Ask any copywriter how many headlines they write for a single sales letter or ad, and they’ll come up with a fanciful number.

Or worse, 200 headlines.

May 12th, 2007 · 3 Comments
Do you actually sell on blogs? It depends. Are you in the mood for asking stupid questions?
If you, for one second believe, that you’re going to get action from your customers by simply ‘expecting them to work out’ what you sell–well, you are indeed in the mood for stupidity. Because let’s look at a blog [...]
