Interview with AWAI Executive Director Katie Yeakle

April 25, 2008

Today’s interview is with Katie Yeakle, Executive Director of American Writers and Artists Inc. in Delray Beach Florida.

Katie works with people from all walks of life who are looking to leave the rat race behind and live “the writer’s life” as freelance direct response copywriters and artists.

Since 1997, Katie and AWAI have helped thousands of people with no prior writing experience successfully launch freelance writing and graphic design careers and prosper in the $1.8 trillion direct response industry.

(I’m one of them…)

I recorded this interview for Copywriter Catalog… so the focus is really on helping business owners find and work with freelance copywriters…

But Katie also has tips for freelance copywriters as well… including her best advice for finding clients and getting noticed. And some ideas about what to charge.

Get a pen and some paper and enjoy the interview…
