Rob Marsh:  If you listen to last week's episode, you know that from time to time, we like to have previous guests come back and talk about the evolution of their businesses since the last time that we spoke. This week, we're doing it again. Our guest for this episode of The Copywriter Club Podcast is former Copywriter Accelerator member and former Copywriter Think Tank member, Chanti Zak. Chanti shared the details about the three phases of her business that she's gone through over the last couple of years since we last talked to her and when she first started out as a copywriter. And if you are just starting out or you're thinking about what your business could become in the future, you're going to find a lot of inspiration in what Chanti has to share today.

Kira Hug:  But first, this podcast episode is sponsored by The Copywriter Accelerator, which is our five-month mastermind/coaching program for copywriters who want to build a profitable copywriting business and make roughly $10,000 a month in their business consistently. So if that grabbed your attention, if that's what you want to do in the New Year, then join the wait list for The Copywriter Accelerator, and you can do that by going to thecopywriteraccelerator.com.

Rob Marsh:  Okay, let's get to our interview with Chanti.

Kira Hug:  Let's just rewind a little bit. We don't have to cover everything that's happened since we last chatted, but can you share a highlight reel with one of your highlights from the last two years post-COVID?

Chanti Zak:  Oh my gosh. From the last two years, probably one of the biggest things has been building a team and just working with a lot more brilliant humans and learning how to ask for help and support in my business, but also in life.

Rob Marsh:  We'll link to the first interview. In fact, we've talked to you a couple times on the podcast, if I'm not mistaken, Chanti. But we're going to link back to those so that people can catch up and hear how you built your business and how you literally went from getting laid off to creating this business. But we should probably also not only have you just built the team, but let's talk a little bit about where you are in your business, the kinds of things that you're doing today, the kinds of courses and work that you do for the clients. When we talked that first time, you didn't have this huge roster of famous, big name marketers and copywriters and the who's who of the internet that you have today. So tell us about that business.

Chanti Zak:  Yeah. Oh my gosh, it's been a wild ride. So yeah, I think the first time I was on the pod was totally solo, really just figuring things out and I feel like I had no clue where I was headed or what I was doing. And today, I sometimes feel the same way, but I have a little agency, so that's a big change because demand for quizzes became so impossible for me to meet by myself that it was time to bring other people in. And so the agency; learning how to run that, that's been a big change. And then I think the first one was on the pod, I didn't have a course either, and I was very much behind the scenes and putting all my energy into everybody else's business and not my own.

So shifting from that to, "Okay, I'm going to use and discover my own voice and build my own audience and use the skills I'm using for clients for myself." And that's been a journey too. So Grow with Quizzes is my main course, and I probably am 50/50 now in terms of revenue from clients and from the course and other smaller courses that I've created. And that was my goal for a long time,
