Well, it's been one helluva learning experience on this forum, like Rezbi, I'm also taking an extended break.

It's been fun, certainly interesting at times and I'd be lying if I didn't say I haven't learned a great deal from you all this past 5 years or so but truth be told, I feel like my time here has exhausted it's useful purpose.

My life also is going off in a new direction, copywriting still but the Internet marketing arena by choice just isn't my niche anymore.

Before I go, I'd like to extend my truly heartfelt appreciation to many of the copywriters here, too many names to mention individually - you all know who you are.

Keep your chins up. Keep smiling. Stay focused and behave yourselves and don't do anything I wouldn't do.

If you want to email me anytime or check in to see how I'm doing, you're more than welcome to do so. My email address is right below my username in the top left hand corner.

Smoking hot,


Mark Andrews

      Like you, I've given it a rest here. I just drop by occasionally when I'm procrastinating (like now).

      Enjoy life in the real world. There's a lot more money out there than on the internet and I hope you cash in on it mate.

    Not that Mark and Rezbi are leaving...

    But they and Hugh have discovered there is more to life than the inter web.

    Providing you leave the Postcard Marketing to me - all will be well (lol).

    I'm joking - give them a shot and when done well, you and your clients will be stunned at the results and the huge boost in income.

    You'll all be saying "Why didn't we do this before"

    Never.

    P.S. I so much hope the 2 brilliant clients who I'm writing web copy for aren't reading this.

    They are both the most fabulous people and I'm forever grateful that they are doing all the tech stuff.

  • Yup, I think Joe and Angie have nailed it - as always.

    Your good bye is like a stunning slap!

    We have been a family on this forum. Like in a happy home, saying bye can trigger secretion of tears. I, personally, followed your threads with keen interest --- they were among the most educative, informative and entertaining ones.

    Mark, surely you know that is not the right way to say "bye"

    How about starting one of those inspiring threads/posts before leaving, Mark?

    I'll surely miss you!

    I will get in touch with you soon.

    I wish you the very best in your new work!

      P.S. Where to find high paying copywriting clients?

      Simple.

      Go to Google and type in the search box:

      (Your niche) courses for sale.

      In my case for the personal development niche which is my speciality, my area of expertise...

      Personal development courses for sale.

      Look at the results.

      For example, the search query above brought up this website...

      Courses > UK's largest courses database, all levels | Hotcourses

      I then followed a link to this page...

      Online Personal Development courses UK & Personal Development classes UK | Hotcourses

      Now all I have to do is to scroll down the list of 23 courses and click on the link to the website for the course I may be interested in providing copy for.

      Voila! Very hot leads by the dozen.

      Think you can beat a current control?

      Contact the website / course owner and have a chat with them to see how by putting your heads together, you both might be able to help one another.

      It doesn't get any easier for lead generation.

      Of course, you can type into Google whatever you choose to, to find these hot leads. Whatever is applicable to the niche you specialize in.

      And on that note...

      Smoking hot,


      Mark Andrews

        See ya "geezer" Mark.

        Can't say all your posts turned me on like a she goat on heat. But then again does anyone's?

        Overall, your participation in the forum has been a positive one - stirring the pot that sometimes needs a stir. So thanks ol' boy.

        All the best to your future endeavors where ever they may lie.

        PS. be sure to post back when you update that ol' van of yours.

        Peace.

    You seemed to be one of the Copywriting Forum residents and have made some good contributions here.

    I think you'll find it hard to stay away.
