Am A Graduate Of Business Education With Lot Of Sales And Write Ups. Presently I Discovered My Passion For Ad Copywriting And In Order To Enhance My Knowledge, Have Read Many Books On It. Since I Discovered This Site, Most Of My Copy Questions Are Rightly Answered. I Need Someone Who Will Take Me As Novice And A Wannabe And Tell Me How To Go Through Stages To Be Aclaimed Copywriter And Also How Is Life As A Copywriter? Thank You.

Yicob,

Marcia Yudkin offers a mentoring program. You can find it on her site at Creative Marketing Solutions and Published! - Marcia Yudkin's Web Sites.

She also offers a home study course, which is not as expensive.

I took the one-on-one course, which was expensive, but it got me off to a good start. It didn't include direct response copywriting, which is the most lucrative copywriting niche. And at the time, I was dead-set against doing direct response copywriting.

Since then, I've changed my tune, and am working with Tina Lorenz, a fabulous DR copywriter. She has a wonderful new membership site called G4. It costs $97 a month to join.

You can find out more about G4 on my blog at Copywriting Tips for Newbies.

Ryan Healy recently came out with a nice ebook on how to find your first client. The cost is $49. I have a link to that on the blog as well.

These are not affiliate links (believe me, they would be if WordPress allowed it).

That blog recommends some other nice resources (and includes links to them) like Bencivenga Bullets.

I highly recommend Tina Lorenz's blog at Authentic Copy - Home and Ryan Healy's blog, On Copywriting. I can't remember the website address, but once again, there is a link on my blog.

I hope this is helpful.
