COPY WRITING

Hey all, I run a successful weight loss site that sells a fat loss system/ebook but am looking to get a new salesletter/rewrite from one of the top weight loss copywriters around...

Trying to get those conversions on cold traffic up...I don't mind paying for it...but I'm not into giving away a percentage of profits, just a flat rate...anyone know/heard of who is the best in this market?

I am anxious to begin,

Thanks

In the fitness niche you can't do much better than Vin Montello. "Anxious to begin" could be an issue, though. He stays booked.

  Vin is top-notch. Another name in the weight loss niche is Harlan Kilstein.
  
  Anyone who is real good won't have immediate openings in their schedule.
  
  I've written copy for a weight loss product but I signed a non-disclosure so I can't tell you much more than that.
  
  Hope that helps,
  
  Mike

  I'm a weight loss copywriter...
  
  I won't say I'm the absolute best because I'm fairly new and wouldn't try to lie to you - but I can tell you that I think I'm very good.
  
  I take my time to do the research and won't finish the job until you're 100% happy if you want to try me out.
  
  If you want to chat a little more, my skype is "reeveso" or you can email me at Jeremy@controlbeatingcopy.com
  
  Thanks

I don't think anyone has done more work in the weight loss niche than me.

Heck, that's how I got my start.

I wrote full page weight loss ads every week for newspapers.

My own money on the line.

I still do a few weight loss products every year.

The market has changed substantially.

And I don't think the old ways work very well.

Contact me via my site if you are interested.

I've got a bunch of jobs in the chute already.

Peace.

Thanks

If you want something ORIGINAL, for an online product, you will not get better results or higher quality than Vin Montello. He will sweat and bleed to come up with the exact hook and story to sell your product to your exact market. And sell it will.

If you want to pay 3X more for a swipe written in an hour, that guy has been recommended too.

PS: Have you ever noticed the inconsistency in a copywriter posting in a thread looking for a copywriter, that he's very busy? I mean, if he's so busy, why is he posting about it?

First, I'm more than 5X.

Second, someone alerted me there was a threat where someone was talking about hiring me. So I responded.

Sorry you have a problem with that.

There are always a few bugs attracted to a bright light.

The bank doesn't, but the oversatured weight loss market does. If there was one market that needs a hook even more than the internet marketing niche, the weight loss market is it. Now, that's not to say a swipe won't work... but it takes a good piece of copy with an original angle and hook to really blow that marketplace wide open.

Last time I checked, the guy I recommended sent his weight loss clients to the bank with duffle bags of cash, just like Scarface.

  I've seen his work and wouldn't doubt it...
  
  Jason,
  
  Who said anything about swiping from the weight loss niche?
  
  Thanks

If anyone has any new recommendations please share.

Thanks in advance.

I've been waiting for you two guys to mix it up here on the Warrior Forum.

And finally you did.

Reminds me of the good old Fortin discussion board days.

Thanks for the (albeit short) show!
