I recently bought a scale, for the first time in my adult life… Although many members of my family have carried a few extra pounds, I was a relatively skinny kid. It might of been that I played hockey, starting in 5th grade, through high school. Or other ways I...
“TAKE MY MONEY!” … If you want prospects to shout that at you as they throw money your way, today’s issue is going to be especially interesting to you! I’m sitting here on the couch with my daughter, who is feeling a bit under the weather. So today’s issue is...
In a moment, I’m going to admit what’s been consistently behind my biggest failures — and hopefully help you recognize it if it’s holding you back, and either eliminate it or avoid it, by learning from my mistakes… I hope I don’t embarrass myself too bad by the time...
This could upset the apple cart… Since 2010, I’ve made most of my living as a “gun for hire” copywriter, working for some of the biggest, best direct response marketers on the planet. Since 2014, I’ve written the daily Breakthrough Marketing Secrets essays with a...

Heya! I owe you an apology. Usually I’m pretty good about letting you know when I’m not going to run a regular issue of Breakthrough Marketing Secrets, or at least sending a brief note when it won’t be a full essay. Yesterday, I didn’t do that. For those of you in...
I wrote this essay quite some time ago… I think I’ve republished it through Breakthrough Marketing Secrets at least twice. But it’s been a while. And I’ve been thinking about it a lot recently. I consistently get emails from new readers. After discovering my site,...
Sometimes you just need to crank out the work… Today’s one of those days for me. I’m working on a deadline for a big project, and I need to get it to the client before my work day is over. It’s a somewhat tricky, complicated project. And I’ve admittedly allowed a...
Let me let you inside my head a little bit — into a dark place… The last few months for me have been — admittedly — a little up and down. In hindsight, I think I might have some subconscious self-sabotage going on. I’ve been working with incredible clients, on...
