Listening to John and Kevin’s podcast episode ‘On Story‘ got me really curious about how ‘tales’ get told of real-life events.
I’ve never been a good story teller – and piecing together chains of events that retain the same anticipation, angst or excitement from the original never came easy to me.

While we are discussing GARY HALBERT he wrote a series of letters called THE BORON LETTERS to his youngest son Bond.
This book is available on Amazon under $25.00 and if you’re a fan of the late great Gary Halbert you should definitely read this book! -

For several years now, Facebook has been a great source of free traffic for websites. Of course, marketers have taken full...and in some cases, excessive...advantage of this. There has been more and more abuse in recent years, especially by websites that are in...
A wacky excuse to contact your prospects (or clients)

Good Story 🙂
One of the things I realized early on working with John Carlton is that good sales copy is structured story telling. It has a lot in common with technical writing.
Just like a story designed to make you laugh, or cry, or learn a step-by-step process, there are constructs and patterns that have proven to work in copy.

Oh nice.
I’d always assumed that good storytellers always learnt by intuition. (Unfortunately for me, my intuition told me to stop telling stories because I never hit the punch line).
It’s good to know I might be able to get some of the basics down at least, even if I don’t become a master storyteller.
That book looks super interesting – tha…Read more
