The Bootcamp Effect: 6 Different Paths to Writing Success [Video]
Each Bootcamp, I pick six writers who have found success to share their stories and insights with you.
It’s one of my favorite parts of Bootcamp because we love to celebrate success, and inspire others on their journey!
In getting to know this year’s group, I realized they’re the perfect representation of how many different paths there are to the writer’s life.
No one has a similar story, or even how they define their perfect life.
Yet in getting to know each of them, I did uncover some consistent themes.
They’ve all experienced The Bootcamp Effect: The turbo-boost in their copywriting career that happens every time you attend.
Another theme is accountability … And what having people who can hold you accountable can do for your success.
I’m excited for you to get to know this year’s Success Panelists: Les Worley, Liz Farr, Mike Connolly, Nicole Piper, Laurie Garrison, and Eddie Stephens.
So, let’s dive in and hear a little of how they went from sitting in the Bootcamp audience not long ago to a place on the stage.
Plus, see what else they have to share that can help you find success in your own writing career, too …
Watch this video, and learn …
- The biggest obstacle they’ve encountered, and how they overcame it
- HOW they landed their first client
- What advice they have for getting and keeping clients now
- The one thing that made the biggest impact on moving them forward with copywriting
- And knowing what they now know, their best piece of advice for anyone following in their footsteps

Tim Geiger –
I am interested in being a copywriter, but I am not sure where to start. My experience has been with retail, general labor, and a movie theater. I am a movie fan, who has thought once or twice about being a professional critic but my reviews are more positive than critique.. That, and I'm pretty sure they are different fields. Copywriter work appeals to me because of the freedom it grants, but I don't know what type of company to start with. Any thoughts or suggestions?
