From a direct response copywriter's perspective...a lot of business owners simply have a fear of direct response copy. They think it's either too "salesie" or too much "hype" but the fact of the matter is, direct response copy converts more sales! The thing most people forget is that direct response copy and advertising is the "forefather" all the modern advertising you see. Take a look at hardtofindads.com when you can. Internet businesses tend jump on the latest cutting-edge technology to market their products and services but often neglect - whether through fear or choppy strategy - the proven formula of direct response copy for increased conversions to sales. At least...that's my take on it. Warmest Regards, Rasheed Honestly Andrew…

Re: Bianca: you'd better not let my wife hear that. I think she's got my wife's eyes though, rather than my squinty ones... Hi Dave,

On the other hand, I've seen video-only campaigns, lacking the support of a good direct response website on the backend that's left me wondering why there's a missing element. Re: Bianca: Thanks!

Took my family to DisneyWorld in Orlando, FL (USA) in January 2006 and I noticed some of the same things. Another thing - we stayed in one of the Disney hotels and were looking for a quick fast food type place to take the kids (like McDonald's, Burger King, etc.). So we asked the front desk if there was a McDonald's somewhat local to the hotel... Well, to our surprise, she said she was "unfortunately not allowed to give out that information", though she was very pleasant and instead offered a Disney-owned alternative! Internet Marketing lesson - Give your visitors one choice...one clear call to action (i.e., don't put contextual ads on your salesletters!). -d. PS: I agree wtih Rasheed...Bianca looks *exactly* like you, Andrew... I like posts like this which recount offline experiences and note the marketing lessons observed.

Yes, I truly believe the multi-sensory approach has been missing online for quite some time. With the advent of "video marketing" and the evolution of "audio marketing" I think we're going to see a lot of up and coming super-star independent marketers and companies dominate in both affiliate marketing and direct product sales. Wow, Bianca looks SOOO much like you man! Warmest Regards, Rasheed Great post Andrew!
