Dear Marketer:
With CAN SPAM laws and spam filters blocking so many e-mails, e-mail response rates are plummeting.
Similarly, “do not call” lists are making it increasingly difficult to reach your potential customers by phone.
Now, some states are considering “do not mail” legislation to block direct mail.
Laws on the books now prohibit fax broadcasting to strangers – so you can’t promote your product to prospects by fax, either.
And half of your online ads never reach your audience because of pop-up blockers installed on their PCs.
In such an environment, print advertising – once thought to be on the verge of extinction – is making a powerful comeback …
As marketers discover the uncanny ability of magazine and newspaper advertising to break through the clutter — and get skeptical consumers to respond.
In many ways, making money with print advertising is a lot easier – and less complicated – than direct mail or online marketing.
The fact is, you don’t have to be a genius – or a great copywriter – to create print advertising campaigns that breaks sales records.
You just have to know the basics and a few of the tricks of the trade.
For instance:
- A company offering IT training made one simple change to the space ad for their seminars … and the number of leads generated by the ad doubled.
- A software publisher modified the wording of the offer in one of their promotions – and watched as their gross sales increased tenfold.
- Fortune 500 computer company offered, in addition to a brochure on their global consulting services, a free CD of a recent tele-seminar … and response increased sixfold.
All of the above are promotions I wrote for clients … using the techniques and methods outlined in my e-book, Ads That Sell: Proven Strategies for Doubling Your Advertising Results.

One other thing: I’ve been writing ad copy for more than 25 years … working 60 hours a week, 50 weeks a year … and teaching others to write ad copy for nearly that long.
There are very few copywriting teachers with as much experience as I have.
And none I know of who have written ads for a wider variety of products and services … everything from software and computer systems, to chemicals and industrial equipment, to publishing and financial services, to logistics and security.
The techniques I reveal in Ads That Sell cost my clients millions of dollars to develop and test … and now they are yours for a tiny fraction of that investment.
And now you can take review my program, in the comfort and privacy of your home or office, risk-free for a full 3 months before deciding whether you want to own it.

How can you get great copy written for your next ad or learn to write it yourself?
Copywriting Boot Camps, as you probably know, are expensive. Two famous copywriters recently charged $5,000 for their Boot Camps.
Hiring a top copywriter to write your space ads is also expensive – $3,000 or more for a single full-page direct-response ad … plus a fat bonus or royalty.
Ad agencies cost even more. Most won’t help you with your ads unless you’re going to spend at least $100,000 a year with them – or much more than that. And before you hire an ad agency, talk to their clients … and ask whether their ads actually made money. The answer may shock you.
In any case, Ads That Sell won’t cost you $100,000 … or $5,000 … or $3,000 … or even $100.
Instead, the price is just $39 – less than I charge for just 5 minutes of my time!
And if Ads That Sell doesn’t help you create ads that get your phones ringing off the hook with new business, you don’t pay even that much. Here’s why …
