How to Learn Copywriting? ( Copywriting Tips ) | My First Million Podcast

About this video

Sam shares his approach to learning copywriting, emphasizing that mastering this skill provides lifelong income security. He outlines four methods: copy work (hand-writing classic sales letters to internalize writing patterns), taking Neville Medhora’s copywriting course, studying Jo Sugarman’s book on advertising, and reading Stephen King’s On Writing for foundational craft techniques.

Key takeaways

  • Sam learned copywriting through copy work—spending 2-3 hours daily hand-writing the 100 best sales letters of all time, plus great literature, to absorb patterns and develop writing intuition, similar to how musicians learn by playing others’ songs
  • Sam recommends Neville Medhora’s copywriting course (with a referral discount available) as an affordable structured alternative to self-teaching, and credits it with accelerating his copywriting education
  • Sam argues that copywriting is a durable life skill that guarantees income security—as a B-level copywriter, he’s confident he’ll always earn a solid salary either as an employee or by selling products, regardless of other circumstances
