I would like to share with you a copywriting technique…
“The art of copywriting lies in understanding the emotional hot buttons of your prospects and finding, through the applied knowledge of persuasion and influence, the way to gain attention and get them to take specific action.

John Reese has tipped his hand as to some recent (and startling) test results regarding webcopy…
I’ve been testing some new stuff that’s very exciting. I’m not ready to let the cat out of the bag yet, but if my findings are consistent, the sales letter site as we currently know it will become extinct.

I just got some hate mail from Michel Fortin. He pointed out that I was screwing you over– and you know what?
He is damn well right!
I don’t know what I was thinking, but I failed to tell everyone about his recent interviews of Gary Halbert and John Carlton.
Count them…

John Reese brought up a good point in his blog the other day in regards to writing benefit-laden copy.
One of the greatest copywriters on the planet, John Carlton, teaches a very powerful concept… he calls it the “benefit within the benefit”.
