Book on Writing Bullets

TheMagicShow · 04-22-2009, 04:25 PM

Hi Copywriting Warriors,

As copywriters, we know that well written bullets -- are important for a good copy. Are there any good books out there, that go over the techniques of writing good bullets?

Thanks

I've read an entire book dedicated to headlines but one for bullet
points is a little stretch in my opinion. I checked the one mentioned
on amazon and one the the reviewers claimed that it contained a lot
of filler. I'm not surprised.

Here's a freebie offered by Clayton Makepeace about a year ago.

It's the PDF version of the first ever issue of EasyWriters Club which covered 20 different ways to write bullets.

Enjoy,

Gary Bencivenga is the resident master of bullets. His site is Marketing Bulletsand his free stuff is pure gold and much better than most paid copywriting courses

Hey Mel,

Looks like the Clayton M resource
may be the way to go on this...

Personally I got a lot from Brian
Keith Voiles Ad Magic course
in regards to writing bullets.

I'd recommend the course for
general copy anyway, but the
bullets section was very useful
when I was starting out.

Hope that helps

Mike,

That's the resource I was thinking of, but I couldn't find the link. That single PDF is worth a fortune. Makepeace knows copy.

I don't know of any books, but Gary Halbert's newsletter, Let's Do The Twist, is useful.
