What other people are saying

From imposter syndrome
to doubling my income

"In the last year alone, I doubled my income that I was making in the year before. So I think this was a really important stage for me that gave me the confidence and the skills to move from freelancer to entrepreneur."

Becky Rogers, copywriter and ghostwriter, United Kingdom

He’s hands down the best

"If you ever have an opportunity to work with Jesse in any way, you need to jump on it. It'll be the most enjoyable coaching or consulting experience you've ever had. He's hands down the best because he takes things that are very, very complex and makes them simple so that other people can do it too."

Grace Lever, an eight-figure business owner and director of Outsourced Doers

Alexei Van Klaveren, copywriter, Rohnert Park, California

Great for someone wanting to escape 9 to 5

I think the most important thing is the fact that you helped me find the strength to just put myself out there because that's I'm already getting people viewing my, profile.

it's great for someone wanting to escape their nine to five, spend more time with their family, make some money as a main income or a side income, whichever they choose. But it's for someone that wants to start freelance copywriting and get all the benefits that come with it.

Taylor Belicek, Mom and Student, Texas.

Anyone who needs to get past imposter syndrome would benefit from this.

I was looking for flexible work as a full-time student and a mom. I liked how everything was broken down into easy steps, which took the intimidation out of getting started. It's not the technical part that stops people; it's the intimidation. Having a competent person confidently lay out what you need to do, but still have the flexibility to ask if it's helpful, was great. The portfolio pieces were the biggest thing, and having a rubric to go off of was so helpful. I think anyone who needs to get past imposter syndrome would benefit from this.

Attract more clients and boost my confidence!

Jesse is a highly skilled coach with a deep understanding of his students, something that becomes clear from the very first session. He helped me clarify my ideas and define my niche, which I hadn’t fully appreciated until he showed me how it could attract more clients and boost my confidence in my writing.

Jesse is consistently professional and responsive, often replying in real time. His feedback is detailed and well structured, combining Loom voice recordings with on screen annotations. This allowed me to both hear and see his insights clearly, and revisit them whenever I needed.

Whenever I struggled with doubt or creative blocks, he understood right away and offered practical tips to help me move forward. Jesse shares his knowledge generously, offering clear, actionable advice I could apply immediately. During our coaching period, I also gained access to his online courses, a perfect complement to our sessions.

Jesse truly elevates and understands his students. I warmly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their writing and online presence. Don’t miss the chance to work with him!

Who is Jesse Forrest?

With more than 20 years of experience in copywriting, I have trained executives and marketing teams at world class brands such as Chanel, Disney and Sony. 

I have also written for hundreds of businesses across 153 industries, giving me a deep understanding of how to craft copy that delivers real results.

Unlike most gurus who sell “make money with copywriting” courses without any real‑world experience, I’m actually a working freelance copywriter who continues to work with clients.

My passion is helping you build a freelance copywriting business that matches your goals and your lifestyle. Whatever that looks like for you.

Freelance copywriting has given me the freedom to work from beautiful locations around the world.

In 2016 I packed a suitcase and a backpack and left Australia for good. Since then I have travelled around the world and lived in beautiful locations like Thailand, Colombia, Bali and Japan.

Whether you want to travel the world, or simply have the freedom to work when and where you want, freelance copywriting can help you get there.

Frequently asked questions and answers

What is your coaching program?
My coaching program is a six‑session, one‑on‑one mentorship designed to turn beginners into confident freelance copywriters.

Over 6–12 weeks, we meet live on Google Meet for one‑hour sessions. After each call you’ll get clear, practical assignments and direct feedback.

Together we’ll pick your niche, build an impressive portfolio, optimize your online presence, set premium rates, create a client‑getting system, and master project delivery and referrals. This is a hands-on business‑building experience for people who are ready to start freelance copywriting.
This coaching is for people who are ready to launch their freelance copywriting career now, not someday in the distant future. You should be prepared to invest both time and money, and be genuinely interested in honing your writing craft. If you’re coachable, open to feedback, and able to dedicate a few hours each week to complete assignments and take action, you’ll thrive in this program.
Once you sign up and complete payment, you will receive an invoice and a welcome email with instructions on how to register for the coaching calls. The calls are held online via the Google Meet web‑conferencing platform at a time that suits both you and Jesse—whether that’s weekly, every two weeks, or once a month.
No, you don’t need any professional writing background or university degree. I’ve built my career without formal qualifications, and so have many successful freelance copywriters over the past 20 years.
Each session is one hour, and you’ll spend roughly two hours on the assignment that follows. Beyond that, it really depends on your schedule and pace. We can space sessions weekly, fortnightly, or even monthly to fit your schedule.
The coaching program provides you with actionable strategies to consistently attract clients and implement proven methods for securing clients. Jesse offers guidance, support, and tried-and-tested methods to help you land paying clients.

However, it’s important to note that no one can guarantee results. Factors such as market conditions, competition, hiring policies, economic trends, personal effort, and client budgets are beyond Jesse’s control.

That said, the copywriters who achieve success are typically those who consistently market themselves, remain open to feedback, and adapt if their initial approach doesn’t work. The coaching program is designed to equip you with the knowledge to take these steps effectively
There are no refunds. We encourage people to do their own due diligence by reading this page carefully, asking questions during the discovery call, and then deciding if this program is right for you.
