When I was still a manufacturing engineer, I wanted extra income.
I looked for skills that fit me.
I found copywriting.
It seemed fun.
But I did not know where to start.
Then I met Jomar Hiario, my coach. He teaches Social Media Copywriting.
He said, “Take this short test first.” A DISC personality test. It was to find my strengths.
I did it fast.
The results came.
I was shocked.
Almost all of it was true about me.
I felt impressed.
The test maker must be smart.
It mixes DISC behavior and values.
It shows how I act and what drives me.
As an engineer, I know data gathering is key.
It is the first step in all problem-solving.
We fix problems with facts.
No guesswork.
So when I saw copywriting needs research too, I got excited.
Jomar showed me how. I joined his course.
I learned to research well for good copy.
I invest time now in data and facts before I write.
I am introvert too.
The test showed that.
It matched my quiet side.
This blog shares my DISC results.
I will explore my strengths and my weakness too.
I will show how I can excel as a funnel and email marketing strategist and copywriter.
I use deep research.
It fits my style perfect.
My DISC Scores: A Quick Look
The test has four main parts.
D for Decisive.
I for Interactive.
S for Stabilizing.
C for Cautious.
It shows my Natural Style.
That is me when I am free.
No stress.
And Adaptive Style.
That is me when watched or trying hard.
My Natural scores: D 35, I 39, S 77, C 99.
Adaptive: D 25, I 10, S 70, C 60
High S and very high C.
That means I am steady and careful.
Low D and low I.
I think slow before I act.
I like calm talks.
Let me break each one down.
I will add comments from the test.
Decisive (D): My Score is 35 Natural, 25 Adaptive
D means how I solve problems.
High D people act fast.
They take risks.
Low D like me think first.
I weigh pros and cons.
The test says: “You may be prone to avoiding difficult decisions, and this can create delays. You like to carefully weigh the pros and cons on important issues before forming an opinion.”
Yes, true.
As engineer, I check data first.
No rush.
In copywriting, this helps. Clients want funnels that work.
I don’t guess.
I research customer pain.
What words sell?
I test ideas slow.
Strength here: I make strong decisions after facts. No weak spots.
How I excel in my role: For funnels, I map steps careful.
Step 1: Research client niche.
Step 2: Find buyer fears.
Example: For a Christian coach client, I study Bible verses on struggle.
Then build email 1 as hook. Email 2 as proof.
No fast jumps.
Example: Last project, client sells courses.
I spent whole day and a half on data.
Found top pains: “Fear of failure.”
My copy hit that. Sales up 20%. If I rushed, it fails.
Comment: Test says I lead by doing, not bossing. Perfect for solo strategist.
Interactive (I): My Score is 39 Natural, 10 Adaptive
I means how I talk to people.
High I are chatty.
Outgoing.
Low I like me are quiet.
Reflective.
Test says: “You are able to persuade others in a convincing manner when necessary. You tend to be a stabilizing force when emotional issues hit the team.”
Spot on. I am not party guy.
But in emails, I persuade quiet.
Words do the talk.
Strength: I balance alone work and team. No drama.
Excel in role: Email marketing needs calm voice. Not hype. I write like friend. Research shows what readers feel. I match tone.
Example: Funnel for ebook.
Headline: “Struggling Christian? Find Peace in 7 Days.”
From research: 80% readers want calm faith fix.
My low I keeps it real.
No loud sales.
Comment: Test notes I am hard to read but steady. Good for trust in copy.
Stabilizing (S): My Score is 77 Natural, 70 Adaptive
S means my pace.
High S like me love steady.
Patient.
Loyal to rules.
Test: “You bring a high sense of loyalty to the rules and regulations. You’re a very good team player. You can be an excellent calming influence.”
Yes! I stick to plans.
In engineering, we follow steps and procedures.
Same in funnels.
Strength: Reliable. Calm under stress.
Excel: Funnels need steady build. I test each email. Track opens. Adjust slow.
Example:
Funnel creation:
Day1&2 research data.
Day 3 write 5 emails.
Day 4 on wards test A/B.
Result: 15% open rate steady.
High S keeps me patient for wins.
Comment: Test says increase urgency sometimes. OK, I try timers now in funnels.
Cautious (C): My Score is 99 Natural, 60 Adaptive
C is my top.
Very high.
Means I love rules.
Quality.
Facts.
Test: “You prefer to have the complete picture before beginning. You are a bottom-line oriented person who dislikes fluff. You are known as an accurate fact-finder.”
Engineer heart!
Data first. No fluff copy.
Strength: Perfection in details. High quality.
Excel big time: Copywriting is my C dream.
Research deep.
Tools like surveys, competitor spy.
Then write.
Example: For Christian niche funnel.
Research: 50 buyer interviews. Bible stats on identity.
Copy: “God says you are enough. Proof: John 3:16.” Funnel converts 12%. Clients love data proof.
Comment: Test warns I may bog in details.
True, but wins pay off.
My Values: What Drives Me
Test has 7 values.
Mine:
Political 70 (lead strong),
Altruist 53 (help others),
Regulatory 56 (love systems).
Political high: I like control. Fits strategist role. I own the funnel.
Altruist: Help Christians grow. My niche!
Regulatory: Build systems. Funnels are systems.
Strengths list from test:
Analytic listener.
High quality control.
Tactful explainer.
Technical skill.
How I Use This in Funnel and Copy Work
Research Phase (My C and S shine): Gather data 1 week. Tools: Google, forums, client calls. Example: Client ebook on faith. Find top 10 pains via quizzes.
Funnel Structure (High S steady): Build simple. Lead magnet > Email 1 (story) > Email 2 (proof) > Email 3 (offer). Test slow.
Copywriting (Low D/I + Research): Write calm. Facts first. Example email:
Subject: “Why Your Prayers Feel Empty”
Body: “From 100 Christians surveyed, 70% feel this. Bible fix: Psalm 23. Try this step…”Email Strategy (Political drive): Lead team if needed. Control flow. Track metrics: Opens 25%, clicks 8%.
Excel areas:
Long-term clients. Steady wins.
Data-heavy niches like coaching.
Niches needing trust (faith).
Example full funnel:
Opt-in: Free PDF “5 Lies Holding You Back.”
Email 1: My story (low I real).
Email 2: Data proofs (C facts).
Email 3: Offer course. Result: 22 leads to 5 sales.
