What would it take to get an entry-level position as a copywriter?

I have a degree in Business but haven't taken many writing courses that I can add to my resume – but I CAN write. So what would be suggested to get such a position without any "real" experience or formal training in such an area.

Set up a blog, write articles and post on ezine and article directories. You can put your link back to your blog and if you are good, people will find you. Be sure to put some affiliate links on your blog to monitize it.

    WOW them with an absolutely spectacular presentation!!! That's what they WANT, right?

    I got just such a job in the 80's by stenciling STOP across the top of red paper and copying some sutff afterwards that had NOTHING to do with my experience and everything to do with being utterly convincing.

    It worked!!

    Go for it.
