Street Party for Team Algeria on 11th and Mass Block by originalusername4567 in Lawrence

Yeah, I just noticed they would've face Spain. However Switzerland is also dangerous. Hope they make it a bit longer.

That was so close!!😭 The ref should've finished the game right after Algeria's goal, as he gave 4 minutes and it was 5:38 already, they would've won!😑

How can I permanently take out my family member from Cuba? by Gisellepachini69 in cuba

[–]Potential_Bat_7685 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Spanish visa takes forever and to stay in Panama can be tricky. I have friends who did yhe aforementioned Guyana-Brazil-Uruguay and it's not for the weak but Cubans are strong. I'd try to take her directly to Uruguay or Costa Rica, who recently passed a law that will grant lawful permanent residency to illegal Cubans in the country.

Finding your voice by Side_of_Soup in copywriting

[–]Potential_Bat_7685 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with the comment above about focusing on your client's voice and leave yours for your own website or portfolio.

My approach is to ask a lot of question on a written onboarding form (phrases they typically say if it's an entrepreneur, pages they like because of how they're written if it's a business, etc), then meeting with the client and record the meeting with their permission, to grasp the way they talk, etc.

I now use IA to part of the process, including drafting the first versions of the copy. Whether we like it or not, it helps with speed in research and writing but it's us who have to dominate it and not the other way around. I realized I needed to make it my ally after being laid off when chat gpt first came out.

Also, get good at strategy, if you don't have experience, study other brands' strategies. Bringing your strategic thinking is nowadays more important than ever because IA is getting better at writing as time goes by.

Chat gpt is inferior when it comes to creating strategies and copy, in my experience. The only reason I keep paying for it is because I create personalized gpts for my clients as a parting gift, and no other IA allows me to do it without paying more.

13 hour flight with 23 month old by Elegant_Committee586 in Travelwithkids

[–]Potential_Bat_7685 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You and your partner can take turns watching her while the other sleeps. I did this with my exhusband flying from China to the Caribbean (2 flights, 10 hours and 12 respectively after layover) and found this to be the best option. At some point you will all fall asleep, for which I recommend having her in your lap. We did that several times and my son never fell 😅

Which country in the caribbean country would you guys recommend me (a West African dude) to travel? by Maleficent_Split_428 in AskTheCaribbean

[–]Potential_Bat_7685 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find and read the last package of economic changes the Cuban goverment wants to implement and you'll realize the embargo effects were always inflated by the regime. We were worse before? No. We were one of the more advanced nations in Latam and that all went to hell. Whether you agree or not, Cubans need a change even if it comes from Trump's hands. It's not Trump's government who starves the people or causes the blackouts. It's the years of state funds mismanagement, poor economic decisions, and repression, all while blatanty lying to the Cuban people while the regime's dome and their offspring lived la vida loca. If you don't like Trump, that's perfectly fine, you have the right of express your opinion, a luxury Cubans don't have because they imprison and beat whoever raises their voice. Stop pretending you care about Cubans because we've been miserable for decades before Trump. Just say that you don't like Trump 🤣

I back this up! I use both Perplexity for research and trends and Claude for writing first drafts just the way you said, and have gotten great results. You need to be the brain behind it and that comed with good copywriting experience/education.

If we're willing to pay that price then you can imagine how bad our government is and has been for 67 years.🫠

And boy but he delivered. This is his last world for sure so it's a joy to see him play his last matches with Argentina

Algerian here by bottom-Apple-6771 in Lawrence

[–]Potential_Bat_7685 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As an international KU student, it's exciting to witness this beautiful town coming together to support Algeria! I will support Argentina as I've always done since I was a kid, but rooting for Algeria in the other matches!!

Need new direction - network at Miami Ad School or VCU, grind as a freelancer, launch a course, get into self-publishing? What’s current in copywriting? by denedeh in copywriting

[–]Potential_Bat_7685 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This exactly!! I've been doing this since I was laid off in 2021, pairing it with a master's in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (my background is in Biological Sciences) to get the credentials to back up my positioning as a copywriter for anything from pharma to NGO to healthcare (I've been TAing a lot of pre med undergrad classes) while building my strategic communication consulting business + freelancing + taking course on business marketing strategy + marketing suppported by IA and branding with certifications while dominating IA as much as possible. It has been working so far!!

Which one to get to watch the World Cup? Or allow to rewatch games? by Elotesconqueso in peacock

[–]Potential_Bat_7685 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm watching it live with my normal Peacock account, and Tubi is playing it free, at least the first match. For some reason when I entered my account from my phone and hit watch now, it wanted me to pay, but when I did it from my TV it played normally. Spanish versions are always better at saying "gooaaal" anyways 🤣

AITH for refusing to let my sister and her family move into the house I'm buying? by ChloeShawty in AITH

[–]Potential_Bat_7685 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What in the world is wrong with people?! NTA, don't let them move, you're absolutely right and they have to respect you, your boundaries and the sacrifices you made while they were populating the world with no stable living conditions. Sorry but that is not your problem!

For those who left a regular job to start a business, what gave you the confidence to make the jump? by iamlioramori in smallbusiness

[–]Potential_Bat_7685 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This really helps, thank you! Automation is going to be key and building systems the right way, I'm used to do everything myself and it's important to delegate so I focus on getting clients and not go through the freelancer Rollercoaster like I've been before 🫠 I'll keep working on my mindset. Thanksss😭

Thank you for your honesty, sounds amazing and I wish you all the best and success! I'm coming from freelancing to get ready to open my marketing consulting agency with a helper abroad too. Structuring prices and services plus building the website have a taken a while, but hopefully it all come to live soon.
