Do You Think It's Interesting?

11 replies
I was rereading a classic copywriting treasure lately and I saw a great quote that I thought could not only relate to writing and business, but also life and relationships with people, so what better place than here...

Gilbert Chesterton said..."There is no such thing on earth as an uninteresting subject, the only thing that can exist is an uninterested person."

      I recommend Gary Bencivenga stuff for copywriting, type him in Google. He's got many stuff related not only to copywriting, but also to relationships and real life stuff.

    I agree with the quote. Any subject can be interesting to someone, no matter how dull or boring that topic might be to the rest of us. It's all in the mind (eye) of the beholder.

    Thanks for sharing this quote - I hadn't heard of it.

    Oh i agree Kevin-Gary Halbert and Bencivenga are legends. I was talking about rereading victor schwab's classic and saw that quote mentioned and put it in here because was related to life and business.

    There's tons of lessons that can be found within one thing often as well.

    An old lady once told me that every person has a story, if only you would listen. Now I know better, and thanks for this because you can only listen if you are interested.

    To make it interesting for almost everybody, show its relevance in a person's life.

    Elevate relevance by catering to all 3 communication modes: visual, auditory and kinesthetic.
