Infostack

Deadline to get 4 copywriting bonuses that made the Infostack promo

by

Today is the deadline, in just 3 ominous hours from now, to get the Infostack copywriter’s bundle along with my special bonuses.

​​I won’t send any more emails about this offer before the deadline hits.

In case you missed my emails over the past few days:

The core Infostack offer is a bundle of 14 different copywriting courses, trainings, and ebooks, my 10 Commandments Of A-List Copywriters among them.

​​All these products sell on their own for a total of $555, but get the Infostack bundle and you can get them all for a grand total of $49.

I’m also offering some free bonuses to entice you to sign up. Speaking of which, I’ve gotten a bunch of replies during this promotion along the following lines:

“I purchased the Infostack package for your bonuses.”

“… this fine offer from infostack which I leaped on and mostly to get your bonus packages.”

“Grabbed it. And to be completely honest, after reading through Copy Riddles a bit, I swiped this offer specifically for your bonuses.”

“I wanted the Dan Ferrari gems [bonus #4 below], so here we are.”

​​[From an email sent to Infostack support, forwarded to me:] “I’ve sent you TWO requests, yesterday and today, to cancel and refund this transaction. I sent the requests through the Contact link on your website. I did this because I wanted John’s bonuses.”

I also got one person writing me to say about the Infostack bundle, “I don’t think this one will sell. They have again left out the values under each item.”

I won’t share specific sales numbers for this promo — what good are they to you — but I will say that by my standards, the promo did fine. And I’m writing this before the final batch of sales that always come in the last few hours.

That just goes to prove the old direct response adage that people will often buy the bonus rather than the core offer.

So if you ever find yourself stuck selling something bland (rather than SUPER or ideally SUPER Ultimate), then you can always help yourself out by taking a sheet of parchment, reaching for your goose quill and ink stand, and carefully writing down the following heading:

“10 ideas for cool bonuses to make this offer sell better”

That’s how I came up with my own bonuses for the Infostack Bundle. In case you’re curious, here they are:

1. Copywriting Portfolio Secrets ($97 value)

In this training, I show you how to build up your copywriting portfolio in the fastest and most efficient way, so you can start to win copywriting jobs even today. I show you the best way I’ve found to win 4- and 5-figure jobs I REALLY wanted, even when I wasn’t qualified for them, and how you can do it too.

I previously sold this training for $97. But it’s yours free if you take me up on my Infostack offer, which also includes my…

2. No-Stress Negotiation For Well-Paid Copywriters ($100 value)

This guide outlines my 7-part negotiating system, which I adapted from negotiation coach Jim Camp. This system kept me sane while I still regularly interviewed and worked with copywriting clients. Follow these seven principles, and you will end up making more money, working with better clients, and being able to stick to it for the long term.

I only offered this guide once before, as part of the $100 Copy Zone guide, which also featured….

3. How To Get Set Up On Upwork

This free bonus is an excerpt from a short self-published book I wrote once, How to Become a $150/Hr Sales Copywriter on Upwork: A Personal Success Story that Almost Anyone Can Replicate. It tells you how to actually get set up on Upwork — the details of your profile page, your description, your title.

If you combine this bonus with the two bonuses above — Copywriting Portfolio Secrets and No-Stress Negotiation — you have a great shot of winning a job on Upwork by the end of this week, or even today.

And finally, my bonus stack also includes…

4. Dan’s Timeless Wisdom (priceless, or $25k+)

Between August of 2019 and March 2020, I was in Dan Ferrari’s coaching group. As you might know, Dan started out as a star copywriter at The Motley Fool, and went on to become one of the most successful, most winning, big-money direct response copywriters working today.

Inside his coaching group, Dan dispensed copy critiques, marketing advice, and mystical koans to help his coaching students get to the next level.

At some point, I had the bright idea to start archiving the best and most valuable things that Dan was saying. I got 25 of them down, and they are all included in this document, which has until now only been shared with Dan and his coaching students.

(By the way, I never tallied up the exact and rather painful amount of money I paid Dan for the coaching. It was north of $25k. I do know I made it all back, and then some, in just the first two months after I stopped with the coaching, thanks to just one tip I got from Dan.)

So there you go. If you want the Ultimate Copywriter’s SUPER Stack for its $555.86 worth of value and inspiration, yours for just $49…

… or if you want my add-on bonuses for their $25,197/∞ value, yours free…

… then here’s what to do:

1. Buy the Ultimate Copywriter’s SUPER Bundle at https://bejakovic.com/infostack

2. You will then get an automated email from ThriveCart with a link to a special, members-only page on my site where you can access the four free bonuses above.

Important:

The deadline to get both the Infostack bundle and my bonuses is tonight at 8:31pm CET. After that, my bonuses go back to Barbieland. So if you want them, I suggest you get them now.

Psychographics of prospective copywriting clients

by

Last week, I advertised a writing job through this newsletter.

I got a few dozen applications coming in. As a result, I could confirm first-hand what I had figured out second-hand a long time ago, and that is the psychographics of prospective copywriting clients.

In case you’re curious, I’ll share these psychographics with you:

1. Prospective clients are busy

Copywriting clients have their own businesses to run and lots of other plates to spin. That’s why they are looking for a writer instead of writing themselves. It’s also how they have money to pay you.

2. Prospective clients do not enjoy the work of hiring a copywriter

Resumes/application emails are not fun to read. Neither is wit — not when it’s jammed like a head of lettuce into a job application. Neither are random samples of sales copy — not unless the client happens to be a member of the target audience for that copy, and even then.

3. Prospective clients will be swamped with applications

My list is not huge. I still got a few dozen applications following just one email. When I advertised on Upwork in the past, I got still more applications, towards 100, coming in for a single advertised writing job.

So what to do if you are a freelance copywriter looking for work?

The best way I found around the nasty psychographics above was to get into a position where I don’t have to apply for copywriting jobs, ever.

Yes, it can be done.

You can put yourself into a position where clients get referred to you or even seek you out — specifically because they are busy… and do not enjoy the work of hiring a copywriter… and do not want to be swamped with applications.

The trouble is, getting into such a position takes time or luck or ideally both.

So let me tell you about the second-best way.

This second-best way is designed to take into account the three psychographic elements above. By my estimate, it boosts your chances of winning a job about 20x-30x.

I’ve used this strategy while I was still applying to copywriting jobs, both when I was on Upwork and later off it, often winning out against 50+ other hungry copywriters.

I used this strategy to win 4- and 5-figure copywriting jobs, even when I was new in the industry and had little to nothing to say for myself… and also later, when I was more established, but I really wanted a specific job because it was such a great opportunity for whatever reason.

If that’s got you curious, then you can find this job application strategy described in detail in a short training I call Copywriting Portfolio Secrets. Earlier this year, I got a testimonial about this training from copywriter Kevin Wood:

===

Yo!

Your copywriting portfolio secrets workshop works like magic, even on Upwork in 2023.

[censored – Kevin explains how he applied the ideas in Copywriting Portfolio Secrets, with the result being…]

Pitched 100/hr with no job history, no reviews, only one ongoing job since they use Upwork to pay freelancers.

Got the job the next day. Should be a solid 3-4k/mo for the foreseeable future.

Shit works!

If you’re selling that training separately, I’d be happy to write up a better testimonial you can use.

===

I’ve sold Copywriting Portfolio Secrets previously for $97, but I’m giving it away for free now as a bonus to anyone who gets the Infostack copywriting bundle.

You can find out more about that bundle at the link below. But before you go there, here are three other free bonuses I will send you to complement the bundle and Bonus #1, Copywriting Portfolio Secrets:

Bonus #2. No-Stress Negotiation For Well-Paid Copywriters ($100 value)

This guide outlines my 7-part negotiating system, which I adapted from negotiation coach Jim Camp. This system kept me sane while I still regularly interviewed and worked with copywriting clients. Follow these seven principles, and you will end up making more money, working with better clients, and being able to stick to it for the long term.

I only offered this guide once before, as part of the $100 Copy Zone guide, which also featured….

Bonus #3. How To Get Set Up On Upwork

This free bonus is an excerpt from a short self-published book I wrote once, How to Become a $150/Hr Sales Copywriter on Upwork: A Personal Success Story that Almost Anyone Can Replicate. It tells you how to actually get set up on Upwork — the details of your profile page, your description, your title.

If you combine this bonus with the two bonuses above — Copywriting Portfolio Secrets and No-Stress Negotiation — you have a great shot of winning a job on Upwork by the end of this week, or even today.

And finally, my bonus stack also includes…

Bonus #4. Dan’s Timeless Wisdom (priceless, or $25k+)

That’s how long my offer with the bonuses above is good for. Your gotta buy this bundle before Friday at 8:31pm CET to get my bonuses. So if you know you want them, why not get them now?

Ultimate SUPER offer

by

I got a deal for you today. A SUPER deal. In fact, an ultimate SUPER deal.

A few days ago, I got an email with the subject line, “Hey John.”

“Hello,” I whispered, and I opened up the email. It read:

===

Hi John, how’s it going?

I wanted to see if there’s a way we could collaborate and share your work with an audience of over 250,000 copywriters and marketers.

My name is Nicole; I’m the head of partnerships at Infostack.io.

I love what you’re doing, and I wondered if we could talk about including 10 Commandments Of A-List Copywriters in an upcoming writing bundle we’re putting together (titled: The Ultimate Copywriter’s Super Stack)?

===

First, let me admit these Infostack people have a smart business model. Years ago, I was actually thinking to start the exact same thing—

Bring together a bunch of people who sell offers online… create a bundle of their offers… get all of them to drive traffic to your event… promote to your own existing and growing list built up via previous events… rinse and repeat as the whole thing becomes more profitable and easier to run.

“Sure,” I told Nicole. “I would love to collaborate and share my work with your audience of over 250,000 copywriters and marketers.”

So that’s what I’m doing today. I am participating in and promoting the Ultimate Copywriter’s SUPER Stack.

The Ultimate Copywriter’s SUPER Stack features a grand total of 14 ebooks… courses… trainings… even two “masterclasses.”

The collected value of the whole bundle is $555.86.

But the actual price it’s selling for during this special event is — well, you guessed it — not $555… not $455… not even $454… but just $49.

Now, I’ll be honest with you:

Aside from Ning Li (Dan Ferrari’s first coaching student and currently the copy chief at Paleo Hacks), I’ve never heard of a single one of these participating copywriters.

They are probably all fine people and very successful at what they do. I’m sure they have lots of value to share. The fact I’ve never heard of them probably just speaks to my crab-like ability to avoid networking.

What I can tell you is that I myself will get the SUPER Ultimate Stack today (the first day it’s available, even to me). I will be going through it over the next few days and selling you on what I believe to be standouts among the included trainings.

Still, you might think that’s a weak and wobbly pitch. So let me get to the meat of this email:

If you do decide to get this Ultimate SUPER stack, I want to guarantee it’s worth your $49 even if you don’t go through a single one of the participating trainings, courses, or ebooks (except my 10 Commandments of course, do read that because it’s great).

And so I’m offering you four FREE and yet SUPER-valuable bonuses. Specifically, I’m offering my:

1. Copywriting Portfolio Secrets ($97 value)

In this training, I show you how to build up your copywriting portfolio in the fastest and most efficient way, so you can start to win copywriting jobs even today. I show you the best way I’ve found to win 4- and 5-figure jobs I REALLY wanted, even when I wasn’t qualified for them, and how you can do it too.

I previously sold this training for $97. But it’s yours free, SUPER free, if you take me up on my Infostack offer, which also includes my…

2. No-Stress Negotiation For Well-Paid Copywriters ($100 value)

This guide outlines my 7-part negotiating system, which I adapted from negotiation coach Jim Camp. This system kept me sane while I still regularly interviewed and worked with copywriting clients. Follow these seven principles, and you will end up making more money, working with better clients, and being able to stick to it for the long term.

I only offered this guide once before, as part of the $100 Copy Zone guide, which also featured….

If you combine this bonus with the two bonuses above — Copywriting Portfolio Secrets and No-Stress Negotiation — you have a great shot of winning a job on Upwork by the end of this week, or even today.

And finally and most spectacularly, my SUPER Ultimate bonus stack also includes…

4. Dan’s Timeless Wisdom (priceless, or $25k+)
