The only book you'll ever need for copywriting!

Joseph Sugarman is the real deal. His teachings has stood the test of time. And I am a HUGE fan of Gary Halbert, but honestly Joe knocked this one out of the park.

Great advice

Even to this day these copywriting insights are really powerful, I think Sugarman should add his thoughts on more recent social media and advertising copy for FB and Google, I would really appreciate all he has to say

LOVED IT!

I learned a lot from this book and have already put some of it to practice. Some of it is outdated, but for the most part, it’s a masterclass on copywriting! Highly recommend!

This content is so good I bought the book

Rarely do I want to keep an item so much that I buy the written copy as well. but that's what happened when I listen to this the first time. The content is so valuable, I can imagine it could be sold at ten times the price and still be a terrific value.

it's good but probably overrated.

unfortunately like most advertising copy we have been desensitized to the fact that what is now legally defined as Puff free is let's be honest lying.

while there are many things to be learned from this book I did enjoy it and I will use many of its principles I think we need to move away from considering ridiculous lies as being acceptable simply because of a legal definition.

Outdated

Concepts and examples are dated and I found precious few of them to be useful.

Also, the author hasn’t embraced modern language usage. For example, using he/him as the default singular person pronoun. Also, author referenced “a man who is babysitting his three children.” Newsflash: dads don’t babysit—they parent.)
