I’ve watched this video probably a dozen times…

And it fires me up every time. Anytime I feel like I need to take another inch, anytime I feel like sleeping instead of doing what I need to be doing, I watch this video, and I’m right back on productivity mode…

Check it out, and let me know if it inspires you as much as it inspires me in the comments.

By the way, I’m not 100% sure but I think his name is Eric Thomas.

Peace,

Hey guys,

I let Issamar Ginzberg from Issamar.com grill me in an interview…

It talks about how I got started, my advice on traffic, social media, copywriting, testing, conversions, profitable markets and a whole lot more.

Izzy (Issamar) is a marketing genius, and both people who are new to IM and those who have some experience can take a lot away from this interview. Enjoy!

IMPORTANT: Listen to the biggest marketing mistakes people make. I can almost guarantee at least one of them is costing you thousands of dollars. Seriously.

Also, near the end of the interview, it sounds like it’s over… It’s not. I throw in some traffic strategies at the end that should definitely help some people out.

Reasons People Don’t Believe Your Copy (Or Buy) And How To Fix It.

December 10, 2009

I don’t believe you.
That’s your second biggest enemy beyond having your message heard… It’s convincing your customer to believe your what you’re saying is true.
People are skeptical. They need to be skeptical.
And that’s your next biggest obstacle, convincing them to believe a word you say. Because you’re just some random website on the internet, and [...]

I’ve Been Shot… How Much To Fix It?

November 11, 2009

I field quite a few inquiries every week.
This week I’ve had 5 people contact me saying “this is my website, it’s not converting well. How much would you charge to fix it?”
If that’s the first question you ask me or any copywriter, then we’re probably not meant to be.
It’s bad business for both parties involved, [...]

October 19, 2009

I’m the first to admit that this is my biggest problem…
A few months into my freelance copywriting career, I became jaded. I had clients falling into my lap with hardly any marketing on my part, and I was earning enough money to be “comfortable”…
Don’t get me wrong, ALL of my clients get 100% effort out [...]

Why The New FTC Ruling Will HELP Smart Marketers…

October 12, 2009

Everyone’s freaking out…
The alphabet agencies are coming down with new regulations, and people are scared.
On the one hand, I’m not a huge fan of government regulation and policing small businesses… On the other hand sometimes we need to be policed, and I think that these new guidelines are going to separate the boys from the [...]
