One of the things I’ve noticed in recent times is that a lot of product builders and indie hackers are starting to share their thoughts on improving soft skills to be an even better product builder.
Skills like writing are the ones that get mentioned the most - after reading one such TW post a few months back I asked myself what’s the best way to improve writing? Not surprisingly daily practice was in the first place. However, what’s in second place might surprise you. It’s having a Copy Buddy.
A copy buddy is a well-established practice in the world of copywriting courses and it’s essentially an accountability partner. It’s someone with similar goals that joins you on your path to becoming a better writer.
After doing all this research I wanted to get a copy buddy for myself as well as for some other people from my office. What I found was that there is no unified way of getting a copy buddy. Instead, people search through FB groups, subreddits, and twitter threads in search of a suitable partner.
Enter HeyCopy: a curated community / portal where product builders and indie hackers who want to improve their writing can find a suitable copy buddy.
HeyCopy is a place with:
- alligned incentives,
- matching based on goals and experiences,
- vetting and curating of everyone that joins and
- reviews that keep everyone honest.
I hope you’ll check it out and join us if you’re interested in becoming a better writer!
