This morning, I woke up, stood up, blinked, stumbled to the living room, and reached, addict-like, for my laptop. I checked my email. The first email started with,
===
Hi John!
Thanks for all your patience.
Now, let’s get you paid.
===
That’s for some work I did at the end of last year. The money is finally arriving. Today of all days.
I say today of all days because today and the past few days, since the start of this month, strange things have been happening.
I made more no-deadline sales of my Most Valuable Email and Copy Riddles programs than I had since I created these offers.
I’ve had a surprising number of people replying to my emails with interesting comments.
I’ve had a new surge of email subscribers.
I’ve also spent more money on new courses and trainings than I had in the past two years’ total.
And all this has been happening while I’ve been keeping most of my attention on another project I have been working on, which I believe has the potential to be much bigger than this Bejakovic newsletter, and which I am looking at as real business, unlike this Bejakovic newsletter, which was and remains primarily a daily way to feed my curiosity and need for novelty and some kind of creative work.
You might wonder why I’m telling you this, or why you might possibly care.
A while ago, I wrote how I believe there’s a secret spider web. This spider web connects copywriting clients. There’s another spider web for money-making opportunities. There’s even one for women in your life, if women are what interests you.
And here’s what I’ve found, over and over in my life:
Once you start jumping up and down on one corner of that web, no matter how remote, it gets the attention of the other spiders, I mean clients, I mean women, or business partners, or customers, or people who owe you money. And if you keep jumping up and down, they will seek you out. Sooner or later.
It’s true the other way around also.
If things are not going as you like in your life, if nobody is seeking you out, if no pleasant coincidences are happening to you regularly, there’s a good chance that the spider web has grown silent and still.
You might think I’m just telling you to take action. In different ways. And to keep taking action, even if the action seems futile.
And yes, action is how you jump up and down the spider web, and how you set it vibrating.
But if you ask me, there’s value in having a story to tell yourself, or an image to keep in your head, or an analogy that you can believe in.
For me, I’ve found the image of jumping up and down spider web works much better than the rough command, “keep taking action.”
Maybe this image will work better for you as well.
And who knows. Maybe there really is a secret spider web, and maybe you really can make it vibrate.
And now, it’s time for me to do some jumping myself.
So if you’d like to spend some money as a way of getting your spider web vibrating, then take a look at my Copy Riddles program.
I’ve put a lot of work into this program, and I’m proud of what I’ve been able to create.
At the most basic level, Copy Riddles is about writing sexy sales bullets. But beyond that, Copy Riddles is really about the fundamentals of sales copywriting. But beyond that, Copy Riddles is really about the essence of effective communication, whether in a sales context or not.
Maybe those are grandiose claims. So let me bring it down to earth, and share what copywriter Liza Schermann wrote me after going through Copy Riddles:
===
The entire course is an a-ha moment. Because you see these things from other copywriters or you read other copy, but you don’t see what’s behind it or why it’s working. Your course shows what happens behind the scenes. Why is this working… and why is this working in this specific case… and why it wouldn’t maybe work in another case.
