If you’re a teacher, you’re going to especially love this interview! Like many of our CCA students, Erin comes from a teaching background but was looking to make a change.
After having her second child, she decided that the combination of her maternity leave and summer break was the perfect time to find and train for a new career.
She discovered copywriting and, after joining the CCA, decided to give herself a goal of replacing her teaching income in the five months she had before school was scheduled to begin.
Spoiler alert: It didn’t take her five months…it took her six weeks.
Oh, and did I mention that she did all of this right in the middle of a global pandemic? (Some industries may be slowing down, but copywriting is doing just fine, thank you!)
Check out the video to hear Erin’s full story!
Pretty impressive, right? But at the same time, Erin did a great job of conveying that it’s completely doable: It’s just a matter of following the steps and doing the work.
Are you inspired? We hope so!
