Meet AWAI-Trained Writer:

Professional Background:

My intention is simple: I want to be your #1 Copywriter & Marketing Strategist! I would love to work with your team and apply my savvy copywriting/marketing skills, broad-based knowledge and commitment of excellence to your projects. I thrive in a collaborative environment where the goal is increased sales and success for everyone.

Because I always aim high and strive for unparalleled results, I’m confident that I would meet or exceed your expectations. My portfolio includes compelling copy that hits people’s core and moves them to action. I’ve written effective copy for online business courses, sales emails and Facebook ads that were generating $50K a month for some small business owners and I’d love to do the same (or more!) for you.

My Strengths Would Help to Ensure Your Company’s Success
* Persuasive writing skills
* Results driven approach
* Organized & efficient
* Attention to detail
* Creative & collaborative
* Self-motivated & confident

Any copywriting role or project you may have ties in nicely with American Writers and Artists Inc. (AWAI) highly acclaimed flagship program that I’ve taken - Accelerated Program for Six-Figure Copywriting. Many consider it to be the best copywriting and marketing program there is. In fact, many prestigious companies hire only AWAI-trained copywriters.

As a Proficient Direct Response Copywriter, I Would Bring the Following Expertise to the Table

• Compelling Copy - I love to help businesses become more visible and profitable.

• Commitment to Excellence - I'm a perfectionist and highly meticulous with what I produce, such that it's always my best and highest quality work.

• Curious Minds Want to Know – I ask good questions and will know your target market on a deep level. That’s key to writing powerful copy that converts prospects into repeat customers, sales and success.

You can see my writing portfolio at https://drive.google.com/open?id=1O528EpuoBaDOemlTWsa72mLBq77mV1hi and read what happy clients have said about me on my website - www.writeattractions.com. (Just FYI… I wrote all the copy and chose all the images myself).

I'm ready to make this a win-win for us both. How about you? I look forward to hearing from you soon.

My best,

Shelli Schilke

P.S. If you’re wondering about my copywriting skills, here’s one testimonial I recently received…

“Shelli Schilke Has Helped Me to Sell Over 100k in Online Courses!”

I cannot say enough amazing things about Shelli! I have worked with her extensively and have been the beneficiary of amazing email, social media, and landing page copy. Teaming up with her helped to make my online courses even more compelling and attractive to potential customers. In one year of using her emails and social media copy, I sold over $100,000 in online courses from Instructor Certification to Facebook Ads Mastery.

She is the utmost professional, a destroyer of deadlines, and a creative copywriter that just knows how to connect with people. If you are looking for stunning copy that captures the attention of your audience and then drives them to take action, Shelli is the only one I would recommend.
