With my oldest kid, I hear YouTubers Tanner Fox and Jake Paul in the background at my house almost daily. From my youngest, it’s Blippi and Titi Toys.

The voices are familiar (albeit grating, at times) background noise around here.

 

Now, we all have our “thing” we consult YouTube for. And every YouTuber has their “thing.”

Vloggers have their vlogs.

Cross-stitchers have their Flosstube.

And copywriters?

We need a name for what we have, doncha think?

CopyTube, anyone?

 

Anyhow, you have to do a little digging to find some really great YouTube channels for copywriters. Thankfully, I’ve come across some really excellent ones through my involvement in the copywriting world, research, or pure serendipity.

Based on my own findings and some good recommendations, I’ve cultivated the most relevant, informative list of copywriting YouTubers worth paying attention to.

[Remember what I said about competition? I guess theoretically, all of these people are my competition in some way, but I don’t do competition.]

Cue up your playlist, because you’re going to be inside it for awhile.
