No! Financial is one of the three “eternal” niches, along with health and happiness. But because you’re helping people make money, you get paid the most writing financial than in any other niche. Financial copy has been around since the beginning of the stock market in 1792. And Ben Franklin was one of the first financial publishers with his annual report, Poor Richards Almanack which included financial advice.  So there will also be a need for financial copy as long as people want more money.

AI is a tool, and a great tool at that. Especially for research. AI can also help create drafts for short-form copy. But AI cannot replace financial copywriters. How do I know? Because AI, including ChatGPT, is based on Large Language Models and neural networks. But all these models and networks have a delay in processing their dataset. Which is why ChatGPT says its knowledge base is limited only to public information available until 2021. But the stock market moves daily. So there are two and half years-worth of stock news AI has NO knowledge about. Plus the ongoing financial news that happens daily. Therefore, AI cannot successfully write on current financial topics.

That’s ok! Most people get into financial copy from other niches, and don’t have any experience when they start. But if you work hard and are willing to learn, then you already have all the ingredients necessary to be successful.

That’s ok! And good for you for already dipping your toes in. That means you already know how big the opportunities are. I spent my first two years in financial copy, learning the ropes and writing solid, base hit promos. But it wasn’t until I started working up close with a dedicated copy chief and started studying financial copy every day, that I was able to write my first multimillion dollar promo. Having WOFC in your corner will give you the feedback needed to take your financial copy to the next level. You’ll get mentoring form some of Agora’s top copywriters, access to blockbuster controls to study, and insider reporting on big winners that can help you improve your skills.

That’s ok! I had never invested either. And in fact, I didn’t even invest in the promos I wrote for during my first couple of years because I was getting my own finances in order. So while investing experience helps you get in the mind of your prospect, it is not a requirement.

That’s ok! I’m not the best at math either. But thankfully there are plenty of online calculators and websites that can help you.

That’s ok! I had never written long-form copy either. But having the training and feedback from WOFC will help you learn the process for writing full-length promos, dialogue and screenwriting for VSLs.

Yes! Most financial copywriting roles come with royalties as part of the standard agreement. Obviously, I can’t speak for every publisher, but financial is the only copywriting niche consistently known for paying high royalties. And this is true whether for short-form or long-form copy… and whether for inhouse or freelance copywriters.

Only if the opportunity arises and you want to. But you can have a long, successful career as a freelance copywriter with Agora (or any other major financial publisher for that matter), as an independent contractor. So you don’t have to be inhouse, relocate, or become an employee unless you want to. There are plenty of opportunities and arrangement possibilities.

Yes! While it’s true there have been layoffs and challenges over the last 12 months, publishers are starting to hire again. And I personally know people who have been hired recently at publishers like Banyan Hill, Stansberry, and Agora Financial. Plus there are plenty of opportunist right now at companies like SeekingAlpha, Money Map Press and TIFIN Wealth that you can take advantage of.

There are definitely some challenges facing the economy and the stock market. So I understand and appreciate your consideration. You’re wise to ask about these things. But the reality is, the stock market isn’t going to go away. In a down market, known as a “bear” people are looking for the advice, wisdom, and guidance of a trusted financial guru to help them stop losing money and actually protect their wealth. And many of history’s greatest fortunes have been made in down markets. Including well-known investors like Warren Buffett, Sir John Templeton and Baron Rothschild.
