John Carlton's Simple Writing System

I purchased SWS the last time it was around and I should have gotten the homestudy version instead.

The coaching was FANTASTIC. But I had underestimated the time I would have to make use of it. Very bad idea.

I also had trouble because I was unexcited about the business idea I was writing about. I had to really push myself to complete the assignments because it was one I'd picked with a small and tenuous connection and wasn't really sure I wanted to build a business around it.

If you already have a business or a product that you are working on and will benefit from a long-form sales letter then go for it, even if it's a services business like copywriting. The feedback you're going to get will be phenomenal and step by step. Because the teachers are being paid for their time they are able to put more time and effort then you usually get from a free forum.

I wish I hadn't gotten the course because of my own personal circumstances, but that in no way reflects on the high quality of the material and the interaction that becomes available to you. I would have been better off if I'd bought it now, since I'm working on starting a business and actually know what it IS this time.

The entire purchase process went very smoothly, by the way. And I agree that they delivered exactly what they promised.
