We’ve talked a lot about boundaries. You know they’re important …

… but how are you with enforcing your boundaries?

It’s all too easy to let those boundaries slide.

And the message your sending when you set a boundary, but don’t enforce it, is that none of your boundaries mean anything.

Brutal, but true.

On this episode of the Build Your Copywriting Business podcast, Nicki and Kate are sharing their best tips—from both the copywriter and client perspective—on how you can more easily set and stick to your boundaries.

We all want our clients to like us and respect our work.

But respecting us as professionals requires us to enforce those boundaries—even though we’re not raised to advocate for ourselves and say, “No, that’s not okay.”

Doing that can make us uncomfortable. But it’s essential to your success—and your sanity.

This week? You guessed it: the last of some of the most prevalent (and, yup, still dangerous) copywriting myths.

On this episode of the Build Your Copywriting Business podcast, Kate and I are shattering seven more copywriting myths.

Let’s bust these myths once and for all and focus on the tactics that will move your business forward!
