Question: Will you folks ever release the Jeff Paul Scuttlebutt Tape? He may have pushed things too far, but that was a strong interview.
I’ve been on here for a while and I haven’t seen it. Did I miss it?

MRIC,
I’m not having much success with conversion from my landing page.
Any feedback on the copy would be welcomed.
Regards,
Barry

Hi Barry: There is a lot more involved in conversion than just your copy, but just looking at the letter I have a few comments:
1. Take out all the links (including the opt in at the bottom) and just have “Contact”, “Privacy” and “Terms and Condidtions”. This includes all the links at the top, the links to social media at the side, and the…Read more

For the life of me, I can’t find the option to sign up for the coaching classroom. You’re site has a ton of stuff and I have a terrible sense of direction! i’d love to have an instructor give me feedback. Thanks.

Hi Woody: Frustrating, isn’t it! I don’t think there is an easy way to get directly to the SWS Coaching Sales letter. I will give you a link but have to get some info from Stan first. Just want to let you know I saw this and am working on it.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

When I click on the SWS classrooms link, I get sent to here:

Hi Woody: You should be sent to a page that says “oops, wrong membership level”. In any case, I will get back to you about how to sign up for coaching.
If you are not sent to the “wrong level” page and could create a screencast video (jing or the equivalent) it would be very helpful to me. Thanks
-
Yes, I am sent to that “oops…” page. However, there’s no link to join the coaching program.
-
I will get you the instructions as soon as Stan gets back to me. And I will update that page. Thanks

Hi Woody: Please open a support ticket at http://www.MarketingRebelSupport.com and Anne will help you.
Thanks.

Hi,
my name is Volker and I have joined because I am running an Indiegogo campaign that needs good writing. I have about 30 days left to make that thing work: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/tomatotent-mini-home-grow-box/x/7710566

Nice video, Volker. You have a lot of bullet points in there. I would put them as high in the copy as you can. Can you add lines beneath where you say: Discreetly grow plants for yourself and maybe a friend?
If so, I would list the bullet points there. Just go through your video and list all the features you mention, along with a benefit for…Read more

I see you joined the Simple Writing System. That will help you a lot, and if you really apply yourself you can get through it in less than a month. When I took it I did my first pass through in 3 weeks. Good luck to you. Colin is a great teacher.

Hi Virginia,
thank you for the tips!
“Can you add lines beneath where you say: Discreetly grow plants for yourself and maybe a friend?”
– No, so I added them into the body, high up.
I have removed the word ‘discreet’ anyways.
Thank you

Hi Volker,
I loved your video. I suspect the no matter how Tomato Tent goes, you’re going places as a marketer and business owner.
You’ve ventured into a small and competitive market here. As you point out, the cost of product development is high. Even a small vegetable growing system takes up space, produces odors, and is prone to things lik…Read more

Hi Stan,
thank you for saying this:
“…you’re going places as a marketer and business owner”.
It keeps popping back up in my head because nobody has ever said that to me. Thank you.

I accidentally deleted my whole thread. Oops
So another question, so the last place I worked at was in a residential area. Out in the middle of nowhere type of place. Rent was cheap and the landlord was a pretty decent guy.
The place I worked in was a Teriyaki/Mexican fusion type restaurant. The food was very high quality and we had many…Read more

As a side, please fix the Mitch Tarr (Zin Marketing) link. Those bullet points alone, I can extremely benefit from and get up to speed with. Thanks in advance!

I think that people will search out and travel a bit to go to a good restaurant, so it doesn’t really have to be in a specific neighborhood to be successful. There do seem to be some restaurant locations that aren’t successful no matter who is there, but I think that is the minority, and I am not really sure what would cause that.

The links on the post for Mitch’s call have been fixed.

John Carlton’s Best Ads: The Most Important Letter You’ll Ever Read
Finally, here is a great example of a completely "blind" letter. Nowhere in the entire four pages of copy is there a hint of what, exactly, you will find in the product. It's all tease. Like the little strumpet at the local watering hole giving you a big come-on......

Hi Raymond:
Sorry, no can do.
We pulled it years ago when Jeff ran into legal troubles for actions we could in no way begin to defend.
If the recording still exists, it’s on a backup drive somewhere in Stan or John’s storage cabinets.
