    Why copywriting is a bunch of Bull$h^t and you shouldn't learn it...

    MARKETING RANT 
    Great copywriting techniques are simply tools for getting your message across. It doesn't need to be done in a douchey way. Most people do it in a used car salesmen way but they miss the point. It's an art form and a study of the human psyche on the highest level. If copywriting doesn't work...

    Progress Thread: My Journey with Facebook and Google Ads

    REAL ESTATE 
    1st guy has clearly studied marketing but he doesn't seem trustworthy. He's doing a lot of things with his body language and style of presentation that lowers trust. I'm sure some of the NLP experts in this crowd could chime in on this. 2nd guy...seems much more trustworthy but less focused on...

    Review My Business For Sale on Flippa

    EXECUTION 
    Here are some questions I would ask. Why did your revenue drop by 80% in January as compared to December? It appears that 20% of your page views are from India. Does that traffic purchase anything? My guess is not. $2k is extremely high for a site that has only generated revenue for 3...

    Best Books on Improving Profitability?

    BOOKS 
    Hey Cparsons, Asking how to become more profitable is very open ended. There isn't 1 single answer. So, every book is going to tell you something different. There's so many different ways to approach this. Why don't you tell us a little more about your business or your specific situation and...

    Book recommendation to improve copywriting skills?

    MARKETING 
    I used to have this attitude as well but it was an incorrect one and it cost me a lot of money. The human brain hasn't changed biologically in the last 100 years. We still respond to the same concepts. So, you're leaving a lot of learning 'on the table' if you choose to not study the classic...

    Your Headline Sucks And Your Thread Should be #Landfill

    When people constantly ask "Fastlane"? it makes me think they didn't read MJ's book at all. He gave very specific descriptions in there of what constitutes as Fastlane. But I flunked out of preschool so who am I to point fingers? :)

    Yeah true it's definitely social proof but from everything I've read... # of reviews is one of the ranking factors in the A9 algorithm. What % is it in the algorithm's ranking factor?...that's what I'm not 100% certain on. Does anybody have clearer data on the % breakdowns?

    It mentions Amazon 5x in the article Look specifically under the subhead How customer reviews impact conversions Edit....By the way, if you know specific information that I don't I'm always up for learning. That's what I'm hear for. :)

    Good question...you may want to read the article. :) Are you saying that the algorithm Amazon uses doesn't take into effect reviews anymore in rankings? That would be entirely new to me if so. More importantly, lets talk consumer psychology and how buyers make decisions. Because this is...

    How to make it more profitable

    Give them lots of reasons to do further business with you. It's not about the 1st sale as much as it is about the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc. etc. If you do this strategically, this could turn your $600 a month business into $600 per day.

    Very well written. Fortunately, I'm the only shareholder in my S corp but I still feel like there are lots of 'secret doors' (as you called it) that I'm just missing. Now on to another question. How do I know a CPA is good and knows all these strategies? I don't even know what questions to...
