Hey guys, does the material in ‘simple writing system’ and ‘kick-ass copy writing’ apply to writing for charities, non-profit and fundraisers?

hey john, another question 🙂
what the exactly steps do you make, before you start write your copy?

Greg

Hi everyone. Happy Holidays! I’ve just started the Simple Writing System, to help market my new group coaching program that will be launched during first quarter 2017.
I’d love some feedback on my USP:

Hi Bo: I have a few suggestions on how to simplify and target your USP more effectively:
First, I would remove the reference to self-help books. I don’t think it is necessary, and it shuts out all your prospects who have tried other coaching programs but haven’t tried reading books.
Also, I would take out the part about discovering and…Read more

From my understanding yes because you’d still need to push people’s emotional hot buttons in order to get them to part with their wallets, even when it’s for a good cause.
Ahhh okay, thanks!
It applies to anywhere you want to sell anything. Even if what you are selling is yourself…to a prospective employer, a prospective spouse…the principles are the same. They even could be used if you want to get your kids to do something they don’t want to do!
