Most of the copy I see is boring…

Snooze-worthy boring.

And there’s no faster way to kill a sale than copy that puts the reader to sleep.

Gary Halbert had a saying that went something like this: ‘you can have crap copy and a great offer and still make sales’.

The ‘Prince of Print’ has a point. A killer offer despite boring copy can still make you a ton of sales.

But there’s another copy element that when understood and implemented in the right way, can turn reader, into buyer even if your copy is a little on the nose.

I’m talking about BULLETS. 

Spread a handful of tantalizing, intriguing bullets throughout your copy (even if it’s not that great) that target your readers wants and desires and sales will follow.

You want proof?

OK, how about this: I can recall at least a dozen times I’ve brought an info product…not because of the main body copy…and NOT because of the offer…but because of one, solitary bullet that was intriguing and compelling…I simply HAD to buy.

THAT’s the magic power of money-making bullets right there.

Many business owners make excuses about their lack of success.

You might have heard some of these before…

‘The economy is really bad…’

‘We don’t get enough foot traffic…’

‘Our customers just don’t know what they want…’

‘Email marketing wouldn’t work for our business…’

And these excuses lead to the early death of many a business.

But it doesn’t have to be this way…and that’s what today’s podcast is about.

But first I want you to answer a question

That question is…

What business are you really in?

Take your time to think about this one.

It’s crucial that you both know and understand the answer to this question.

Why?

Because quite frankly:

Your success in business depends on it.

Most business owners get the answer wrong.

You see, you’re not in the landscaping business, you’re not in the printing business, you’re not in the hairdressing business…

If you own a dog grooming business and you think your business is simply grooming dogs, well, then you my friend have a big problem.

That’s because no matter what business you are in…you are ALWAYS (yes, ALWAYS) in the business of SALES.

And it’s the subject of sales…and selling that is the hot topic for this week’s show…

In this episode of ‘The Pete Godfrey Persuasion Show’ me and my producer Blake Sterling rap about selling your way out of any trouble.

Many business owners fail because they make excuses on the events unfolding around them in daily life.

They’re reacting…

Instead of being proactive…

As you’ll hear today, there is literally no supposedly ‘dire’ business situation that you can not sell your way out of.
