The Antidote to Boring Copy

Watch Now. Keep Forever.

Perfectionists, stop overthinking and write copy like the weirdo you are!

In this 90 minute challenge, you’ll clear away the cobwebs of “good marketing” and write like an actual human that cares.

By the end of the call, you’ll have an ad, email, or big chunk of a landing page - done.

Not following a template or with douche-y sales speak.

But by getting out of your own way.

Letting your copy sound as brilliant, delightful, and odd as the work your clients already love.

Only $50 - Just kidding, it’s 50% off with code HAC50


When I wrote “good copy,” I had a newsletter with 20 subscribers and a failed business. When I wrote like a weirdo, I got 11,000 subscribers and $10K a month.

“The way Amber broke down things down made writing feel doable, not hard or impossible like it usually does. I have no problem generating ideas but I never get over the hurdle of turning those ideas into words on paper, but during the Challenge, I finally did!”

- Jordyn Chartier


You’ll experience:

  • Half-assing as the antidote to perfectionism

  • The 2% milk rule to change how you think about perfectionism forever

  • Harnessing your natural creative weirdness to make marketing that demands attention

  • Inner critic calm so you can write without Statler & Waldorf on your shoulder

  • Exercises to use when “it’s not good enough,” “no one will want this” or “this SUCKS!!!!!!!!!” is all that’s running through your mind

  • Tricks to let yourself write faster, with less doubt

  • How much you can write in only 17.5 minutes! Spoiler: it’s a lot

This Challenge is 1 call, 90 minutes.

Because you don’t need 37 days to form a habit or whatever number people are using for that made up stat right now.

You need to challenge yourself once to let go of marketing rules and get back to what makes your work brilliant in the first place.

When you feel that difference in your work? That it’s so much faster, easier, and enjoyable to write copy this way, you won’t go back.

And on the days you need a reminder, replay the workshop and reignite the spark.

People finished ads, web copy, and marketing emails - during the workshop.

Your copy will finally feel like you.

And you’ll be excited to write more.

Hello, I’m a perfectionist

Also, my name is Amber Petty and I’ve written for the New York Times, Thrillist, Greatist, Bustle, MTV, IFC, and a bunch more (including Snooki’s blog, are you jealous?). In the last 4.5 years, I grew my newsletter to over 11,000 subscribers and made over $830,000 in my business that helps creative get more attention.

When I started, I came fresh off of two failed newsletters, a failed business, and a failed acting career. Yay!

What changed? I decided to be my full weird self.

Instead of being precious about my copy and worrying about “bothering everyone’ with my marketing, I did what felt fun. If that meant cussing up a storm and using Little Mermaid quotes in marketing emails, by gum I did it.

Instead of hoards of internet haters throwing digital pitchforks, I found an audience. An audience that liked what I did and paid me for more.

If I stayed a “do everything right” perfectionist, my business wouldn’t be here.

Being a slightly messy weirdo unafraid to put up stuff despite “let me just tweak this ONE THING” running through my brain? I have a 6-figure business, get to express my creativity every day (and get paid), and help other lovely oddballs get over “bothering” people and cut to the “shut up and take my money” stage.

Truly, half-assing it is the first step.

Take a break from your perfectionism and see what you can really do.
