Hey Scott,

Sorry, I don't know of any templates to point you to. I'll ask around but most mailers either have designers on staff or use freelancers to design each individual promo.

A cut and paste template is a little difficult because your choice of sidebars, pull-quotes and graphics and where you place them will vary package to package based on the copy.

That doesn't mean there aren't solutions but I ain't got one to give ya' right now. I'll see if I can dig a resource up for you from one the design guys here though.

Thank you so much John.

In my neck of the woods (Nova Scotia, Canada), virtually nothing of any copywriting value finds its way into my mailbox. This is great.

If I remember right this Bottomline Books promotion was yours too:

Bottomline Books -- 'Gin Soaked Raisins'

Great Stuff!

John

P.S. For anyone not familiar with David, he's easily one of the top copywriters in the business. And he's got a kick-butt program for how to come up with powerful ideas and thinking creatively -- check out www.ThinkingInside.com

Yup -- those are my gin-soaked raisins. Thanks for the plug for my creativity course!

John, just curious are you aware of any tested copy for Til Forbid or Autoship supplement offers?

FYI, It's when someone buys a product & it's automatically sent every month until canceled.

Thanks,
Mark

Sorry for the black and white on this one. My old scanner sucked and my hard copy is in a box somewhere.

Thanks John,

Quality stuff here!

Okay, here's a blockbuster control for ya. It's Kent Komae's Joint Advantage promotion. Pardon the pen marks in some spots -- I'm sure you'll still find it valuable...

Kent Komae's Beyond Glucosamine and Chondroitin promo

Enjoy,
John

And here's a bookalog from Prevention Magazine to add to your files. It's a big 'un -- 77 pages in all...

Prevention Bookalog

Cheers!

These are amazing. Nobody is helping copywriters and marketers the way you folks here are. We all thank you!

John, who wrote the Prevention Bookalog copy? It rocks! How long has it been a control?

Do you happen to have any other Kent Komae samples or controls/a-level copy for weight loss, Omega 3 or natural sleep aid products you can send me?

Thank YOU,

Hi from Italy! I don't understand why I didn't receive any reply or a thanks for my post and the samples I've sent in the "Magalog on the web..." thread. I'm sure the 2 webalogs links are great examples, but no one say a thing about them. At 90% one of it is from the Great Clayton, but no one confirmed it.
Now, I want to share with you a website with great stuff inside, the link below offers dozen examples of magalogs and direct mail pieces for health products.
I hope this time to receive a message from someone, it's very sad to see that no one considers my efforts to partecipate in this forum...

All the best from Italy,
Marco.
