This is part of why I started requesting 50% of my fee BEFORE starting work… I remember reading about this from both Gary Halbert and Dan Kennedy, very early in my copywriting career. Both had worked with very entrepreneurial clients. And the more entrepreneurial a...
It hit me out of left field — I went from hyper-productive to PROCRASTINATION… And at first, I didn’t realize what was going on. Then, I remembered a lesson from Steven Pressfield’s The War of Art. And I realized that in the One Big Idea from that book, I had my...
He was willing to spend $250 to make a $69 sale… That means that for every $1 he’d bring in, he was willing to spend almost $4 on marketing. And that didn’t even count his cost of fulfillment! This was a client of mine. Not an investment newsletter publisher, but...

This works ESPECIALLY well in the most competitive markets. I continue to process the lesson I learned earlier this week, from the $500 million copywriter that you may have never heard of. I think it’s the biggest sales, marketing, and copywriting breakthrough I’ve...
Sometimes, really tactical stuff just works… Earlier this year, I worked on a project with another copywriter, Vitaly Grinblat. It was a promotion for a stock picking service. The market focus and promo topic is irrelevant to this article. We wrote a solid promo....
I’ve been stalking him for a while now… Stefan Georgi is probably one of the best copywriters you may never have heard of. He quietly rose to the top of the online copywriting world by… Crazy idea… Writing copy. A TON of it. In fact, at one point he was cranking...
