Here's how you can demonstrate your independence and initiative as a copywriter.

It starts with finding your voice. Writing styles are like fingerprints. It's a balance between matching the brand and tone of the company you're working with, while adding some of you into the mix. Initiative comes in your delivery of work. They want three options, send them more than that and explain the reasoning behind each option and how it relates to their messaging/campaign goals. Seek out additional training. Ask for support from senior leaders, never thing you've arrived. There's always room to get better and it starts with relentless curiosity.

To showcase your independence and initiative as a copywriter, take ownership of your projects. Start by proactively researching and brainstorming ideas without constant supervision. When faced with challenges, try to come up with creative solutions on your own before seeking help. Additionally, take on additional tasks or propose new projects that align with your expertise and interests. For instance, if you notice a gap in the company's content strategy, suggest a plan to fill it. Demonstrating your autonomy and drive can make you a valuable asset to any team.

A different angle is to write copy that is so deliberately terrible that it fools people into thinking that it's actually a new style of copy.

As a copywriter, you can show independence by taking on projects without always needing to be told what to do. Take initiative by coming up with new ideas and solutions to problems without waiting to be asked. Show your skills by completing tasks on time and making sure they're done well.

We should not stay behind the curtain and keep on asking clients what they need more of, which could lead to their 100% satisfaction. As copywriters, we should showcase our independence in coming up with creative ideas through deep technical and trend research. Don't miss the deadlines, and give your best to exceed your clients expectations. Have a good day, everyone!

More often than not, people above us don't know what goes on behind the scenes when we create copy. If you want to make it clear that you know what you're doing, give them a peek behind the scenes. Did they ask for an "About Us" section, but they don't have a brand voice? Present that. Create a proposal for some brand voice guidelines (which you'll have to do anyway to write anything for them). Is their brief lacking crucial information? Go ahead and fill it in yourself. But when you present, walk them through what you had to do to overcome the hole in their brief. The more you let people into your process at the start, the less they'll question or micromanage your deliverables.
