<p><i>This story originally appeared on <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/scrubbing-toilets-to-17000-month-self-taught-copywriter-2023-6" rel="nofollow noopener">Business Insider</a>.</i></p>
<p>Before I knew it, I had destroyed my life. I was a rail-thin 19-year-old, and I was so poor, I spent every morning walking through fast food drive-thrus so I could collect enough change to buy a candy bar and a soda to hold me over for the day.</p>
<p>I got a job at In-N-Out Burger, and after a year of working there, I asked my boss for a raise. He told me instead that I should join the morning crew. Little did I know that meant I would be scrubbing toilets at 5 a.m. and waiting for the Arizona sun to come up so I could clean the parking lot.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" alt="The author when he was working at In-N-Out Burger." class="lazyload" loading="lazy" src="https://i.insider.com/649352d01465b6001998878c?width=600&amp;format=jpeg&amp;auto=webp" width="600" height="800"/></p>
<p><i>The author when he was working at In-N-Out Burger. Courtesy of Michael Clendenen</i></p>
<p>I found myself scrubbing concrete by day and doing punk-rock shows by night. Meanwhile, my friends were graduating college, getting married, and having kids.</p>
<p>By 22, my life was even worse<i>.</i> I was living out of a single motel room with five other people and a chihuahua to save money. I didn&#8217;t even have an internet connection — let alone a smartphone, a computer, or a car.</p>
<p>But I turned it all around, and I&#8217;m now a six-figure copywriter and direct-response marketer who&#8217;s worked with Fortune 100 companies, USA BMX, political campaigns, and more, strategizing marketing and copy. Here&#8217;s how I did it by teaching myself and sending out letters.</p>
<h2><b>In 2017, a friend asked me to write an ad selling his Mustang in exchange for 10% of the sale</b></h2>
<p>I&#8217;d never written an ad before, so I borrowed my friend&#8217;s phone and Googled &#8220;how to write a good advertisement.&#8221; I discovered a newsletter called &#8220;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.thegaryhalbertletter.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">The Gary Halbert Letter</a>.&#8221; I read one of the newsletters, in which he said he could charge a client $15,000 for a letter he wrote in his underwear at his kitchen table.</p>
<p>That was when I knew this is what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.</p>
<p>I read every newsletter Halbert had. When I was done with those, I&#8217;d sit on the floor at Barnes &amp; Noble and read all the marketing books in the store because I couldn&#8217;t afford to buy them.</p>
<p>Next, I had to figure out how to find clients.</p>
<h2><b>Sending letters changed everything</b></h2>
<p>The No. 1 strategy I learned from Halbert was to send letters in the mail to businesses to land clients. But it wasn&#8217;t that easy in the beginning because I didn&#8217;t have many resources.</p>
<p>I started writing copy at the library. One friend would drop me off in the morning, and another would help me get home. I was writing my letters by hand, and when I ran out of paper, the kind librarian would give me printer paper to write on.</p>
<p>I used the Reference USA database — now known as <a target="_blank" href="https://www.data-axle.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">Data Axle</a> — that the library had to find the addresses of businesses I wanted to work with. I landed my first client through a letter. I decided I would work on commission only, and only with businesses that I had a personal vested interest in.</p>
<h2><b>My letters were so effective, I didn&#8217;t feel the need to jump on the social-media train</b></h2>
<p>In a world of content creators but without consistent internet access at my disposal, letters were my only option, which worked in my favor and made me stand out.</p>
<p>One of the first groups of people I started working with was chiropractors because I felt strongly about the work they did. When I was younger, I&#8217;d been in several car accidents, and I had scoliosis. My treatment from a chiropractor helped me heal, and that&#8217;s how I opened my letter.</p>
<p>I didn&#8217;t talk about all of the things that I could do for them — I told chiropractors in my area why I was passionate about their work and why I was emotionally invested in them, and I gave them the opportunity to explore working together. It was honest and built instant rapport.</p>
<p>These are the same principles that I use in my clients&#8217; copy now. I still work with chiropractors, but I&#8217;ve expanded to working with relationship coaches, data scientists, and anxiety coaches. I also coach other copywriters on both their copywriting skills and obtaining clients using letters.</p>
<h2><b>I now make between $8,000 and $17,000 per month in profit</b></h2>
<p>I work around 35 hours a week, and my income has increased as I&#8217;ve brought on more clients. My work brings in between $40,000 and $100,000 per month on average for my clients.</p>
<p>I now have my own place filled with furniture that I bought. I have a successful business without spending all of my time on social media, and I just turned 27.</p>
<p>Even to this day, when I want to bring on new clients, I send out a new batch of letters. Snail mail saved my life and completely changed my future.</p>
