Today, an observation on human nature… Actually, I’ve spent the last three days buried in research. Specifically, this is for a new financial/investment promotion I’m working on. Trying to really get my finger on the pulse of investors right now. To understand how...
“Money earned ethically is a byproduct of value creation.” I credit that quote to Joe Polish, although I don’t know if he’s the first who said it. It is, however, generally true in my experience. You can make money unethically through exploitation and coercion. But...
Yet again, I’ve been asked the eternal question… How to get (your first, or more) clients for your copywriting business… And since I’ve been buried deep in research all day long into the minds of investors, right now, in today’s market (including some field trips), I...
Most people don’t have a clue what it takes to create a highly-successful, highly-profitable marketing campaign… In fact, most of us suffer from a “if you build it, they will come” mentality. That is, you have an idea for a product or service, or a campaign to sell an...

I don’t consider myself to be a Buddhist, but I’ve read quite a bit of Buddhist teachings… (And, in fact, there are very many top copywriters who can say the same. In a speech at Phillips Publishing, the legendary Eugene Schwartz called himself “partially Zen.”) In...
If you want to create HUGE marketing and business wins, you have to get good at PROCESS… Earlier today, I recorded my Masters of Response Summit interview with Abbey Woodcock. For those of you who don’t know Abbey (yet!), she’s turning into an absolute rock star of...
Sometimes, we can behave like little children — and it holds us back… A quick “slice of life” story, from this past weekend. My parents hosted us at the Rose Children’s Theater in Omaha, for a showing of the musical, Madagascar (yes, based on the movie with the...
Do you have the guts and gumption to succeed? Today, another question from the ol’ mailbox — that’s right, it’s Mailbox Monday! Before we dive in though, a quick note… I’ve just added the David Garfinkel Masters of Response Summit interview to the BTMSinsiders members...
I love my life! I just got off a video call with Joanna Wiebe from CopyHackers, for her Masters of Response Summit interview. And I’m on such a high from it. She delivered a TON of value, specifically about what a student of direct response needs to do in industries...
Today I want to announce something I’ve been working on, behind the scenes, for a few weeks now… … And then, I’ll reveal the critically-important strategy I used to make this happen, that YOU can use to create new businesses or breakthrough marketing campaigns out of...
When it comes to generating profits, your offer — and how you present it — matters more than your headline… Let that sink in. As someone who has made a pretty penny in these last few years by putting words on paper, you might think this scares me. But in reality, it’s...
The following facts, pulled from a recent Copy Hackers salary survey, may make you uncomfortable… — Only about 1 in 10 freelance copywriters makes six-figures per year. And most of them make between $100,000 and $125,000. — Only 1 out of every 71 freelancers make...
