I’m from 6 generations of Southern Rebels and I created a web page for Southerners to show their pride in their heritage and to preserve it’s history for future generations.And who also understand that standing up for the Confederate flag is only about honoring the valor and bravery of…Read more

Hi everyone,
I joined today and I’m happy to be here.
I’m building an email list to practice what I’m learning through various copywriters.
I joined the club because I want to learn from the greats and John Carlton is at the top of what I’ve researched and read.
My current issue would be about article structure.
Should I use the AIDA…Read more-
If the blog posts are review-type posts then they shouldn’t be written like sales letters. There are a lot of examples of them online. Just google “best (product)” (where ‘product’ is the name of the product being reviewed) and you will see a lot of review sites. They are positioned as unbiased reviews of competing products, but obviously most…Read more

Hi Virginia thanks a lot for your comments about the Camtasia. I’ve had compassion for pretty a long time yet you told me a few things that I didn’t know and I appreciate that. -

Hi everyone, new here.
Question, can someone tell me the difference between the simple writing system and the express?
Thanks

Express is basically a free express version and it’s definitely worth going through a couple of times. I haven’t done SWS yet but there were many things I took away and implemented just from express.

I just went through it.

The Express Course is basically the first couple of steps of the Simple Writing System.

Hi all,
I am a freelance content writer.
I bought John’s course and was delivered an e-book. Is there a way I can download it to my kindle? Reading the book on the phone/laptop screen is slightly inconvenient.-
Hi Prachi: The manual is in PDF format, which can be read by most Kindles. There is a download button on the upper right of the PDF player. Just download it and then upload it to your Kindle. There is an article that explains how to do it here: https://www.groovypost.com/howto/read-pdf-microsoft-word-documents-kindle-device/

John Carlton’s Best Ads: Short, Old-As-Dirt “Nice Guy” Finishes First
Let's count the ''tricks" I pulled out of my bag for this ad: A take-away superscript. (Gone in 11 days.) Instant urgency. Long headline. A compelling "not what you expected" type of headline. This is self-defense ...and yet we're talking about old short guys in the...
John Carlton’s Best Ads: We Screwed Up Big Time
Here is a good example of a "lipstick" letter. The reference is to the old comedy routine of coming home with lipstick on your collar -- and obviously dire situation that would crush a normal man. But a top – notch salesmen should be able to talk his way out of...

There are many other ways to get the word out. One thing you could look into is using native advertising networks (ie Taboola) which aren’t as particular about the content of the ad or the theme of the landing page.
Your niche is very passionate, so use that to your advantage. You should be able to get a lot of traffic using free methods.
