DISQUS

Andrew Cavanagh · 3 years ago

The next step AFTER writing copy like you were writing an email to a personal friend is get some people who ain't too bright to read it.

See if they get your over-complex babblings.

This is pretty easy to do.

Just make up an email list of people you know who voted for George Bush the second time.

Kindest regards,

Ben - Great tip. I remember when I was starting out, it was very difficult for me to write in a conversational tone like I was writing to a friend.

My big breakthrough was when the owner of the company I was working for at the time let me send an email to nearly 20,000 people. The response was amazing. All of sudden, I realized that there are REAL people out there! And they respond! :-)

Andrew - I laughed out loud when I read your little political joke. By the way, I voted for Michael Badnarik. He had NO hope of winning simply because of his last name...

What the hell do you know about American politics Andrew? Who would you have voted for if you were actually an American and anybody actually gave a rat's a$$ what you think? That dumbass John "I voted for the war before I voted against it" Kerry? I think an even dumber list of people would be Australian copywriters who think they understand American poltiics hahahahahhahaa

"kindest regards"
