Enthusiasm is the yeast that makes your hopes
rise to the stars. Enthusiasm is the spark in your
eye, the swing in your gait, the grip of your hand,
the irresistible surge of your will and your energy
to execute your ideas.
Enthusiasts are fighters, they have fortitude,
they have staying qualities.
Enthusiasm is at the bottom of all progress!
With it, there is accomplishment. Without it,
there are only alibis.”

S atisfaction – How?

Under Promise & Over Deliver

Important personal endeavours, including


choosing a marriage partner, maintaining a
friendship, and getting a job require selling.
Selling requires a buyer, reaching the buyer
requires marketing in some form, and when the
sales are made the customers must be cared
for to ensure they will buy from the business
again and also tell others to do the same.
Wes Zimmerman

Magnetic Copywriting - The Ultimate Copywriting Training

Under Promise & Over Deliver

Remember to SMILE

For you, this is the moment of truth

For your customer, this is his golden moment


Look at the delivery as the beginning of the
long term relationship AND of YOUR next sale

Make a FUSS

Make the invisible visible AGAIN

Refresh your customers memory on all the


benefits associated with your product/service

Make sure they have your contact details handy

If you have not already done so, now is the time


to ASK for referrals

Remind your customer that your very existence


relies on the next sale they will introduce you to

Why Bullets?

KISS

Bullets are Most Important on line, because:

Most people don’t read everything,

They scroll, skim & scan

Bullets are vital, because they act as:

Stop Signs

So what are Bullets used for:

Headlines

Sub-headings

The Sales Letter

The Order Form

The Call to Action

Magnetic Copywriting - The Ultimate Copywriting Training

What do Great Bullets do?

They Wound

They Arrest

They Penetrate

They Emphasise

They bring a point to life

They make pledges & promises

They get the Reader’s Attention

They create Drama and Curiosity

They list Benefits by converting Features

They get the Reader to say “This is for me”

The great Sales people are great story tellers
Great sales letters incorporate great stories
Remember Metaphors from your NLP Training

Metaphors bypass the conscious mind


allowing the unconscious to accept the story

Stories can be found in and around your product

• The origins of the Product


• How was it developed
• Who by
• What about the ingredients
• Where did they come from
• Do they imply a ‘Secret’
• How have others benefited so far
• Case Studies

Remember: Amazing Discovery … implies a story

Become a Great Story Teller


A metaphor (STORY) reframes LIFE into a
more powerful EXPERIENCE.

Everyone needs to come up with a story for:

• You Personally
• Your Product
• Your Business

All the World’s a Stage,


and all the men and women merely players
William Shakespeare

In i–NLP we teach given a choice we prefer


a trivial story well told rather than a brilliant
story badly told.

How Do You Launch yourself


into Copywriting?
Ironically a ‘Copywriter’ should start by being …

1) A Great Listener: You have two ears, one


mouth – you don’t need the ‘gift of the gab’
you need to be an attentive, curious and
interested listener
2) Get to know your ‘Product’ and your
‘Target Audience’
3) Do a SWOT analysis
4) Refine your Offer and Risk Reversal
5) Remember “Salesmanship in Print” which
really means “YOU” on “Paper”
6) Remember: A) A.I.D.A.S.
B) S.M.A.R.T.S.
C) W.I.I.F.M.
7) Start with: Bullets, Headings & Headlines
8) Write the ‘copy’ Remember the BONUS
9) Make sure you anticipate and answer, in fact
brag about Your objections
10) Summarise
11) Have a strong “Call to Action”
12) Remember Colombo: Always have a P.S.

How Long the Copy?


• WIT
• 10/20 words ... to
• 6,540 words New York Times

Always write for two types of prospects


1) The word by word reader (the minority) &
2) The skimmer & scanner (the majority)

Always make available both paths, using:


• Headlines & sub headlines
• Bullets
• Visual Aids
• Underlining
• Highlighting – yellow words stand out great
• Diagrams or Pictures – always with a caption

There is just one reason why your prospects


will keep reading – They expect a reward –
That’s the key to holding their interest

P.S. Jim Rohn ½ dozen things


that make a difference:
Check your sales letter, website, speech or
presentation:
Review – structure, content & delivery
Get rid of the I, I , I or the WE, WE, WE
and add lots of YOU

If in Person:
More eye contact, less I, more you & stories
– will help you connect emotionally

Remember a Yes Set will get you more –


INVOLVEMENT and COMPLIANCE

Always use a P.S. (The Colombo approach)

Reinforce by summarising the offer at the end

Read your writing aloud to make sure it flows

P.S. Always strive to improve one step at a time
