If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

One of the best ways to learn anything is to learn by observing others who have done it successfully.

You can study Michael Fortin, Jay Abraham, Mike Dillard, Dan Kennedy, Cialdini, and Joe Schroeder, whose material I just adore.

 In fact the following letter written in Joe Schroeder prose. Why do you think it’s successfully in pulling people in? Look at the sentences. Study the length of the paragraphs. Edited.

Subject: Fr’ee Please. I want my audio
CD and eBook. Fr’ee Please.

~~NAME~~,

I have something for you. Not so much
a GIFT as it is a way for you to actually
use my marketing system.

Alright, I suppose that is a gift.

If you witnessed HOW I sell what I sell
I honestly believe you would say, that could
probably help me double my own sales.

I earn upwards of $500 DAILY selling
via classified ads and through little e-mail
letters.

YOU CAN TOO.

First, you need to collect my TRAINING kit. (Free)

GIFT #1: My famous Ebook.

I have made over 55,000 sales and I know by
Page 12 of my book you will have a Eureka after
Eureka.

Not.
Not.
Not.

You WILL NOT be able to make it to page
22 and remain as you are. The Ebook will
show you twists and psychological triggers
that if ADDED to how and what you already sell

KA-CHING!

My training KIT is FREE.

Gift #2 : My Free audio MP-3 CD. No charge.

You can use that CD in your iPod.

My wife calls that CD, How we earn $500+ per
day with simple e-mail letters and one dumb
little POST-CARD.

That wife of mine! UGH! (wink)

Why in blazes didn’t she call that free CD
that you are about to RECEIVE

My Husbands a Genius and I love the new
Hummer H2 he just bought for me Cash!

That name would have made me happier.

SWEET!

(My banker thinks we sell drugs!)

Anyway, enough about little ole me.

YOU / YOU / YOU

To RECEIVE the system.

To RECEIVE the FREE CD

To RECEIVE the goodies

All I ask is that you e-mail me back the
FIRST (3) words of this 1-800 message

 1-800-772-9781 Ext: 14
( 24 Hr. Recorded message and 3-4 minutes long )

That will prove your sincerity to me.

I REFUSE to just hand over the keys to the vault.

In RETURN, I will e-mail you my GIFTS.

In return, you can learn how to make $1,000
CASH in the next 3-6 days.

In RETURN you will prove to me you’re DEADLY serious.

My mini-cash flow web-site is a doozy as well.

IF YOU are NICE to me (yeah!) I will also give
you a web-site that can make you some sales as
well.

NO, my name is NOT Santa Claus.

I hope you are a legitimate person.

People who have regular jobs (unlike yours truly)
tend to make even more. With my ad and post-card
system.

More later.

I will (why that is) Xplain later.

——————

I just added this email to my series. You can probably see why. Here’s the response Tim Berger, a Joe Schroeder mentoree, had received when he mailed out the letter:

Yesterday, Joe Schroeder sent out a letter that he was
using as a follow up to his classified and postcard campaigns.

I decided to “test it” to a small batch of folks who
requested information recently about Magnetic Sponsoring.

I sent it out about 11:30 Sunday night.

Woke up this morning…

Rode my bike for a couple of miles…

Went to the grocery store…

Went online about 10 AM…

Found 39 requests for the List Dragon PDF and Ebook.

Had 4 voicemails requesting the List Dragon PDF and Ebook.

43 new leads generated automatically in less than 12 hours.

2 List Dragon referrals so far from those 43.

Using technology and the written word.
Study great writers and practice and your writing will get better.

The only way you’re going to attract people to your material (your website) is to learn how to write in such a way that elicits a response from people.

I save my emails from Joe Schroeder, and other great copywriters. I study headlines and keep a swipe file. Once you do this for awhile, you’ll be amazed at much better your writing will be.
