HOLD YER 🐴 JUST WHO IS THE NATIVE AD BANDIT?
In the world of copywriting, they know me by one name:
The native ad bandit. 🤠
Many moons ago, I was but a lowly junior copywriter.
But now, I’m something of a … copywriting vigilante.
I roam the highways of the wild wild web, in search of any copy to—
🛑 WAIT 🛑
Who am I kidding?
Nobody calls me the “native ad bandit.” Not even ME. That would be super weird.
I call myself … David. Howdy.
👋
It’s a fitting title, though. I’ve become quite good at writing this type of copy.
Thing is … everyone’s definition of a “native ad” is different.
For the sake of this landing page (and my career), let’s define them as ads that fit “naturally” into the placement they’re running on.
Often to the point where you can’t tell that it’s an ad.
THINK:
“Informational” list-based articles that are actually sponsored posts
Ads placed inside of emails
Emails that don’t look like ads but are ads
Text message ads with 💩 emojis
Those weird-ass social media ads that never fail to get you to click

STOP!
You were not supposed to scroll this far.
Buuut if you’re reading this, then you probably need a little more *oomph* to get you going.
And to that I say … have you tried … like … Viagra or something?
NO?
Ugh.
😒
I guess I’ll dazzle you with 7 🔥 sizzling 🔥 factoids about myself instead.
Senior Copywriter for a 3x Inc 5000 Fastest Growing Company in the personal finance niche. I run their copy team.
Former “go-to” freelance ad copywriter for the Hustle (2M+ subs) in summer 2020 … right when businesses were dropping creative teams faster than you were dropping money on bulk TP.
Rock climber who’s learning, okay?
VERY vegan. I don’t care if you aren’t … but I do talk about it. You’ve been warned. 😜
Average trail runner.
Lover of all things self-improvement — meditation, journaling, stoicism.
Not a fan of social media. Even if the memes are fire. And even if my wife does show me her ‘Toks before bed. 😤
Literally wrote this sales page after a 1,071-foot ascent up the side of a cliff during a trail run. Learn more about this weird method of “dissociated” copywriting by signing up for my daily emails.
AH SHIT.
I just realized … that was 8 sizzling factoids. 😒
STILL NO?
Even after that *perfect* Dwight Schrute reference?
Hmmmmmmm.
Perhaps you’re not a good fit for my list.
I do make a lot of references to The Office, after all … and you’ll need to keep up.
No matter.
These clients ❤️ me … mostly.
