Just got a brief that directly contradicts the client’s brand values—and they know it. Think wellness brand suddenly pushing scarcity tactics and fake urgency. I don’t want my name attached to manipulative copy, but I also want to keep the client. How do you handle ethical gray areas when the check is tempting?

How old were you when you started as a junior copywriter?

I don't know if this is a recent change but I’m seeing postings for junior copywriter/community manager roles. Have these roles always been attached or posted at a junior level? Is this merged role worth considering as someone young in the industry with more traditional intern and freelance copy experience.

Is it a red flag to interview with a potential new agency that I'd have to move to a different state for and they never give you a chance to ask any questions or fly you out to meet in person?

Working with a Junior AD who’s too opinionated & doesn’t respond to my feedback well. He’ll just show ideas that I’ve already debunked/scripts that aren’t very good, which makes me look bad. Advice?

"Use the approved language."

"Why'd you use this language?"

Anyone do any work in web3/blockchain/metaverse?

Today is supposed to be our “day off.” I always laugh when I see emails announcing special days off. What’s even funnier are the reminders about “half days.” Hilarious.

Are puns always bad? I like them as cheat codes for making boring things slightly more entertaining. I don’t want to spend hours thinking for a line for a social post we are just doing to fill up a content calendar

Do you find that you speak figuratively or in analogies more than non-copywriters?

How do you say “buy this product” in a headline without saying “buy this product”?

Sincerely,
A Junior Copywriter with a shitty brief and an even shittier turnover time 😭😭🥹

Sick of writing emails client-side all day and can’t seem to get into an agency. What’s another career path for a copywriter? Getting too old to try and become a teacher or anything.

Who’s working in house in LA? Where? Doing what?

Trying to break into advertising, specifically copywriting.

Are there any programs, schools, or courses that I can complete online while also working full time? Thanks!
