Copywriting - it's nonsense
Copyrighting is a bit like SEO - it's become so embroiled in it's own importance that the core of what your doing has been forgotten and it's all become about the "formula" or the "rank".
Here's my radical solution: Write about what your product does for the person who is thinking of buying it, what problem it will solve for them, and how it will make their life better.
Think of nothing else.
Then list the features, or talk about them in words in paragraphs.
Forget "Killer headlines" "killer copy" "the right formula for your copy" "Halberts letters" "Schlitz beer" and all the rest.
Just focus on what your product is, what it does, and how it will help people, and your copy will naturally be less contrived, less blatant a sales pitch, will actually talk to a person like a person, and will answer their questions.
And will sell more.
Less like a 9 mile long clickbank sales pitch and more like a human trying to help another human with a simple conversation.
Clickbank and the ilk of long internet sales letters may have worked in the past, and you may argue that long copy always sells more, but people are more switched on and can spot a BS sales letter selling a BS product from a mile away.
Get bogged down in the "formula" of what makes a good sales letter and you lose what actually sells - being a human helping another human.
That's my opinion.
If anyone wants to test this out, then pick some product and I'll write a normal human oriented piece, you write your 9 mile long waffle, and lets compare results.
As long as the product isn't a pile of crap that is. No scams allowed.
