First time here? Subscribe to my Blog by Email or RSS feed and get a copy of my valuable report "The Ultimate Copywriting & Marketing Secret" valued at $99. Thanks for visiting!

The headline above is what’s called a “fascination” and they are mainly used in bullets. They arouse curiosity; they tease and titillate. That’s why they are so powerful. Lead sentences can do this too as you’ll soon see.

FIRST UP A LESSON: I’m aware for some of my blog visitors they have no desire to write their own copy. This is understandable. Writing good copy takes time, diligence and a keen eye for detail.

Many of my members are busy and their hearts aren’t in the copywriting side of things. That’s okay; I understand. Copywriting isn’t for everyone. However, this doesn’t mean you should not study copywriting. It’s a BIG mistake not to fully understand all the intricacies, a huge loss to your profits if you do not understand, at a deep emotional level, what copywriting is all about.

Temptation Getting Me Down

by Pete Godfrey on August 14, 2010 · 4 comments

When you begin to taste the sweetness of success, there are many pitfalls to watch out for. You really can be your own worst enemy. There are many temptations that can lead you away from your goals.

They come in many forms.

Advisors telling you only what you wanna hear, the lure of easy money from dubious characters, excess consumption of alcohol or the allure of drugs, folks of the opposite sex with questioning motives, and on it goes. It can be a minefield and it’s easy to get caught up in the rush of success.

That’s why it’s important you have your own set of rules you live by. A strict set of guidelines to keep you on the straight and narrow. Because I’ve seen too many talented folks come unstuck. They did everything they could to sabotage their success.

Fool’s Gold

by Pete Godfrey

I want to share with you two facts of life that many folks, especially online, just don’t get.
FACT OF LIFE #1: Just because you’ve put a website up based on an idea you think is brilliant, doesn’t entitle you to any monetary success. This is a biggie. This insidious thing called entitlement. Many folks feel [...]

Finding your sweet spot

by Pete Godfrey

In cricket, we call it “the sweet spot.”
That’s when you hit the ball right off the centre of your bat.
For those who have played the game, you know what I’m talking about. The feeling you get when your bat connects with the ball; the connection felt through your hands, your wrists, your forearms. You know [...]

What’s Sitting Around Gathering Dust That Could Be Making You a Whole Lotta Money?

Anyway, I asked many questions that when answered [...]
