    Kim Krause Schwalm

    KIM KRAUSE SCHWALM was always a marketer who could write copy. She spent more than 13 years in the corporate world in various marketing positions-from Marketing Director to Brand Manager to Publisher. She also helped launch and run the Healthy Directions supplement business-and grow it to the equivalent of more than $40 million in sales in today's dollars within its first 3 years. Now more than two decades later, Kim's built a reputation as one of the top A-level direct response copywriters in the country. She's developed a proven track record of writing successful copy for a wide range of respected publishers, leading supplement companies, and New York Times best-selling authors. She is also the founder of the Get Dangerously Good copywriting training and mentorship hub. It's where she helps copywriters become dangerously good at their craft-and master the techniques, client management skills, and CEO mindset that will make them A-List exceptional in their industry. Kim is one of the few top-level copywriters who's still writing copy for select clients. Plus she's mentored dozens of copywriters, marketers, and business owners, including some of today's hottest rising superstars. Her book, Client Badassery Secrets, is designed to help copywriters build successful, satisfying, and hassle-free freelance businesses.

      I believe that before intuition comes guidance. That your co-creative muse puts in your pathway the things you most need. Solid things like books, videos, courses, and contacts. The knowledge weaned from this guidance becomes the foundation upon which intuition is formed. Without this process you would have no discernment.

      My muse, aware that I am in 'the winter of my life' put Client Badassery Secrets in my path. I am nearly a decade beyond retirement age, forced to work full time, and being paid well below my potential.

      I have finished reading Kim's book and taken extensive notes, but that is not enough for it is only knowledge. The next step is to condense that knowledge into a cheat sheet that becomes my personal copywriter's bible thereby transforming knowledge to wisdom as I learn from my opportunities, successes and mistakes.

      Now, armed with Kim's insights as a cheatsheet, bible, and platform for discernment, I believe I can fast-track my own industry wisdom and craft an enjoyable, independent, abundant, and rewarding lifestyle as a copywriter and thereby, within my messed up life, finally 'set things to right'.

      I now have a plan, a pathway, a bible, a guidebook, and hope.

      Thanks Kim.
