I grew up in the village with my parents.

.
My mum was a trader, she goes to the north to get some goods to sell in our local markets.

.
One time she travelled and came back with bags of groundnut and other grains to sell wholesale.

.
It was during the long holidays, so I decided to take one bag of groundnut and retail it.

.
That would allow me to save some money and brag to my fellow students when school resumes.

.
I have planned on how I am going to be a big girl and make enough do you know who I am kind of a thing?

.
I had wanted to join the pepper-them, gang group.

.
I also envisaged how the next school section will be in my head and I can't wait for school to resume.

.
Did it ever happen? No.

.
So back to the bag of groundnut that I will sell to raise money.

.
Because my mum owns the peanut business, I told her it was going to be a sale on credit, when I sell I will pay her.

.
I started my business, it was then I realised how much I hated selling, coupled with the fact that I am a very shy person.

.
It didn't end well at last because I couldn't sell up to the capital not to talk of profit.

.
Since then I have hated selling, I try to run far away from anything that has to do with sales or marketing because to me it sounded sweet but tasted like bitter kola.

.
But how can I make money if I continue to run from it?

.
So I decided to face my fears and that is when I found out about copywriting.

.
Like some people, I had thought it was about the right to ownership of a property like copyright but when I dived more into it, I was shocked to know that;

.
1. Copywriting is about selling

2. Copywriting is the act of writing words that convert better.

3. Copywriting is salesmanship in print, not a trade mark. Copywriting is using written words to start, enhance or extend a relationship with a customer.

4. I also found out it is a high-income skill, that you can learn to make loads and tons of money.

5. Every business whether online or offline needs a copywriter in their beautiful life.

.
The number four opened my ear antenna because who wouldn't like to make money? Nobody.

.
So because of that, I decided to swallow the bitter pills and I must say, it is no longer bitter but now as sweet as honey.
