Default I can believe this got you a 700% increase in readership!

Hi Glenn,

That's awesome... Thanks for sharing about "celebrity marketing!"

It makes sense... Celebrities pretty much spend every waking hour trying to get our attention... And they're the ones who have succeeded... People are interested and intrigued!

And it's ethical, as long as you stick to what's true, kind of like a reporter... Or even ask questions...

I definitely should be doing more of this... Like my good buddy Brad Pitt has suggested... (*)

Best wishes!

Dien

(*) This is a joke.

The Beauty of CELEBRITY COPYWRITING?

You can Go In Almost ANY Direction.

Suppose You Want to Talk About The Benefits of the Military?

Drew Quit being a Soldier.

Decided to READ books about Stand Up Comedy.

Wrote a bunch of Jokes using The "Formula."

Tested them on some Guys in a Bar.

Then Went to Comedy Clubs.

I first Spotted him on a TV Show. Doing Standup.

Nervous as hell.
With a Crew Cut.
But FUNNY.

(EDITORS NOTE - Books by Stand Up Comedians Are VALUABLE. The Topics They Choose to Get a LAUGH - Are Great Niches to Write about.)

============
============
Or You Could VEER In The Direction of Sex And Relationships.

I Read a Scientific Study
that said that Couples who go to a Sex Therapist Or Marriage Counselor
ALMOST ALWAYS Get a Divorce.

Versus Those who STAY away from The "Experts."

=============
=============
OR You Could Write About Drugs.

A Hypodermic needle full of Nicotine was found on The Floor
Where the Killer tossed her off the Balcony.

Sounds Pre-meditated to me.

Although His DEFENSE Attorney said the Needle could have been
there for other Reasons.

==============
==============
OR You Could Give an English Lesson.

Talk about The Word, "Defenestration"
Which is a Fancy Word for Getting Tossed off a Balcony.

==============
==============
PLUS...

Very Easy to DOUBLE The Celebrity Name Dropping.

Taylor Swift Has a Stalker who Smashed her Manhattan
Condo Door With a Shovel - Cops found him in Her Bed.

Such a Big Problem she uses Facial Recognition
at her concerts to Keep The Crazies away.

Thanks,
Glenn

Default Margot Robbie Door to Door Sales Woman CELEB

Thanks Dien/Gordon,

Margot Robbie says in an Interviews That AS a CHILD She Used KETCHUP to Scare off
Baby sitters She didn't like.

She would Cover herself in Fake Blood/KECHUP.

Sprawl on The Bloody Floor.

Holding a Bloody knife.

Holes and Slashes in her Clothes.

The Baby sitter would walk in the room. Then RUN SCREAMING.

This Takes GUMPTION.

Quentin Tarentino Tells a Different GUMPTION Story about her.

Quentin finds Margot at his DOOR.

Cold Calling.

To Ask,"I really Love Your Work. Are you working on anything Now I Might
be "Right" for?

And Quentin said, "Very Possibly."

READ her some of His New Script, "Once Upon a Time In Hollywood."

And asked, "Do You think You can Play "Sharon Tate.?

SALES CLOSED.

Thanks,
Glenn

P.S. - 426 Million Mentor, Walter Hailey Taught me his Multi-Billion Sales Script
which contains a similar Take Away.

I - You Figure out who is Your Best Prospect.

II - Then You Phone up a Supplier - You Pay Moolah to. (So You ALWAYS have an EZ appointment.)

III - You Say, "I've Thought of a Way to Pay You A LOT More Money. Do You Have Time To Talk?"

YES - YES YES

IV - "How Many Prospects Like THIS (Your Best Client) Can You Refer Me?

..."Keeping in Mind - YOU Make More Money with Each Referral
Cuz I have to Buy More ________ from You To do the Extra Work?

Walter Calls this COMBO a NEER Sales Referral System.

NEER - Naturally Existing Economic Relationship - selling.

P.P.S. - I Have a MP3 Audio Program full of 7 Figure NEER success Stories.

But want to Create Case Studies for 6 Figure NEER Stories.

Default A Quentin Tarentino -10 Page Script- Gets Him 200 Million Bucks

Thanks Dien/Gordon,

Just Suppose You are Writing a Movie Script but have No Money?

Just Suppose YOU KNOW that Top Movie Stars
Like Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt - Are ALL You Need to "ATTACH" to Your Script to Get BANKERS to Fork over 200 Million Bucks.

Just Suppose.

You Fed X Your Script to Leonardo and Brad.

But with a 10 Page SALES LETTER on Top.

With a Note.

-----------
-----------
Dear Leonardo,

The Top 10 Pages Below contain The HIDDEN BackGround
And Behind The Scenes LIFE of the Leading Character in
this Script.

I am Looking for an Actor who can ACT all of this
On The Screen without ADDING Extra Words to the Script.

Are You UP For IT?

Or Should I send This Script to my 2nd Choice for The Role Mr _______.

Thanks,
Quentin Tarentino.

Leonardo and Brad Pitt said "YES" to This CHALLENGE to their Acting CHOPS.

"Once Upon a Time In Hollywood"

THIS CHALLENGE PITCH
IS Very different from The Same Old
Same Old Scripts they get sent.

============
============
This Strategy
Is The SECRET
to The
REASON WHY
Tarantino gets so many of his Movies Made.

EVEN The (Less than good) ones.

Proving that COPYWRITING is Still King.

AND
NO
Robot or Ai is
Able to do this - YET.

NEW
Innovative
Customized Copy or NICHED Writing
Is
Important.

Thanks,
Glenn

Default Specific Writing

Glenn,

You are right as rain about this.

Many times when I was pitching a program for a company when I was performing, I had to make sure I was writing in their language... talking their talk... letting them know what they were looking for, they could find in me.

With marketing to certain businesses and folks you need to do that in spades.

But the easiest way I have looked at this is to determine what is in it for them.
How do they benefit? How do they benefit above and beyond what they can imagine?

Give them that above all and you can make the deal more often than not.

Default "$5000 Bespoke Suit" Niche Name Dropping - Millard

Thanks Millard,

I Got Referred to a Lady in The Bespoke Suit Sales Biz in Dallas, TX.

(Had to look it up. HandMade )

I Googled and Found THE TITAN of her Industry.

Called and we hit it off.

Then Did Some Research about the owner of her Company.

HE JUST GOT FIRED from the Major Company in That Niche.

Bottom Line.

His Source of Hand Made Suits was CUT OFF.

So I Politely Left her.

After Suggesting She Might wanna LOOK into Swithing to a Competing 5000.00
Suit company.

MY
NAME Dropping the Man She Admired
got her to Speak to me for an Hour.

Default Stephen King HATES James Patterson for Not Being a PANTSER

Thanks Dien,

Two of the Best Selling Authors in the World have a NOT SO POLITE.

And One SIDED WAR going on.

Stephen King - Who coined the Phrase
"Pantser" for those who "Write by the seat of Their Pants." And Do Not Plot each story in advance.

Constantly FLAMES James Patterson.

Loudly.

And with 4 Letter Words.

Patterson - Outlines Everything - in advance - before Writing each story.

Patterson Also Outlines Books for Co-Authors.

"SACRILEGE" says, King.

IN TURN - James Patterson Has GREAT FUN with King.

Effusive Praise.

Kind Words.

Compliments.

Saying with a GRIN. "Just Imagine How my Compliments must TORTURE Stephen King."

ME?

I Use My Own "Greased Pig SPEED WRITING SYSTEM." Which Enables me to Write At LEAST 3 Times Faster than I ever did in college. And Yet Better too.

AHA!

I Discovered I have a Foot in Both Camps.

I Do a Rough Outline.
But
Always Go Above and Outside of the Outline.

Often Ending up somewhere Totally New and Unexpected.

Thanks,
Glenn

PS. - So If You Come across Stephen King Hurling Epithets at James
Patterson from a podium.

NOW You Have The REST of THE STORY.

Glenn,

Are you saying you politely left her a message? Is this where you did the name dropping or did you just say that you know about Mr. X?

Just trying to understand your comment... "So I Politely Left her."

Thanks,

Millard

Default Napoleon Hill Method for Creating Empty Seats w/Out a Reservation

Thanks Dien/Gordon,

Years ago I Helped A Former Salesman At a Retirement Home.

I - We Sent him Vitamins

II - We Sent Him Proven Ways to Make Exra Cash in his Side Gig.

III - And - at His Request - We Sent Him Proven/Tested BRIBES (we use to Get Huge Plates of Veggies instead of those tiny side dishes At Restaurants)
Costing a buck each. Trinkets he could use to Get Favors from Nurses and Staff.

a - Wgt Loss SunGlasses. (The Japanese Co Says, "Blue is not in nature except for BlueBerries. So Blue Food looks UGLY. You Eat Less. Lose Wgt)

b - LED Keychain Lites (Brighter than a flashlite)

c - Diamond Tip Pens

d - Red Paper Roses - You Make While The Waitress Watches

DALE Thanked Me with a Surprise.

He Fed X'd His Napoleon Hill Seminar Course. "LAW OF SUCCESS" Records and The Course Manual.

Plus Shared This Napoleon Hill Story -

"Glenn, I Liked to Wait Outside the Hotel Banquet room. Because I Liked to Watch Dr Hill's MAGIC at Work.

We Knew When He Was Getting Close.

Just Before He Drove up in his car - Dozens of people would rush out of the Hotel. Get in their Cars and Trucks.

And
Drive
Away!

Only in the front Rank. Close to the building.

I asked Dr Hill, "How Do You DO that?"

Here is What He said. Exactly what I use to this day.

Dr Hill Said, "I have an Imaginary Helper. He goes out ahead of me. Moves cars out of the front Row So I can Park."

I Repeat to myself, "Lots of Empty Spaces. Lots of Empty Parking Spaces. Up front, Up Front.
"Lots of Empty Spaces. Up Front. Empty Spaces Up front."

Dale Told Me This had Worked for him Hundreds of times.

Empty parking spaces AND Empty Restaurant Seats too. (No Need for Reservations.)

So.

I Tried it myself.

A Couple of Common Sense MISTAKES I made.

POINT #1 - You Gotta Start Talking BEFORE you get to The Wal-Mart Parking Lot.

POINT #2 - You Don't Want to Mix The Empty Parking Spaces Mantra with The Empty Restaurant Seat Words.

POINT #3 - You Gotta Remember to Start saying, "Empty Spaces, Lots of Empty Spaces WHILE YOU are Driving To The Parking Lot. Too Late When you are In The Parking Lot. It takes TIME for People to Move their Cars.

POINT #4 - Dunno Why this is. But Like Water that won't Boil while You Watch. This Does Not work for me if I Sit There in my car and WATCH.

Common Sense Strategy & Words
to Get Restaurant Seats without a Reservation.

RIGHT AWAY when you pull into one of the Empty Parking Spaces.

You start Saying, "Lots of empty SEATS. Lots of Empty seats. Walk right in and sit down"
Over and over.

100% of the time.

By the Time You Walk in The Restaurant - The Concierge will say, "Great Timing. We Have an Empty table. Follow me. Come this way."

YOU CAN HAVE FUN WITH THIS!

Whenever I Am Driving to Dinner with Friends. Especially in Friday, Sat, Sunday. When Restaurants are jammed.

I say, "Bet you didn't know I Am a Magician. I can move TONS with my Mind."

Then You announce you will Clear A bunch of Front row Parking spaces.

AND YOU DO It.

I Like to Say The MAGIC WORDS out Loud. "Abra cadabra - Lots of Empty Spaces."

The Restaurant Seat Magic?

That I say over and over to myself.

For some Reason The Empty Seat Magic Makes People Nervous.

Final Surprise?

In The Years We've been Doing this - with The Same people even.

Nobody has Ever asked, "Who taught you That? Or "How do you do that?"

Nobody.

Funny, right?

Thanks,
Glenn Osborn
