    Today Matt and Kristy-Lee are joined by special guest Sanki Tennakoon from Stellar Frequency. Sanki is a genre spanning content writer, copywriter and consultant who has over a decade of experience in marketing and communications.

    Today we get straight into the questions many of us ask–‘what is a copywriter ’and really, how can they help our businesses?

    Right out of the gate Sanki shares a really important distinction between ‘content writing’ and copywriting, and we delve into the distinction between these two things and why both are incredibly valuable and important.

    1. Do a Budget;

    2. Regularly review actual v budgeted;

    3. Overestimate expenses;

    4. Know your sales cycle;

    5. Debtors are bad;

    6. Personal V business expenses;

    7. Don’t use GST and PAYGW to fund your business.
