So, I published this page on August 22nd, 2019 with the title: “Dan Kennedy in Hospice and Near Death.”
Several emails went out from a variety of sources declareding Dan had passed away.
At the time of this writing on 02/02/2020 the latest is Dan is ON THE MEND. Oh, you cynics… this was NOT a marketing stunt. š
Praised be God.
Life is short — no one knows when it’s his time. May Dan continue to do what he does best!
Original message:
============
Dan Kennedy has been a worldwide force in direct response for over three decades and it’s saddening to learn this news.
This appears to be Dan’s final message to his friends and colleagues in the marketing world. Only Dan Kennedy would be sure to include fitting cartoons in this good-bye. His sense of humor and spirit triumph.
The man has been so prolific for so long and in so many areas, it defies belief.
Here are a few off the top of my head: copywriting, direct mail, platform sales, face to face sales, coaching and consulting, print newsletters and newsletter marketing, membership businesses, membership ascension, time management, marketing to the affluent, event marketing, seminar marketing, professional practice marketing systems, infomercials, wealth attraction, personality in advertising, peak performance, direct response history and all flavors of information marketing.
Above all he’s been a consummate student of human nature and human behavior from the get-go.
While Dan may have had no Wikipedia page, he is a GIANT to thousands around the marketing world and his teachings are invaluable to countless business owners and entrepreneurs.
Prayers for him and his family.
