Dear IM copywriters..

COPY WRITING

I remember last year that I came here a lot to ask for advice on copywriting for my own product which I gave up on and just give away for free now. It always converts at over %50 of the targeted visitors too so happy with that.

But back then when I was writing the copy I used a snazzy arrow that jumps up and down. To my dismay (as i was going to use this arrow again) there are many of the big names now using my friggin arrow.

It's on 4 Day Formula and on some of George Sniper Browns stuff.

I'm guessing the copywriter is in here.

So I've come to pick a bone. Who stole my arrow?

This is pretty common practice and a simple arrow is the least
you have to worry about. I've seen a jumping arrow used for
many years now. Maybe not the same design and size as
yours but hardly an original idea if you asked me.

I have an arrow on my site. And I'd never heard of you until yesterday when I saw your posts on this forum.

Or, maybe I have seen them before but can't recall.

However, I've never seen your site before.

  Your blog appears broken.

  As for this thread. More humour than anything else.

Moving GIF arrows have been around for years. Here's two of "your" arrows:

1. This one is as wide as "yours" but taller:

2. This one is thinner than "yours" but taller:

Everyone here is FREE to borrow these arrows.

And here's one even taller than #2:

Here are the facts: the offer on your squeeze page is many times more important than the length of your arrow.

you're making a fuss about an arrow? What does Eben Pagan have to do?
His squeeze page has been swiped just about a million times..
