Trainer

Ken Kirwan, Copywriter and Director at Copybox.

Ken worked as a copywriter for 98FM and across the Communicorp group for almost ten years.  He also worked as a sales consultant in 98FM for 5 years.  He is now director of his own company, Copybox. Through his experience, Ken understands the frustrations of the copywriter whose scripts are rejected by the client, the headaches of the production guy/girl who has to make do on a shoestring or no budget and the pressures on the sales person to just ‘get the damn thing on air’ and reach sales targets.
