Today, we sit down with renowned copywriter, polaroid camera enthusiast, and founder of verygoodcopy.com, Eddie Shleyner.
His newsletter, VeryGoodCopy, is now growing ~100 subscribers a day with over 54,000 subscribers. He created 100s of free, addictive articles, interviews & courses about copywriting & creativity.
In 2022, he won HackerNoon’s “Email Newsletter of the Year” award. A few weeks later, he was voted a LinkedIn “Top Voice” in Marketing & Advertising.
Eddie is cool, but what we think is cooler than all his accolades, is his energy. He’s a perfect example of “Not Yelling.” He’s a chill, down to earth, introverted new father who’s found a way to make an awesome living doing what he loves. I think you’re gonna love this ep.
