In the beginning… there was light… (or at least, there should be)

If you like music, think about some of the most powerful music you’ve ever heard, and then ask yourself why it’s so powerful.

Chances are good it has to do with a certain level of energy or enthusiasm it infuses you with. Certain emotional hot-buttons it pushes, deep inside of you.

You need to keep in mind that enthusiasm is the lifeblood of all your communication, and it’s especially important in selling. And it’s actually critical when it comes to selling in print.

That’s why one of the hardest parts of your ad or sales letter, or even your brochure, is the beginning.

After all, it’s hard to open up with enthusiasm. It’s hard to be a big fireball without being “too much” for someone, isn’t it? Plus, it’s also hard to start at “10,” isn’t it?

After all, we’re not amplifiers, are we? We don’t have switches, right?

You don’t walk into the gym and do your heaviest set first, you typically warm up and work up to those heavy poundages.

True?

So here’s what I want you to do. I’m not going to go over actual openings because we’ve spent a lot of time on this in the last few weeks, but I want you to think about some of the difficulties you have with “getting started” when it comes to writing…

Post some of them on my blog at http://blog.kingofcopy.com

And then, tomorrow we’ll cover some strategies you can use to make “opening with enthusiasm,” much easier.

O.K.? (Also, pay close attention to today’s P.S.)

Now go sell something, Craig Garber

P.S. Only THREE Days left to take your free test-drive of this month’s issue of Seductive Selling! Listen to what Kendra Cecieta from Beverly, Massachusetts had this to say about it:

“As a constant addict of information that will help my businesses grow, I was referred by a friend to Craig Garber. I decided to take him up on his free trial offer and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. As a consistent student of some of the world top marketer’s, (and as a direct response marketer myself) I am always keeping my eyes open for the ones that say they deliver value versus the ones that actually do.

I have subscribed to numerous marketers monthly newsletters, and I am still blown way at how insignificant their newsletters are in terms of applicable information in comparison to Seductive Selling. So much so that I have cancelled many of the others. I am happy to say that Craig is one of the few that certainly OVER-delivers each and every month.

His newsletters are packed with practical “no hype” marketing strategies that make a difference when applied to any business, in any industry. He offers proven strategies, some that remind you to get back to the basics while some you may have never thought about before.

He does this with one outcome in mind: to help you become a better marketer and get you results, fast. Now I anxiously wait for Seductive Selling every month. I purposely block time to read it uninterrupted. Then I schedule time to implement many of the things I have learned each month because there is so many. Trust me once you start reading it, you will want to do the same thing too!”

Still not convinced? Listen to the live testimonial hotline where you can here loads of others comment on their own experience. Then test-drive it yourself and get 18 (yep, count ’em) REAL bonus gifts (not the usual useless garbage you get) worth $3,632… just for saying “Maybe!”

Don’t wait, because this month’s Audio Success CD of the month has a very compelling interview with a 19-year marketing veteran! He went to his first marketing seminar when he was only a teenager! Get the free trial and your basket of goodies here at http://www.kingofcopy.com/ssnl
