Million Dollar Copywritress Carline Anglade-Cole NAKED!

Filed Under CopyWriting 

Do I have your attention?

Good. (No, this isn’t just a sneaky trick, I’m actually gonna make a point).

You should read "How to be a Confident Copywriter".

Again – this was something I wasn’t particularly interested in (I figure I don’t have to worry that much about confidence at this point but more about competence).

But then look how she started out:

"Right now, I’m about to get naked."

Well, if Gary Halbert would write that I guess it wouldn’t be that much of an enticing read… but Carline is a beautiful woman… (Am I sexist?)

What struck me the most was how much pictures popped up in my mind when I read the post.

(Maybe that opening line put the visual part of my brain on overdrive?)

Look at what else she wrote:

I’ve made more money from words than doctors with scalpels!

Pretty vivid, no?

a copywriting boot camp on steroids because it’s going to pump up your copywriting muscles and blow your socks off

I just love the imagery in good copywriting. It gives me joy, really. I hate TV, but I guess that’s because I got my own 3d-dolby surround cinema stuck between my ears.

This is your opportunity to meet face-to-face with me for 2 ½ days for an intensive copywriting workout.

Copywriting workout… again, I picture myself in a gym, working out with Carline Anglade-Cole…

(Yesterday I read Victor Schwab’s "How To Write A Great Advertisement", and he mentions a split-test where they boosted response for a product by 200something percent by linking it to better appeal to the opposite sex. And since then, I’m thinking of ways to connect products with sex appeal, and think of famous advertisements that already use that – you know, like the AXE advertisement? – so maybe that’s why my mind is on that naughty track right now… or maybe it’s just because I’m a young fellow and it’s hard to NOT think about sex).

But anyway, do you want to see what Carline is like naked? Then check out her post…

      Dear Web Business-Builder, I did something I rarely do this week. I went to the mall and bought myself some new shirts. Mostly my wife buys my clothes. If it were up to me I doubt I would even shave, let alone get dressed.  Anyhow, when it was time to wear one of my new shirts, […]
    • How to Tell if You’re a "Natural Born" Copywriter
      Dear Business-Builder, A personal confession: I don’t just like being a copywriter. I also happen to like copywriters in general. As people, I mean. Why? Before you accuse me of being too kind to my own, consider. How many copywriters do you know that seem extra welcoming and easy-going, as well as willing to answer questions and offer […]

      Fellow Business-Builder, One of the lessons I truly want to leave with my nine-year-old twin daughters, Katrina and Hailey, is in the power of an active imagination.

      Dear Web Business-Builder, When I was a youngster I had a reputation for arguing with people. I seemed to take great pleasure in trying to convince everybody that I was right. And as a result I was an obnoxious little bugger. Plus I couldn’t understand for the life of me why my […]

    • Five Ways to Turn No into Yes
      No is a very powerful word. It’s one too easily spoken, as any parent of a small four-year-old will tell you. It’s also detrimental to effective copywriting and sales, because it’s an absolute brick wall of resistance. The minute a potential customer says no, you’ve either lost the sale, or you have to pull out […]

      After 30 years, yesterday, which was Independence Day, I declared my own independence… from cigarette smoke. If you’re a non-smoker, this may not be a big issue. But for me, it’s huge. And it’s all because of one ingenious little tool I would have never thought I’d like. Until now. You see, during those 30 […]

      Have you ever wondered why people buy dozens of info-products… and yet never seem to get around to consuming them, much less using them? I have. And for a long time I just blamed it on people being lazy. In my own case, I blamed it on being too busy with client work to get […]

      Recently, Terry Dean wrote an awesome article, entitled “Copy is King and Other Common Lies.” The article boils down to the fact that the market and the offer come first.
