Anywhere To Get Copy Critique Without Publically Posting?

8 replies
Fellow Warriors

As the title suggests I'm looking for somewhere I can get my copy reviewed/criticized/destroyed constructively but without having to post it on a public forum.

As its for my business I'd rather keep it under wraps. I'm a Glazer Kennedy Insiders Circle Member but can't find anywhere on Planet Dan that allows me to get critique as a member.

Is there anywhere I should know about and failing that, would any experienced copy pros be willing to take a look at my copy if I PM it?

Thank you

Skye

    Most, if not all, the copywriters here offer critiquing.

    I'd point you in the direction of Ray Edwards simply because I've first-hand experience of his critiques. Plus, there's a fifty minute sample on his site so you can check him out, and you can't go wrong with his guarantee:

        Dude, you're gonna have to pay for a critique if you want a quality private one.

        But you can probably find some folks on the Warrior for Hire forum who'll do it for cheap. Just check out their credentials first.

          Typically you'll be looking at a minimum of $250 if you want a private copywriting critique.

          The purpose of public critiques, never mind the fact there are in my opinion far too many requests for them, is for everyone to benefit from the help rendered free of charge.

          No such thing as a free private copywriting critique - this is something you'll have to pay for.

    More often than not, you'll be paying for that privilege. There are definitely several pros here that can give you pointed advice, but one on one time costs money.

    Thanks Andrew, I'm familiar with Ray, however, this is an actual direct mail piece and its a 6 page document currently in word so not sure it fits the product being offered.

    Also, for the time being (as this is test mailing) I want to try to keep costs low until I test the concept and figure out how profitable the model is.

    OK Guys, I hear you loud and clear.

    I'll be digging out my cheque book then - Any other suggestions for paid critiques welcome if you have recommendations.
