Copywriting--Cracked up as it's made out to be?

"Six figure Copywriting Without a Client"

More comments on "Harlan & Tina"'s "January Seminar"


Yes, as Harlan said, after a few sentences of kind words when beginning the seminar...

(not to mention the dollars he handed out--one per person. I guess this means that, if the distance between nothing and $1 is the hardest, we've gotten thru the hardest part; the next 999,999$ are supposed to be easy by comparison Smile

...that those were the nicest words he would say to us all weekend.

After lunch he announced that people had been coming up to him and thanking him for what a good seminar it was.

Harlan wasn't phased a bit.

He said..."I don't want to hear that it's a good seminar!"

What!?!?!?!

(You might think he was holding out for "the most stupendous seminar
I've ever been to" or something like that!)

Wrong!!!

He said the seminar would not be a success unless we all went out and used what we learned and made money!!!

Every once in a while I stop and wonder: is this guy is for real??

And then he pulls out all stops, over-delivers and leaves me panting to keep up with the challenges he places in front of me...not just about making money, or writing copy...but about living a meaningful life.

F-R-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-D-O-M !!!!!

And it was, was just mind-boggling to go into the "executive suite" after hours that Harlan and Tina had arranged--and have to pick your way thru the people with their laptops...on top of tables, on the floor, on their laps, on just about every flat surface you could find. (Thank God for wireless!!! Then it really would have been a mess!!!)

Yeah, the guy charges a lot. Yeah, the seminar was not as cheap as many (but cheaper than many others)...but if you are measuring in price, you are barking up the wrong tree. The tree to bark up is "value", only Harlan doesn't just provide a "tree" of value...but a whole danged forest!!!

Thanks Harlan, Tina...the entire faculty (it was great to see you again, Zac!)...and all the participants (not just the seminar leaders!)--I can't remember when I've been around such a bright, motivated and cheerful group. I didn't hear one word of griping or disgruntlement.

I don't know how Harlan & Tina will top this, breath-taking as it was. However, I know they won't be satisfied--success is the never-ending story that is produced from the continual dissatisfaction (or, re-framed, thru the "continuous improvement") of what exists. I just think I may need to get a cardiac workup before the next one...not sure whether my heart can take more!!! I may show up at their next seminar with a tank of oxygen!!!

Live JoyFully!

I am now under the direct coaching of Harlan Kilstein and Tina Lorenz. Add that to the influence of being in both John Carlton's and Michel Fortin's how can I lose? Let me tell you something. If you've never been to an internet marketing seminar--hold onto your wallet. I am definitely not feeling as flush as I used to! But hopefully all that investment will pay off. At least I get to spend a few days up in San Francisco at the end of August...
