The Fix #84: Why all good copywriters should always be adding to their swipe file with Nick Laight

Today, Nick Laight is the founder of his own successful information business, Canonbury Publishing.

But once upon a time, Nick was the first copywriter to be employed by Agora in the UK.

He was mentored by Bill and Mark and went on to found the first Agora copywriting team in the UK, starting a chain reaction that eventually led to me and Nick.

So, it was a pleasure to sit down with Nick for this third instalment of our deep-dive into the Agora-verse.

We talk about what it was like to get feedback via fax, where to find inspiration, and what it takes to be a successful copywriter in the financial publishing world.

It’s a great episode and we hope you enjoy it.

And remember, we’ve got two more Agora-verse specials still to come this week, including a very different kind of chat with the legendary Mark Ford himself.

Best,
Glenn
