one conversation
After getting so much value out of Belinda’s Copywriting Master Class course, Liz joined the Confident Copywriting in June 2018. Every month Liz receives copywriting resources and tutorials, copy reviews, business building tips, and group coaching and accountability calls led by Belinda. But Liz’s favorite aspect of Confident Copywriting is the community of professional copywriters in the private Facebook group.
“I like that the Facebook group in Confident Copywriting is very focused on actual issues we’re having. Belinda is extremely attentive and it actually feels like mentorship,” says Liz
After a coaching call with Belinda, Liz was able to confidently quote the agency a higher rate and offer upsells for parts of the services she was already doing for them but not charging for. She’s also redesigned how she interacts with clients so she can control the project management process to her advantage.
“I went into the meeting feeling so confident because Belinda reinforced that the work I was doing was worth the money.”

LONGER CHATS ABOUT THE GROUP
This is the only current paid group I'm part of but I've tried other paid groups and nothing has felt quite as open or supportive as CC. I constantly refer to CC materials—both the FB group and the resources on the website—and I can say with total certainty that both have helped my business thrive.
This group is brimming with content from quick tips and tricks to tactical templates and trainings that are extremely valuable and effective. This group has a true "come as you are" feel to it, which, especially in these times, has been one of the most comforting places to turn to for support—and a good laugh.

Most everything applies to who you were, who you are now or who you’re going to be as a copywriter. And Belinda has created a space where you are supported to move forward at your own pace in your own way, without judgement. It’s pressure-free yet inspiration-rich!!!

I think you already have something from me, but if not: although I’m not a copywriter in the ‘advertising’ sense of the word, this is the ONLY paid group I’m in, now. Why? Because EVERY bit of training is spot on and can be used in my business right. now. (or be safely squirreled away in an archive). The training and other team members are real, too. Nothing is pretentious from Belinda’s side of it, and we all feel comfortable asking for help.

I love best is the peace of mind I have by being here. I don't always spend a lot of time in here but just knowing that I can dip in as I need and that there's a group of awesome copywriters that has my back, along with an incredible amount of resources on the site, is enough to keep me onboard. It's like when you don't spend a lot of time with family but 'know' they're there when you need, just like you are for them. Bit fluffy and long-winded but hope that makes sense.
