Default Best Dan Kennedy Copywriting Product?

I've always been curious about this and have always been super confused since he has so many products out there.

There's so many to choose from and I wanted some opinions on this so I can make a better informed decision.

So what do you feel is his BEST copywriting product/package?

Justin -

His book on copywriting is a great book and well worth the money. I have his copywriting seminar in a box and even though it is tough to hear it is great and well worth the money.

Justin,

It depends on your goals.

If you have to have a heavy dose of direct mail advise with some copywriting tossed in, then check out his copywriting in a box series. I will tell you that this one is my least favorite Kennedy product that I own and I own most of Dan's stuff (even his non-marketing stuff).

If you want a 'how to write a sales letter from scratch' advise, then grab "The Ultimate Sales Letter". It's the book I recommend most often when someone says they want to learn basic copywriting.

If you want a bunch of copywriting tips and advise, you'll enjoy his Copywriting Clinic, which is frequently sold dirt-cheap on Ebay for some insane reason (it's pure gold).

If you're looking for online style copywriting, Dan would be the first to admit that is not his forte.

I'd suggest studying guys like Caples, Makepeace, Fortin, and Carlton to learn copywriting instead.

But in terms of offline, direct mail/direct response marketing, Dan Kennedy is one of the best there is to study.

Good luck,

Mike

I put DK's "Ultimate Marketing Plan" up there with any marketing book, but I would argue whether he's the guy to learn copywriting from. At least not until you've digested every morsel of Bencivenga, Carlton, Collier, Hopkins, Schwab... and by then you should have it figured out.

Devour JC's Kick Ass Copywriting Secrets Of A Marketing Rebel and the Robert Collier Letter Book then get busy.

Best,

Kevin

If you're looking for some books, check out this thread from another forum where they post their suggested reading materials:

Must Read Copywriting Books

I believe most of people are also Warriors.

I think you'd be best served buying his books...especially the Ultimate Sales Letter...and treating them like courses...actually doing everything in the book and reading each chapter 5 or 6 times.

Kindest regards,

Hey mate,

I have tons of Dan Kennedy stuff, mostly bought on Ebay for dimes on the dollar.

I would say just notice what you are attracted to and dive in.

Several packages I have have multiple audio disks, and transcripts.

I find those really are nice to have, just my learning and integration style.

Enjoy and let us know what you get!

The Ultimate Sales Letter is a goldmine and a great place to start as well as continue learning copy - mine is tattered and beaten from all the use.
