Mr. Lewis,

My name is Jeffery Bradley. I’m in the process of creating an offline postcard campaign to sell an online product call the “Inspire Excellence Parenting Series”. The site is personalize to the visitor via a personalized postcard. You can view the test site at. When you exit the site my moving the cursor to the left, a popover window will appear inviting user’s to download a free ebook. When they enter the name and email, they are added to my autoresponder system.

I’m very interested in your “Secret of Writing Winning Autoresponder Series” and software. My question is does this product work for “non” internet marketing products. Most, if not all, software that create Autoresponders seem to approach it from the idea of selling internet marketing products. As you can see, my product is not in that category.

Also, can I use the software to improve my online sales letter. Thank you Mr. Lewis in advance for reading this email and for your quick response.

I know it’s maddening to see, but on the bright side, your article is legendary. And if you look up copyright laws, you are entitled to compensation from every one of those sites. I think smashingmagazine website has a ton of web copyright info.

You are pretty amazing though, and it’s a damn good article!

Some great food for thought. I’m personally enamored by unpredictability, but occasionally see that “surprise” copy backfiring in the wrong hands.

Great list.

No doubt- this is my #1 pet peeve when reading sales copy. The price is exact and everything else is vague. No sale.

Simple stuff but you make the point very well. It’s always good to hear a real pro’s take on these things.

Thanks for a good post.

I’ve thought about this issue. You illustrate it well here and give some good ideas of ways to fix ineffective sentences.

I think maybe we get taught to “be polite” by not coming out and saying “what it is” straight away - as if being blunt is somehow coarse.

Sometimes, as you’ve shown here, the sentence or thought can be boiled-down to a few short words - and other times the idea begs for specifics like the trucker’s cash windfall.

Love your stuff Ray.
