Dear Copywriter:

What's the highest paid copywriting specialty in the world?

Without a doubt, it's writing direct response copy – in particular, direct mail – to sell nutritional supplements and related health products to consumers.

More than $30 billion worth of nutritional supplements are sold annually in the United States, with nearly two out of three Americans taking at least one supplement.

I regularly write promotions for several clients in the nutritional supplement industry, charging anywhere from $7,500 to $12,500 per sales letter.

Many of my copywriting colleagues charge even more.

• CM, a seven-figure copywriter, gets a staggering $25,000 per project for nutritional supplement promotions plus a hefty mailing fee.
• CC, another colleague, is booked months in advance and earns more than half a million dollars a year – and supplement mailings are practically all she writes.
• DM makes over $400,000 a year as a copywriter specializing in nutritional supplements and financial promotions ... and now owns his own successful supplement business.

There are 3 reasons why nutritional supplement marketing is the highest paid copywriting specialty in the world.

First, supplements are a discretionary product. A diabetic has to take insulin. But vitamins, herbs, and minerals are rarely mandatory. You may desire the benefit of improved health. But almost no one is required to buy supplements.

Second, direct response marketing of nutritional supplements is a copy-driven business. Offers, lists, and formats are important. But what determines how many orders a supplement mailing pulls is mainly the copy.

Third, there's immense competition in nutritional supplements. So strong copy is needed to differentiate your product, stand out, and be heard above all the noise.

Plus, even a small increase in response rates can translate into many thousands of dollars in extra sales for the marketer.

No wonder dietary supplement makers are more than happy to pay $10,000 to $15,000 or more to writers who understand how to sell pills, capsules, and tablets to health-conscious direct response buyers!

Make six figures a year writing for the supplement market

With only a few exceptions, the top direct response copywriters today – those earning six and seven figures -- write for clients in the nutritional supplement market.
