    Thanks,

    for...

    the exclamation point !

    on

    it's time for a Holiday from the Warrior Forum.

    It is rare to be present and in the moment when one tips the scales and the pendulum swings beyond the point of diminishing returns and continues to futility...

    Like a successful promotion, when it goes from profit to continuous loss. albeit a favorite creative baby...let it go and get on with it.

      First off hope your not leaving for good Gordon.

      To the Original Poster - start at square one, read all the stickeys and start here - http://www.warriorforum.com/copywrit...pywriters.html

      Study the Free/websites of some of the top copywriters in above. Then spend some time reading multiple threads down in this section of the forum. You will see a pattern who is good and knows what they are talking about.

      If you are serious read, write and learn before just posting a question. To many new people just throw out a question, when they can easily find the answer. If you have spent some time just looking at some of the posts or sticky's here. You would not had to waste time writing that post.

        Congratulations... you just demonstrated your ignorance about the subject.

        Each category has a different group of top copywriters worth studying.

        If I were a betting person, I'd bet it came off effortlessly.

        And, he's got a great point: the question was very general.

        I bet you don't object to someone posting similarly if the question were: Name your top 3 literary-pieces providers.

        You, yourself, would probably say:
        My 3 top poets are...
        My 3 top fiction writers are...
        My 3 top playwrights are...

        Back to copywriters... I've read a lot of Dan Kennedy... Great for sales letters... Haven't seen one ad for Adwords he's written or talked about how to write.

    I have spent much time retracing the thoughts of Gary Halbert as he put his pen to paper.

    Clayton Makepeace is also high on my list of people to follow. And who could forget Dan Kennedy, who bills himself not as a copywriter but a marketing strategist for the value-added positioning. His copy is no slouch either.

    Personally,

    I have done the whole personally hired copywriters to do all of the work for me, and I have also done the content creation service route, through many different companies. What I have found is this, by using a content creation service, I am able to get writers who actually have knowledge & experience within my industry, and therefor, I get better quality work.

    In addition, these people are writing at a very competitive level, with many rules, requirements, standards, & upper management people to worry about, making them even better than a personal copywriter.

    Go check out Need An Article, I have been with them for over 6 years & referred a TON of people to them, you should like their work: http://www.needanarticle.com/

    Xerox has been making copies so long, their name has become a verb for making great copies. I bet you'd find some names in there.

    Name 3 people who create good sales copies.
    Name 3 reasons you want people to hand you info when you could look it up easily for yourself.

    Not sure which is worse here lately - the people that ask simplistic, overly broad questions....or those who argue it was a logical question.

    It is rare to be present and in the moment when one tips the scales and the pendulum swings beyond the point of diminishing returns and continues to futility...

    Like a successful promotion, when it goes from profit to continuous loss. albeit a favorite creative baby...let it go and get on with it.
    Yup.

    It's difficult to pull the plug when it's been part of your "schedule" for so long....but I think we've passed the tipping point....habits can be broken.
