97: The Summer of Ease - a get-er-done workshop for business owners who want to enjoy a little time off in the summer
What’s your ideal summer?
Is it working only 2 or 3 days a week and having a summer filled with long weekends?
Is it camping for a couple weeks in the mountains where there’s no wi-fi or charging stations?
Is it taking a whole month off to hang with your kids or fur babies?
Or is it taking focused time to get ahead on a big project you’ll launch in the fall?
For me personally, I’m looking for a summer of ease. I want to work a little less, check out some summer music festivals, go camping, and read a few fiction books.
Whatever your goal is, I want to help you set yourself up for success! In this episode of ill communication, I’m sharing a workshop I’m hosting next week to help you create your very own Summer of Ease.

[00:00:03] Welcome to ill communication, copywriting tips and sales strategies for small business. I'm your host, Kim Keel. I'm a copy coach, sales strategist, and direct response copywriter. It's my mission to help women leaders and change makers amplify their voices through copy. It's why I'm dishing out all the juicy tips, writing prompts, and sales formulas to help you generate more leads, book more calls, and get more high value clients on repeat. Sounds pretty good. It's time to ditch the overwhelm you might be feeling and find confidence in your copywriting so you can get your message out there and attract more soulmate clients. Let's get started.
[00:00:52] Hello, hello and welcome.
[00:00:53] To episode 97 and I am ready for summer. I don't know about you, but I have a question. What is your ideal summer? Is it working only 2 or 3 days a week and having a summer filled with long weekends? Is it camping for a couple of weeks in the mountains where there's no Wi-Fi or charging stations? Is it taking a whole month off to hang with your kids or your fur babies? Or is it taking focused time to get ahead on a big project you'll launch in the fall? For me personally, I'm looking for a summer of ease. I want to work a little less. I want to have the time and space to check out the summer music festivals. I want to go on a few camping and hiking trips. I'd love to do a couple of canoe and paddleboard trips as well, and I want to read a few fiction novels. Mostly, I want to have the option to do any of the above and not feel guilty or regretful about taking the time off. Whatever your goal is, I want to help you set yourself up for success. That is why, my sweet friend, you're invited to a workshop I'm hosting next week to help you create your very own summer of ease. During this 90 minute workshop, you'll pre-write a fun and sales focused email autoresponder so you can stay out of your inbox without missing any sales.
[00:02:23] I'll share a couple of different templates and examples so you can create a delightful and on brand out-of-office message that makes people smile and engage further with you and your content. Even when you're on a break, you'll get proven copy recipes to pre-write and schedule your emails or social posts so you can enjoy a few stress free days away from the office you'll get for seasonal and fun writing prompts that you can use to cut down on your thinking and writing time. You'll be more productive and less time with less effort. I'm going to share how to remix your existing content so it looks like you're still working and showing up, even if you're actually sipping mimosas in the garden. I'm really excited about this. I'm going to show you some of the out of the box ways I remix and repurpose content, and how I've done it for clients as well. I'll share a few brilliant examples of how I've seen other very successful marketers remix their content to this section alone will create so much ease for you, not just for the summer, but for your whole content calendar. We're also going to create a Q4 copy and content plan, so you can head into the summer holidays with less stress, because you'll have an easy to follow plan in place for the busy back to school fall and year end launch season.
[00:03:52] And now, here's why. Sometimes summer derails our momentum. And then we hit September and feel a little behind the eight ball. So to avoid any of that post summer regret, we're going to look at our fall calendars and make sure we're not going to sabotage our future workload. We'll make sure that the copy and content we share over the next couple of months will set us up for success in Q4, and everyone's favorite, we'll have time for live copy coaching so you can bring some writing and get it optimized and live edited. Or you can use this time to work on the copy prompts and templates I'll share, which means you'll get some of those tasks pre-written and off your to do list. This seasonal get it Done workshop is one of my most popular, so make sure you save your seat and block the time in your calendar to attend. The Summer of ease is hosted on Zoom on June 12th from 9 to 10:30 a.m. Mountain Time. It's free, but you must attend live to get access to all the templates, prompts and live coaching. Go over and get all the details and register at khimky. Com slash Summer. If you've attended one of my workshops in the past, you know you're going to get a big bang for your buck. And if you haven't hung out with me at a workshop before, this would be a great one to attend.
[00:05:16] Your future self will thank you for spending a little time now to get organized, and then enjoy a guilt free summer of ease.
