HEY I'M CHRIS
I’ve Sold $100M+ Worth Of Products Using Email.
However...
I’m the farthest thing from an "overnight success". Take a look...
2013:
The Beginning
May 2013
After wrestling Division 1 and majoring in Sociology (lol), I graduate from Rutgers University with a Bachelors and Masters Degree.
September 2013
First day of teaching (my day job). Right from the start, I know I don’t want to work a “job” for the rest of my life. But I’m not sure what else I could do…
October 2013
I launch my very first website – a strength and conditioning blog that would serve as my sandbox for learning all about the world of online business and marketing.
2014:
Wrestling
Coach Academy
This is where I start cutting teeth by growing my first email list, launching my first product, creating viral content (with one article getting 48,000 views in 72 hours), selling affiliate offers, and hosting one of the first ever podcasts in the wrestling niche.
2015:
The Email
Copywriter Is Born
May 2015
I land my first paying copywriting client where I get paid $300 to write an Amazon product description, a handful of emails, a package insert, website copy, and a few social media posts for a small resistance band company in Australia.
I’m surprised someone is willing to pay me to write something for them…
I also realize this is what I want to do for the rest of my life… and that I’ve found my “thing”.
December 2015
I launch theemailcopywriter.com
2016:
Million Dollar Launches (Part 1)
I write the copy for Filippo Loreti’s second Kickstarter launch.
We wind up generating $5,170,445 in 30 days and earn the distinction of being “The #1 Most Funded Timepiece Project Ever On Kickstarter”.
At the time, it is the 18th largest Kickstarter campaign of all time — regardless of product category.
Not long after that, I start writing the first (of many) multi-million dollar digital product launches for John Assaraf and his team at NeuroGym.
2017:
Million Dollar Launches (Part 2)
June 2017
I quit my teaching job to officially become my own boss and a full-time email copywriter.
October 2017
We launch a brand new collection for Filippo Loreti on Kickstarter… and this one ends up doing $4,400,000+ (USD) in 30 days.
Meanwhile, Neurogym’s 6th Annual Brain-A-Thon also ends up generating $1,200,000+ in sales in eight hours… and becoming the biggest launch in the company’s history.
To this day, I consider this one of the most grueling launches of my life… with it requiring hundreds of pages of copy.
But we pulled it off and made it into a massive success.
2018:
From Jeff Walker To
Email Copy Academy
January 2018
Mike Yanda and Bobby Hoyt join forces to launch Laptop Empires and their first course, FB Side Hustle. I help them generate $139,000+ in four days… and another $100,000+ five weeks later with our re-launch.
Since then, they’ve gone on to build a powerhouse of a brand in the online business world. And the funnel I worked on has been crankin’ out sales week in, week out… to the tune of $2,500,000+ to date.
