Re: Squeeze Page with Very Few Optins

When a stranger comes up to you and talks about "home based opportunities"... Would you really give your personal phone number to that person? Hardly. Even if it's crucial - you need to give a valid,...

Re: Why Do You Need Money If Death Tears It Away From You In The End?

Ahaha.

You guys have to read between the lines here. I hardly think of it as rude - it's more of a metaphor really. This op is brilliant, really.

Well, money is a multiplier. It enhances my...

"The Case Against Copywriters..."

We're not copywriters, because that's a small part of what we do. We consult businesses. We conduct extra amounts of research into the market... consumer research... competitive intelligence... brand...

Re: Your Guarantee is *Not* a Selling Point

I beg to differ, and I'm not going to be a prat by saying "it depends". The type of guarantees that work in headlines or deck copy are usually creative and highly powerful - for example, a double...

Re: Will you help me with my slogan, please?

How about incorporating social proof into your slogan or a powerful guarantee? You could try to work out that angle. The guarantee worked out for Domino's Pizza... well, pretty notoriously.

Re: My first 15 headlines - help me choose the best

The pain doesn't really lie in taking the exam.

Re: Can you guys give me feedback on my copy?

Re: Are You Asking the Right Questions?

In my packages, I hardly use questions - only if it serves a powerful intent. Several criteria have to occur before I would consider even using a question.

Re: Emotional Headlines vs Big Benefit Headlines

I found that a little offensive, but maybe I got it wrong. Copywriting is mostly based on prior work and testing - that's where we get guidelines, dos and do-nots. It's mostly scientific...
