This is absolutely crazy… And it’s something I’ve had to keep top-secret, until now. I landed a cameo in a just-released music video — about copywriting and marketing — alongside many of my greatest heroes. And so instead of a normal BTMS issue, or even one of my “new...
There’s a lot of talk about how understanding human psychology will make you a better marketer… And in fact, I got looped into a conversation today, in The Copywriter Club Facebook group, about this very topic. (I was interviewed on The Copywriter Club podcast a bit...
It’s really easy to over-complicate things… And, in fact, to make it all justifiably over-complicated. That is, all the little complications, conditions, and complexities you add in have a reason — and a good one, at that. But the more you pile complication on top of...
I just finished a book you’ll either love or hate… The book is Relentless: From Good to Great to Unstoppable. It was written by Michael Jordan’s personal trainer, Tim Grover. (Grover has also trained a slew of other NBA stars — but due in no small part to him being...
Today’s Mailbox Monday question has a ton of value to give on three levels… — First, for anyone starting any new business venture (no matter whether you sell products or services), there is one really big core lesson to be had, so I’ll start there… — Second, part of...

You won’t be remembered for doing things the same way as everybody else… If you want to be exceptional, your behavior, by definition, has to be the exception — not the norm. Sometimes, this is dangerous. Doing new things is fraught with risk. There’s an...
A few weeks back, I wrote a post on 3 Half-Truths About Copywriting… In it, I wrote this… “Have a successful sales letter? That’s your control. Your control is your enemy. You must beat it, as soon as it takes that throne. And once you have a new control,...
Amazon is at it again… In the last week, they’ve had not one, but two major announcements. The first — last Friday — was their announced agreement to buy grocer Whole Foods. That’s a total coup on the grocery business. And a sign that the one major consumer industry...
Monday means it’s time to open up the ol’ mailbox! Once a week I dig into my inbox for YOUR questions about marketing, selling, productivity, business, copywriting, and any other topic that I think will make for a great Breakthrough Marketing Secrets issue. To add...
The following video may completely change how you use stories in marketing and selling forever… I’ve written before about the PAISA formula I’ve come to love in terms of both its simplicity and power in marketing and selling. At the very core, most good products and...
Marketing creates transactions. Identity creates lifelong relationships. I have worked with the world’s best marketing minds. Folks who can create a sales pitch that can fulfill the proverbial promise of “selling ice to Eskimos.” This is a hugely-valuable skill. ...
I’ve thought more about questions throughout 2017 than I think in any year before… For quite a few reasons… One example: my friend and BTMS reader Jeff Moore. Jeff has drilled into me — directly, and indirectly through places where he teaches — the power of...
Many marketers have a love/hate relationship with offers… Especially copywriters. If you create a new marketing piece for a really great offer, you secretly love the offer. Because an offer that the market can’t get enough of can make you look like a hero. My best...
It’s Monday again, which means I have another goody from the mailbox for you! To have your question answered in an upcoming Mailbox Monday issue, simply email [email protected]. I’m happy to tackle the topics of business, marketing, selling, copywriting, life, whatever...
