                     Gary Halbert a copywriting great



Secret copywriting tips from Bond
Halbert
Many marketers would like to master the secrets of a famous copywriter, the late Gary
Halbert. The word Secret as in Secret copywriting tips - is a word that copywriters in the
guru-mould just love to throw around.

Whether you work in a main-stream business or the arts, I think you should pay attention
below, to this interview and article combined. It is an instance of something rare - that will
help all marketers.

The latest Internet Marketing Speed newsletter from Australian Internet marketer James
Schramko was in fact so remarkably good, that I felt that I must bring it to the notice of Arts
and Non-profits marketers like you. It is a good fit for any market environment. It comes from
a copywriting family who have covered all bases.

It would be a shame to walk by - and miss out this excellent Schramko’s interview with a
competent copywriter who is the son of a genuine giant in the field of marketing copywriting,
the late Gary Halbert.

It was a disarmingly personal, generous and revealing 30 minutes. I link you to the
video shortly.

What rang best for me was that Bond Halbert was so relaxed and open that he revealed
many practical insights. Among many honest and obviously market-tested observations
were:

       Good idea to just write first, whatever you feel might be useful to your readers
       about a topic, rather than hack and chip your way into it, worrying about how
       good it is. Don’t restrict yourself at that stage. Polish later. That could mean
       forgetting about key words and powerful headlines.
       Second, you have an advantage as a copy writer, if the topic is one that you have
       a passion about or that is specific to the excitement you feel about the daily
       achievement and work your prospective reader.

In the case of arts and non-profits marketers, I feel, you have an additional advantage:
you don’t have to ginger-up enthusiasm in order to convince. Involvements, passion and
commitment are your stock-in-trade.



The interview itself demonstrates these clear, valuable tips about effective
interviewing

        This was one incidental but unexpected bonus from a marketing newsletter, in this case
        Schramko’s: Their chat rolled along with remarkably few questions and almost no
        interruptions from the interviewer. (Dr Wilson of Internet Marketing Online is another of the
        few ‘professionals’ with similar restraint.)

        Arts and on-profits marketers often need to interview, in order to obtain evidence and
        endorsements of their offers and to elicit information from clients.

        Allowing an interviewee to extend his answers can sometimes prove alarming for you, but a
        short remark, even a phrase-only, keeps him on track most times. In this instance, Bond
        relaxed and was more revealing as he forgot about the camera and microphone. Rare

        These were both unusual events to happen with mainstream marketing ‘experts’ but they
        account for a deeply interesting and sometimes very personal recollections, all of which rang
        true.




And isn’t that what you are trying to achieve in your copy writing? It certainly makes a connection
with the reader and viewer. Hope you enjoy it and let James Schramko (or me) know what you feel.

    1. I have noticed that marketers in the Non-Profits and Arts industries were interested in
       another post that I published here several weeks ago. It’s about a Crisis in Messaging
       uncovered by a new survey of a large group of non-profits marketers. It can’t be seen listed
       in the right hand column at the moment. You can read it here
