Join us for the 2025 planning party on January 15!
When you started your business, you probably didn’t realize just how much writing would be involved.
...not to mention getting the words out (so you can get your offers out into the world).

- getting an objective perspective on your brand
- and getting focused on the marketing with the biggest ROI for your business
(And the unfinished copywriting templates and courses only get you so far.)
You're not a bad marketer or writer. Maybe you even enjoy it sometimes.
But you probably also have a hard time...
There’s always a sales page to update, email to send, or landing page to write.
because, as you've come to learn, words sell.

This isn't just about learning to write better copy.
- Kristy Black,
Brand Strategist & Designer
Cassie provided such clear guidance, shared industry-standard best-practices, and taught me new ways of thinking about my copy that I'll use for years to come.
If you're feeling this nagging sense that your copy needs some love, I can't recommend Cassie or the Draft House enough!”
“Like most entrepreneurs, I've been writing a lot of my own copy for a while, but I knew it was time to work with Cassie when EVERY piece of writing felt like pulling teeth.
member testimonial
Kinda like having your own copywriter, messaging strategist & marketing coach
(WITHOUT THE 5-FIGURE INVESTMENT)
You’ll still write your copy, but you’ll also be honing your marketing skills with a lot more focus and guidance.
With a plan we’ll come up with together, you’ll start taking action on day one and will receive a ton of personal feedback on your strategy and copy.
You’ll have a place to turn when you have just a quick question about email marketing or lead magnets or launching.
And you’ll be learning alongside a handful of other values-driven business owners who are just as committed to getting sh*t done as you are.
Because learning is nice. But knocking out your biggest, most exciting goals is even nicer.

What makes the Draft House different?
a private strategy session
To map out your goals for the duration of our time together, identify your biggest opportunities for strengthening your messaging and marketing, and come up with your priority action items to get support with during our time together.
One-on-one strategy
Asynchronous when it makes sense
Live when you need it
To help you talk it out (and get it done).
For continuous support on your schedule.
For feedback and advice that’s always personal.
Small-group format
For accessible pricing, learning by proxy, and solopreneur solidarity.
Here's a detailed look at what's included...
Monthly copy hot seat REVIEWS
Where you can submit your written copy, draft, or outline for my personal feedback.
Hot Seats are recorded over Loom and shared in Slack, so you can review it on your own time, watch it as many times as you need, and learn from other members’ Hot Seats.
Monthly live workshops and Q&A
Each new season kicks off with an in-depth planning session to help you set goals and make the most of your Draft House membership. Plus, we'll have bonus live Hot Seats and Q&A.
Select workshops are paid and open to all, but as a Draft House member, you get a free ticket and front row seat.
You’ll even get access to all of the recorded trainings from past sessions.
Twice-weekly Slack Office Hours
To ask me your most burning questions, like:
“My site is getting traffic, but no leads. What are some ways I can optimize my copy?”
“What are some ideas for reengaging my list before my next launch?”
“What do you think of this headline for my sales page?”
“Can you recommend any tools or questions to ask to help me collect more testimonials?”
The best part? You can drop your questions in Slack anytime throughout the week. I’ll respond to the group’s questions using the voice note feature during Office Hours.
biweekly virtual coworking sessions
For dedicated time on your calendar to quietly work on your marketing together. As a virtual coworking fanatic, trust me when I say that body doubling works wonders on your productivity. (They’re also an opportunity to ask questions live!)
Coworking sessions are held on alternating days and times to accommodate members' availability and time zones.
quarterly live trainings with guest experts
Plus access to past guest bonus trainings including:
- Automate with Heart: Email Marketing Tech Setup with Bev Feldman
- Teaching ChatGPT Your Brand Voice with Kinsey Streib
- Blank Page to Blog Traffic with Inkpot Creative
- Regular to Revitalized Branding with Kristy Black
A curated training & resource library
- voice of customer survey template

This community isn’t just another obligation or distraction, but a place where you can learn from your peers, ask market research questions, get group feedback on something you’re working on, and get access to copy coaching from me when you need it.

— Nina Stoller-Lindsey, social media & marketing strategist
“I just have to say, I am having so much FUN in this program.
You have fully awakened my inner messaging and marketing strategy nerd. Well, she was awake before, but now she’s on crack!
This is what happens when I have another messaging and marketing nerd to talk to on the reg!”
member testimonial
— Kristen Finch, life coach
“Usually when someone asks me to describe what I do, I ramble because it feels like there's so many important parts I don't want to exclude. During our first call, she listened so thoughtfully and really seemed to intuitively hone in on the most important pieces which helped me really clarify my message. If you, like me, feel all over the place when it comes to your message, hire Cassie.
— Dr. Jillian Murphy, Food Freedom Body Love
“An incredibly thorough intake + 1:1 session helped me unearth important details about my work and offer that even I hadn't thought of. From there, Cassie was able to capture my voice and express the value of my work in the most incredible way. It was lots of fun to talk through my offer with Cassie, get clear on the value of it, and answer her thoughtful questions.
It made me fall in love with my work again!”
The way she kept me focused and clear - she might just be an ADHD whisperer.”
“Starting about six months ago, I began to have the sense that my words to describe my work weren't working. I was on an incredible upward trajectory professionally, and my website wasn't reflecting the energy of that. In fact, I was in complete denial about how much I hated everything about my website, which is the energetic foundation of my entire professional identity! It quickly became clear to me that I needed to start with new wording, and let that guide a complete renovation of my brand identity.
Cassie came into my life and with laser precision captured every facet of my work in a way that astonished even me.
She had the ability to help me stop over-thinking it. It's HARD to have your own practice, and surrender to allowing somebody else to come in and describe who you are professionally, and what you *do* for the entire world to read. I knew it would be very difficult for me to surrender to the process, and put my trust in a branding copywriter. But from that first moment that I received my first iteration of her copy, my entire being relaxed and I vowed to completely trust her vision. From there, it seemed effortless.
Let her have the space and the freedom she needs and she will come back to you with creative gold.”
— Kristy Sweetland, transformational coach for highly sensitive people
I had the sense that there were no words to describe the energy of my work. At times, I felt a bit overwhelmed and hopeless, wondering how a person like me—who navigates with big vision—could possibly dial it down enough to concisely describe transformational work. I was too close to it.
— Leanna Miller, owner of Wealth Elevator
“Before working with Cassie I felt like the ideas, thoughts and concepts in my head would never see the light of day.
But after working with Cassie, that limiting belief was immediately eliminated. I've never felt more seen and it was a pure joy to see her take my ideas and pen them to paper in a way that constantly makes me smile. She knows how to unpack the layers to get to the gold.
I really liked the way she dug into me and pulled out experiences and memories that led to connections I hadn't previously made. Answering your questions was like 2 years of talk-therapy in 2hrs. I am relieved and I am so confident about what I am selling because I know that when others read this copy what I do and how I can help them transform is clear, concise and genuine.
The deep dive was my favorite part because it really helped me connect some dots that I hadn't previously figured out and helped me better understand what my audience needs to hear from me.
If you want a copywriter who is going to get in your head and pull out the gold, be organized and have your audience wanting more then Cassie is your girl. You won't regret is because she has mastered her craft and really puts herself in your shoes to capture your voice in a way that I haven't seen others deliver on.”
To help you make the most of the available resources (and avoid getting overwhelmed by how much you *could* do), I recommend choosing a track to focus on each quarter.
Don't see what you need? New resources are added every quarter by request.

Solopreneurs like us have to do a lot of sh*t ourselves
PULL UP A BARSTOOL & MEET YOUR COPY COACH, cassie paton
Much as we’d like to, we don’t always have the luxury of investing in done-for-you service providers. (And there are only so many half-finished, self-paced courses we can take.)
That’s why I created the Draft House. Because I’m passionate about helping gutsy solopreneurs like you stand out from the sea of same-old and confidently attract more perfect-fit prospects.
While there’s nothing quite like outsourcing your copy to a pro, I believe copywriting is a skill worth honing – especially when you’re the face and voice of your brand.
By joining the Draft House, you'll have a place to turn when you need an expert pair of eyes, get stuck with writer's block, or have an idea you want to workshop.
So pour one out for the copywriting templates that got you this far. And meet me at the Draft House.

- Erin Taylor, OBM, Lunimae Systems & Strategies
Draft House member & former copywriting client
I joined the Draft House to improve my writing and strategic marketing processes. It has been so helpful to have a container to ask questions, have professional reviews, gain confidence, and learn. The material provided was thorough and thoughtful, and it’s obvious that Cassie cares deeply about this group.
The training sessions were interactive and informative, and I love the hot seat element to get feedback from Cassie. This part alone is worth joining for if you struggle with writing or planning out your marketing.
If consistency with marketing is your goal, The Draft House is perfect for you.”
Erin has been a Draft House member since August '23
Here’s what she has to say…
“I have never been as consistent with my marketing as I have during the Draft House.
Details person? I like the way you think.
FAQS
There are elements of both, although I'm primarily a strategist. I’m here to help you develop your marketing skills and improve your messaging strategy with straight-up feedback and advice (like a consultant) AND help you trust your instincts by helping you uncover your own answers when appropriate (like a coach). You might need one more than the other, and the Draft House is a flexible enough container for that.
The Draft House is a 3-month minimum membership. In addition to your private strategy session, we’ll meet 1x per month for the live calls and 1x per quarter for a bonus guest training. We’ll also have twice-monthly virtual coworking sessions, which are there to help you block off time for your marketing.
Everything else happens asynchronously in Slack, including twice-weekly Office Hours (voice notes welcome!) and monthly Copy Hot Seats (which I’ll record in Loom). I’ve designed this program to help you get sh*t done, not add one more thing to your plate.
Within the first month, you and I will meet for a private strategy session to map out your strengths, opportunities, goals, and priority action items. You’ll have access to monthly Copy Hot Seats where you’ll receive my feedback on your work, twice-weekly Office Hours held in Slack (I love using the voice note feature), and regular check-ins. It’s the perfect hybrid of group and 1:1 support. The group is intentionally kept small so everyone is able to get attention and feedback.
Want more support? You can get additional Copy Hot Seat reviews and strategy sessions at a special members-only rate.
I love business coaches and have invested in a few myself. Several past Draft House members had coaches while they were members of this program. They shared that the Draft House was a place where they could get more hands-on, in-depth marketing and copywriting support that most coaching programs don’t offer.
But if you have to pick ONE to invest in, and you're not sure whether the Draft House is the *right* direction, consider what your biggest challenge is right now:
Is it building or scaling your business? Hire a coach.
Creating a new offer suite? Hire a coach.
Hiring a team and developing your leadership skills? Hire a coach.
But if your biggest challenge or goal is...
🐙 Refining the way you talk about your business or offers in your marketing
🐙 Launching your offer
🐙 Writing better or sending more emails
🐙 Improving your funnel (or finally creating one)
...then you should join us in the Draft House.
The requirements are that you know what you do, who you do it for, and have experience doing/selling it. Usually, that’s people with at least a couple of years under their belt, but you might have more or fewer. (We all move at different paces.)
But for further context, I designed the Draft House with some of my favorite past clients in mind—like the solopreneur who hired me to write her sales page but couldn’t afford the full launch package (yet).
I also designed it with many of my peers in mind—like the people I met in a group coaching program who are skilled marketers but have a hard time zooming out to feel confident about their messaging and launch plan.
If you know you want to hire a copywriter at some point but can’t afford to quite yet, this program is for you.
If you want to fortify your brand/offer messaging and become a more confident marketer as a result, this program is for you.
If you’re ready to get sh*t done and know you’ll benefit from the structure, support, and guidance of a group program, this program is for you.
But…
If you will do literally anything to avoid marketing your business, this program probably won’t change your habits. (While you might experience some “mindset shifts” here, I’m not a mindset coach.)
If you are brand new in business or still figuring out your niche and offers, stick with the copywriting templates and courses for now.
If you’re outsourcing most of your marketing/copy and plan to keep it that way, let’s talk done-for-you copywriting services instead.
Live workshops and Q&As are typically held once a month on Wednesdays from 1-2:30pm ET.
Live coworking calls are on one Monday and one Thursday per month from 11:30am-1pm or 1-2:30pm ET.
Slack Office Hours are asynchronous. You can drop your questions any time, and I’ll respond to questions Tuesdays and Fridays.
Copy Hot Seat submissions are due on the fourth Wednesday of most months.
Dates/times are subject to change with reasonable notice.
Yup! All the workshops and live hot seats will be recorded, and you’ll be able to catch the replay within a day or two of the call. Coworking sessions will not be recorded.
All payments are nonrefundable. Cancellations may be allowed in rare and unforeseen circumstances only, and on a case-by-case basis. This policy reflects the time, effort, and resources I invest in every participant, as well as the limited number of spots offered for a more intimate and personal experience.
No refunds or pro-rated billing will be considered for those who do not participate, engage, remain open to input, and/or do the work required of them to obtain their desired results. Your active participation is a key factor in realizing the benefits of this program.

Cassie’s calm expertise and insightful messaging suggestions have been a game-changer in how I speak to my prospective clients and position myself as an educator and counselor.
Beyond all the amazing business help, working with her is also a blast. I can’t wait to gain even more insights in the next round!”
