A Book Like No Other Available Anywhere.
Riveting stories of unknown advertising copywriters who wrote 4-page, single-spaced direct mail letters describing non-existent products. The copy was so compelling and believable these authors brought in tens of millions of dollars that launched huge businesses. Denny Hatch invites you to savor these powerhouse letters and steal smart (to maybe make millions for yourself)!
What Reviewers Said About Method Marketing:
“... the examples chosen here are powerful — and more important — their workings are explained in detail. Best letters are dissected and parsed down to individual words, with statistics and results. Hatch’s colloquial tone attracts even readers not used to advertising matters; eloquent stories such as the fall of Covenant House, for instance, will not fail to mesmerize.”—Barbara Jacobs, Booklist
Method Marketing shows how to write successful direct marketing copy by putting yourself in the customer’s shoes. Packed with case histories of modern direct response success stories, including Bill Bonner of Agora Publishing and Martin Edelston of Boardroom, Inc.” —Robert W. Bly
“Written in a fun and conversational tone, this book was hard to put down. As founder of the newsletter Who’s Mailing What! Hatch owned the largest private collection of direct mail. At one time, advertisers were sending him 3,000 to 4,000 letters a month. He is a direct mail expert indeed.” — Katherine Kay, Inside Business
I
am delighted to bring you this new edition of Denny Hatch’s 1990 classic in
print and e-book formats. Method Marketing is guaranteed to enrich the
careers of a new generation of marketing and advertising professionals as well
as business communicators of all ages.”—Marshal
Glickman, Owner-Publisher

ReplyDeleteDenny,
What is the point you are making in this article?
Are you suggesting something evil?

Dear BM,
Many thanks for taking the time to write.
I am fascinated by the marketing of artworks at high prices. E.g.:

I stumbled onto this painting researching some work of art a long time ago — don’t remember where or when. It seemed odd — and intriguing at the time. So I created a file on it, thinking it might surface sometime in the future.
I am apolitical and so depressed at all the current news I’m on Zoloft and Ambien. I spend most of my TV spare time traveling the world on YouTube. Favorite traveling companions: Michael Portillo’s on great Railroad Journeys of the World (BBC) and Steve Marsh.
Last week the unthinkable happened. In the avalanche of news, I did not see any reference to this painting. The media totally missed it. So I resurrected it and featured it in a blog post.
The marketing/advertising connection: The Saatchi & Saatchi — the seller — is the largest agency in the UK and huge worldwide. This is their mischief. Not mine.
Quite simply, this is not “evil.” This is very relevant “news.”
Thanks again for writing. Do keep in touch.

ReplyDeleteThanks.
I work with people of all ages to get them off those meds.
To me, at least, the message I received was “hey, here’s an idea”
A lesson in communication, I suppose.
Be well.
If I can help with the depression, let me know. For 17 years as a professional hypnotist, I help with it all day every day.
A friend commented on the Trump assassination attempt: "Amateur or Manchurian Candidate." Think about it.
