Even though I've done copywriting for some time already, I've had my own writing agency for a relatively short time. The tips Eleanor shares are extremely useful, not just for copywriters, but for freelancers of any field. Especially the Copywriter's Toolkit section and the Non-Negotiables were really helpful for me personally, and I plan to put these lessons into action soon. Thanks Eleanor, I really enjoyed the course!
