Hey it’s David checking in,
This is a message that I am using to collect structured feedback…
Two things that need improvement:
1) Having the client respond at all
2) Having the client answer the questionsIn the meantime all I got was “We love working with your dad!”
Do you see anything that could be improved so that it
compels the client…Read more -

hey, im looking for ads from the great copywriter… parris lampropoulos
if you have some, it will be great, thanks!-
Parris keeps his cards very close to his chest. He doesn’t have a course or do group coaching. He works with just a few copywriters at a time and he’s not easy to reach unless you know someone who knows him.
As for his swipes, I don’t know a source I’d trust for copy I’m highly confident was written by Parris. You can Google around. You’ll…Read more

Hey Virginia!
Thank you for you answer. Also, I’m trying to download the emails that John used on his email marketing course, here: https://1023.marketingrebelclub.com/lessons/email-read-and-acted-on/
But the link is not working at all. Could you solve it?
Thank you.

Sorry about that. We recently updated the theme and some links didn’t survive…

hey, what the best publishers for health/diet/weight loss (for example: Rodale).
thanks!-
My former boyfriend used to receive a lot of that stuff. I think most of it came from Rodale and Bottom Line (which I think are related), There is also Cleveland Clinic and Mayo Clinic.
He passed away in 2014 so my memory is a bit foggy. There were a couple of doctors and if I remember them I will let you know, but those are a start.
If you…Read more

i subscribed to rodale, but it looks a lot that the copy kind of… avrage.. and not so fantastic, why is that in your opinion ?
-
The only thing I can think of is that it may be being tested. If you see anything last for more than a couple of months you can be assured that it is effective, because they have the best writers and they test everything extensively.

There is also Prevention, which publishes books as well as the magazine and may have some type of newsletter, but I’m not sure about that.

Sad news today.
Scott Haines, a friend and frequent SWS Coach, passed away this afternoon.
Besides being an excellent copywriter and respected teacher, he really was a nice man. He rolled with life’s punches. I can only picture Scott with a smile on his face and him putting even bigger smiles on the face’s of those around him.
I’m going to…Read more

Very sorry to hear this news. I didn’t know him but the sales letter for his copywriting course was one of my favorites.
-
This post on John Carlton’s blog is the best place to leave a comment / note for Scott’s family to read.
-
This still sucks. I barely knew Scott. Spoke to him once on the phone and a few FB messages back and forth about his course, maybe it an email too.
He was a good dude, great writer –– I wish I knew him better.
I gave a bit to his first GoFundme and encourage anyone who can afford it (and EVERYONE here CAN afford at least a few bucks to do the…Read more

HI David: The questions sound good to me.
When you get someone saying “We love working with your dad” (if you aren’t doing so already) you may want to give them a call and discuss their experience. Then you could get some more specific answers.
You might also want to call the ones that weren’t satisfied or who gave him a hard time in some…Read more
You could also follow up on the phone with the non-responders, saying something to the effect of “we sent you this survey and wanted to make sure you received it”. Or send out the questionnaire 2 or 3 times and then follow up. Make them know that you really care about their experience.
Thank you Virginia 🙂
I’m glad that the tiny script I wrote for the email survey is pretty good.
Email + phone call for follow up feedback, emails alone tend not to get the job done it seems 🙂
You could also send some postcards. You might get a better response than email. Or some letters with SASE included.
I really like your mail idea.
I’ve read so much about mail order marketing…
Might as well start mailing postcards
Would it be worth testing postcards vs SASE response for a survey?
Leaning towards mailing SASE.
I would try both. The postcard is better in that it doesn’t have to be opened, but if you have a written survey and SASE it is easier for the customer to reply to a letter once they open it.
You might also offer some type of incentive for their honest opinion.
Both it is.
Thank you.
