There are so many free courses, YouTube channels, PDFs, and swipe files out there that knowing where to start feels impossible. I've been going down a rabbit hole lately trying to build a solid foundation without spending money upfront, and the quality varies wildly. Some resources feel like genuine gold. Others are surfacelevel fluff recycling the same advice about writing benefits not features. For those of you who have been in the game a while, what free resources actually moved the needle for you when you were starting out, or even recently? A few questions to get the conversation going: Did you lean more on written content, video courses, or just practicing by rewriting existing ads and emails? Are there specific copywriters whose free content you think is underrated or overlooked? Did any popular free resource end up being overhyped in your experience? I ask because recommendations from people actually working in copywriting carry a lot more weight than whatever shows up first in a Google search. Would love to build a thread that saves people some time and helps folks skip the filler and get to the stuff that works.   submitted by   /u/Technical-Resort5721 [link]   [comments]
