How you lose readers… and sales crater Very few people talk about this, and when people do, they tend to give it the short shrift. But not us. We’re going to give it the long shrift in today’s episode. Why everyone struggles so much with this problem The best “greased chute” copy is not only seamless; it’s virtually invisible to the untrained eye. Most people not only don’t know what the words are, but the strategy/psychology behind them. If that’s you, relax and rejoice! All is revealed ahead.

Solution #2 - Comparison This is like using a metaphor, but a lot simpler and, frankly, easier to do. It’s a powerful technique. Solution #3 - Random Phrases that work Sometimes it’s simpler than you think. But you gotta use the Best Words. You’ll get some of them in this part. Download.
