"The better you are at handling objections, the more sales you'll make" - Gary Lineker. Fine. He didn't say that. Doesn't mean it's not true though. I've been thinking about objections recently and I've discovered a new - maybe even better - way of handling them. Use this and not only will your customers no longer care about the objection... they'll be even more eager to get their hands on your offer. Maybe. I don't know. Worth a shot though, right? Also in this episode, you'll discover: - The FOUR different colours of post it notes I possess and where I keep the on my desk for easy retrieval. (SPOILER: It's on the left-hand side, so I don't knock over my coffee onto them, but at least try and act surprised when I reveal it) - How I chose to use the word "slapdash" (was I referring to my approach to bullet points? No... because I use "lackadaisical" for that!) - The ONE thing (and there IS only one) that I ALWAYS do after AFTER launch, regardless of whether it's for me or a client. (If you think you're in for a big surprise... you're wrong. It's so bloody obvious I'm beginning to wonder why I'm even typing these words) - The moment when I manage to both NOT promote my course, but I  struggle to remember what it actually is (Can one man really be so incompetent? Watch this video and blast away those doubts!) - Possibly the weirdest hand gesture you've ever seen, as I say the words "mini-tada" (with no irony whatsoever) - The one simple question you can ask that will double, triple, quadruple, or even septanonatasticzooogle your sales... and how to do it the right - no sleazeball - way (like without making up words like "septanonatasticzooogle") - The one thing I'd change next time I launch... aside from my underwear - Y ewe don't kneed 2 B an grate writerer two bee a gud cop-ee-right-errrr. ... and VERY little else! - - - Oh, and while you're here...

There's only one way to find out!!!!!) - How much I sweat in a baking hot room when I forget to open the window before I hit record (SPOILER: My weight loss DVD, 'Toasty With Holty' will be out, via my OnlyFans site, in December) - The only metric that counts when it comes to marketing (if you think it's how Panini stickers you collected as a child... you're wrong!) ... and VERY little else! - - - Oh, and while you're here...

When it comes to writing the copy for your own page, it can be a struggle to choose 1st person or 3rd. 1st (me, my, I) is more personal and warm, but 3rd (he, she, they) sounds more professional and makes you feel like you have a team, rather than being the sad, pathetic loser you really are.

Headlines are tricky beasts to get right. Even the best copywriters on the planet can struggle for weeks and months before getting the perfect headline. And while I can't make coming up with a perfect headline any easier, I can do the next best thing and show you what NOT to use as a headline. Also in this video, you'll: - Be shaken to your core, as I (meekly) suggest that you're a selfish _______ (careful, the answer is NSFP - Not Safe For Pensioners) - Discover the most important realisation business owners need to make... but only if they want to sell more stuff and swim in money like Scrooge McDuck! - Learn the shocking truth about how your customers REALLY feel about your (yes, YOUR) widget (if you were hoping for "enamoured" and "slightly aroused", you're in for a shock!) - Marvel at how I subtly plug my coffee critiques in a manner that would make evil Hypnogod Derren Brown cry. - Hear about the biggest problem I saw with sales pages this week (I’ll give you a clue... look at the bloody title of this episode!) - Find out what you should NEVER put at the top of your sales page... unless your name is Kim Kardashian (it's not, is it? Good. Then don't do THIS!!!!) - Bear witness, as I create possibly the greatest movie title the SyFy channel has NEVER  produced! - Steal my “swipeable” free headlines I give (only bold lawn technicians need apply) - Learn how much the success of a sales page is  down to the headline (SPOILER Alert - it's 80%, but don't let that stop you from clicking ‘play’ and hearing me say it again!!!) - Discover the super-simple question you can ask to help you create a killer headline (wait... a serious bullet? WTF?!) - Observe and listen, as I unveil the REAL purpose of a headline (if you thought it was to remove stubborn stains from your undercrackers... you're WRONG!!!!) - Wonder if I’ve had a stroke as I pause a bit too long, pondering whether to use a risky adjective before the word "Goldfish", before finally deciding, "Best not!" - Be astonished at how, 37 episodes in, I STILL haven't come up with a half-decent ‘sign off’ yet (was this man REALLY a professional radio presenter???) ... and some other slightly less memorable bits.

Funnels work. They're a great way to solve valuable problems and build trust with your customers... WHILE GETTING PAID! Trouble is, it seems as though some businesses don't lend themselves well to the "funnel" model, but the truth is, you can create an ascending ladder full of offers for pretty much ANY business... ... as long as you take a different approach. Here's what I mean... Also in this episode I: - Mispronounce the word "Russell" - DELIBERATELY - a rather poor attempt at raising a smile. - Brilliantly agitate the "funnels don't work for my business" problem, so it feels more pressing and makes you feel WORSE about your life! - Tease you with a possible solution to this problem before I wildly veer off and talk about myself for a bit (you'll wonder how one man can be so damn selfish!) - Blatantly admit that I used to get paid by lying to people for a living (you might wanna call the cops after hearing this) - Answer the "how many birthdays does the average person have a year?" question once and for all (the answer may shock you... if you're an imbecile!!!!) - Say the words "THERE IS NO FREE OFFER!" - Egad! Did I really say this? Yes (let's hope the Sunday papers don't get hold of THAT quote!) - Finally admit the truth about my four-year struggle... (you'll need tissues for this... but only if you've spilled something) - Crowbar in a desperate plug for you to sign up to my "GOOGLE DRIVE OF AWESOMENESS!!!!" (think you know what "no lube" means? Think again...) - Reveal the price of how much a magician REALLY costs for two hours of magic (I'll give you a clue... it's one of these: £150, £400, or a Ginsters pasty and a foot massage) - Berate you (mildly) for being so selfish - Say the words "THERE IS NO FREE OFFER!" - again! (Am I mad?) - IMPLORE you to fantasise about brides... like you are doing right now! - Generously give wedding magicians a free idea for a killer lead magnet (did I say it was free? I did? Oh... shit, I wasted these brackets...) - Selflessly give magicians 5 (yes, facking FIVE) benefits they can use to get more bookings (I've charged over £1.25 for these in the past!!!!) - Show you the easiest way I know to GUARANTEE you're always offering value to the client - keep this handy trick in mind and you'll never go wrong. .... and some (I think) more.

Maybe you’ve experienced this... You create a killer piece of copy or content and right when you’re about to hit ‘post’... You spot ‘something’... one small thing that you know someone, somewhere on the internet won’t like... So you change it to something they will like (or delete it). Then you find something else... and change that too. Before long, you find yourself trying to create something that everyone on the planet will love, and, as we know... that's a recipe for disaster. "You can't please everyone", right? Maybe... Thing is, it IS possible to please everyone, but you need a different approach... --- Oh, and while you're here...

“Focus on the benefits – that’s the only thing that matters” You’ve probably heard that before. Heck, I think I’ve said it before. It’s true… kinda. If you want your customer to realise how your thing can make their life better, giving them a boatload of benefits is a great way to go. After all, why waste time getting bogged down in features? I mean… who cares what shade of black it is, whether it’s 78 inches or 87 inches tall, or whether it’s a DVD or instant download? Why bother with any of that “feature” nonsense when all the customer is REALLY thinking is: “What’s in it for me?” Because it’s not enough to show them what your widget can do for them… if you want to make a sale, you have to do something else too. And that’s where features come in… — Oh, and while you’re here… Don’t forget to visit https://insertgaghere.com/email​ to get access to the GOOGLE DRIVE OF AWESOMENESS!!!! so you can claim your FREE email prompts, writing tips, client-getting ideas, and MORE.

Actually, that's not true. I'm not fussed WHO punches you in the face... ... just as long as someone does. I know this sounds very clickbaity and overly aggressive (that's because it is!), but having a smack around the chops - metaphorically speaking of course - is one of the best things you can do as a business owner. You see, a slap in the face is the quickest and ONLY reliable way to test ANY kind of offer. And you need a reliable way to test your offers. So, now you know WHY you need a punch in the face, here's HOW to get one... --- Oh, and while you're here...

(And without having to pay a copywriter either!)   A short sequence of automated emails is a great way to build trust with people who’ve made the wise choice to download your freebie.   Trouble is... the idea of sitting down, facing the blank page, and writing 5-7 emails isn’t most people’s idea of fun.   If only you could write a welcome sequence...    ... without actually having to write a welcome sequence.   Good news...   ---- Oh, and while you're here...   Don't forget to visit https://insertgaghere.com/email to get access to the GOOGLE DRIVE OF AWESOMENESS!!!! so you can claim your FREE email prompts, writing tips, client-getting ideas, and MORE.

(I’m doing my best to avoid using the word “FUNNEL” – was it obvious?) After writing funnels nonstop for a year, I noticed a big problem… … a LOT of business owners had a “disconnect” that was costing them sales. You might have this problem too.

A few days ago I did something that I predict will probably increase my email open rates by about 20%. It’s not a weird persuasion technique, super-duper plugin, and I’ve not spent $27 on a “The Top Ten Secrets of Clickbaity Headlines (Number 7 Will SHOCK You!!!)” Udemy course. Instead, I did something simple - that anyone can do - that will not only improve my open rates but help me in other ways too.

I've used cold email pitching for a few years now, to land both magic and copywriting clients. My approach has changed recently, especially after I was lucky enough to get some feedback after an interview this month.
