Has anyone heard of awaionline?

American Writers and Artists, Inc., online sent me some information (they want me to promote their site on one of my sites).

Wanting to know if anyone has any experience with them?

Hi,

in my opinion the AWAI is one of the best copywriting schools
available online. Their teacher roster includes such greats as
Michael Masterson, John Forde and Paul Hollingwood. To name
but three.

awaionline is just their online component - they were mainly
correspondence courses but seem to be moving more into
online interaction.

They are a professional set up, and have been around for quite
some time - I don't expect you'd have any problems in relation
to promoting them or entering into a business arrangement
with them.

I certainly wouldn't think twice about promoting them - as
I have just done.

Phil

I'm in the midst of taking their copywriting course right now. Nothing but top notch talent, content, etc. These guys are a real class act and I'm learning a LOT from their course.

Just putting together what I learned so far, I helped some friends launch a site that pulled in over $24K in 3 days.

Thanks for your information! They're actually sending me their 500-page course for free, so that I can evaluate it before I promote it. I'm now looking forward to receiving it.

Cool, lucky you! I'm green with envy.

Yes, I've been subscribed to AWAI's Gold Thread newsletter for the longest time. I think their founder is Michael Masterson.

I'm studying the "Accelerated Program for Six-Figure Copywriting" and so far I am finding the course to be very well done. I'm only into the second month now. Bob Bly is another person involved with AWAI among many other the notable, long time copywriters already mentioned.

I think, like the others have said so far in this thread that it is an honest to goodness resource for learning.

I laugh each time I check this thread. The AWAI 6 figure course is among the top ten best $29 copywriting courses on the market.

The only problem is it's not $29... it's over $500!

It's a basic course... teaches SOME of what you need to get your appetite whet. It is far from being great.

As the illustrious Dr. Kilstein has mentioned in the past how can you have a copywriting course that doesn't even bother to MENTION bullets?

(think about that)

Bly and the others have little if anything to do with the awai course.

(Come on... if anyone should understand what AWAI is all about, it should be warriors! Hint: It's marketing, people!)

That said...

If you want to learn copy from AWAI just study the sales letter that convinced you to buy it in the first place. It's some persuasive copy.

And... the golden thread is also a very valuable learning tool.

But the course is just fair. Overpriced and just... eh.
