Dear Friend,

Why am I knocking $200 off one of the most powerful copywriting assets you may ever get your hands on?

There are three good reasons.

First off, you’re a valued subscriber.

Second, you didn’t take me up on the “bug out bag” of winning ads.

Maybe you missed it.

Maybe the timing wasn’t right.

Perhaps, the pot wasn’t sweet enough.

Or maybe I failed to convey the startling power that lets you ride the money making WAVE of some of the most profitable ads ever created.

And the last reason for the whopping savings?

In this upside down world of ours… we need all the winning ideas we can get… now more than ever.

Here’s one.

How’s this for a hot headline?

You peak out your window at night and a raging inferno looks back.

All hundred thousand acres of it!

That’s about the size of the country of Andorra.

The Bighorn Fire morphed from a single lighting strike in the bone-dry Santa Catalina Mountains into a blaze so big, a NASA satellite captured the view of the billowing smoke from space.

And if you think 2020 has been exciting so far…

Let me tell you.

A fire of that size headed your way has the unique ability to SHARPEN your mind.

It also makes most of the stuff people have been worrying about during this roller coaster ride of 2020… almost obsolete.

Tons of red fire retardant dropped by a squadron of DC-10s
couldn’t stop “the Bighorn.”

One thousand strong “hotshot” crew plus DC-10s at work

While I’m typing this from the comfort of an air conditioned office, the “hotshot” firefighting crews are working on narrow mountain ledges, among rattlesnakes and jumping cacti in 100 degree (38 C) temperatures… all while wearing 80-pound packs.

I’m grateful to these men and women and I’ve got nothing to complain about, no matter what the latest news on the screen shows.

The danger is over (for now) but it was a close call.

Because in my patch of cactus country…

There’s only one road out of Dodge

And when a blaze that menacing is racing toward your backyard… you’ve got to be ready to BUG OUT.

So on June 11th, I packed our bags.

Here’s my bug out bag.

It’s filled with all the familiar staples of 2020:

Clorox wipes, Vitamin-C packets, ammo (even grannies pack around here), aspirin and, of course, that most coveted of commodities in the States, toilet paper.

And while I was packing my bug out bag and the Bighorn Fire threat was at its worst … I was contemplating not having an “archive room” to return to, if an evacuation order was issued.

There was just no time for salvaging a decade and a half of junk mail.

Sorry Bill Jayme – “junque mail.”

So besides shaking the slumber of the last few months out of me, the Bighorn Fire also sparked an idea.

The Bug Out Bag of Winning Ads!

If you had to salvage ONLY the most valuable money-making … response-getting … grab it in your hands and GO … winning advertising…

This might be it!

(Note: all this and so much more is yours, after you snag your virtual “bug out” bag.)

Your MOST valuable asset?

The Bighorn Fire was another reminder.

I’ve lost it all more than once.

And I’ve come close more times than I can recall.

But do you know what can NEVER be stripped away… no matter what goes down in the world around us?

It’s WINNING IDEAS.

Because if you’ve got those, you have the means to get it all back and then some.

They’re your most valuable asset.

But first a…

WARNING! If you’re looking for fancy graphics or “java jumping jacks”… this is NOT for you.

But if you’d like to tap into the power of winning direct response… and countless IDEA JACKPOTS for you and your business… without spending a million on products and subscriptions…. you’ve come to the right place.

Because if you’re in the business of selling one-to-many… you’ll have more:

REAL world, money-making ideas…

than any marketer or copywriter can deploy in five years… no matter your industry… no matter where you’re located.

Here’s even more:

MAGIC subject line from quarter BILLION dollar company… yanks response from ANY List. So good it was turned into a direct mail package.

SNEAKY subscription selling secrets. An IRRESISTIBLE offer that’s 100% above board… yet wrings out every last ounce of response.

“There are few who can hold a candle to Lawrence Bernstein when it comes to knowledge of direct mail and print advertising, past and present. I turn to him for one reason and one reason only — because he’s a walking encyclopedia. His input has helped me with significant customer events.”

(Perry Marshall, The man’s got a Wiki page.)

“From zero to $20 million in two years… at 25 years of age”

(João Eduardo de Campos, Brazilian direct response entrepreneur)

“Looking for BIG IDEAS that could catapult your copy (and your royalties) into the big leagues?

Lawrence has always been my GO-TO guy for finding direct response blockbusters (recent and back to the beginning of time)…

… that light up the neural pathways, and spark connections and ideas I would have never considered otherwise.

Ad Money Machine is aptly named – a resource no self-respecting direct response copywriter can live without!

(Kelvin Parker, Kelvin Parker, Direct Response Copywriter, CustomerTriggeredPersuasion.com)

“Lawrence. The truth is I lied ! A few days ago when I messaged you that I had already made the price of admission (7500usd) by just reading half of your direct mail masterpiece well let’s just say it was 10 times that. I thank the Lord for having rediscovered you again.”

(Peter Nicholas, Australian serial entrepreneur and world beating health & beauty brand builder)

“Thanks to your guidance, my business is booming. I literally have more clients than I can handle.”

(Financial copywriter, (Awaiting permission to use his name.)

“I love receiving packages from you. You’re like a Direct-Response Santa.”

(Dr. Karl Blanks, Chairman and Co-Founder of Conversion Rate Experts with clients including: GE, Lloyds, Apple, Google, Facebook, Amazon, Sony, Vodafone and PayPal)

“If I told you how many times I made my investment back I would lose all credibility.

Lawrence, I really have to thank you for your very clever and powerful marketing tool. The tool responsible for our surge in sales!

Every company — direct response or not — should get their hands on it. If you don’t make at least 25 times or more on your investment I don’t think you opened the package and followed the step by step instructions.

(Direct response founder, Anonymous)

“God, Lawrence, I really appreciate your stuff, so here’s a testimonial:

If you want to succeed gloriously in this business (assuming you have any talent, of course) sit down for a month and read, learn and practice the principles you unearth in this treasury of great stuff. Marvelous!”

(Drayton Bird, Direct marketing legend, London)

“You’re one crazy dude to do all this work, but until you get therapy, I’ll take advantage of it with glee!”

(Dr. Jack Booman, Leading Chiro copywriter, Spring Grove, Minn.)

“As a marketing enthusiast and dedicated student of the craft, I’m constantly searching for valuable insight and information. And once I found YOU (many years ago) I felt like I had finally found what I was looking for.

I was right.

Since that day, EVERY marketing strategy, sales system, retention model, acquisition model, process, advertisement, etc., that I have executed started with FIRST referencing one or more elements from you, your website, or your partners. From my own house ads to ads for my clients, the foundation of everything I have done began with listening to your teachings, or the teachings of those that you reference/endorse. Dead or alive.

I now own and operate a successful digital ad agency with over 50 employees (give or take a few employees depending on economics 😉 and feel as though I owe you more than a bit of gratitude for my success.

(Digital agency founder, received 1/7/14, prefers anonymity)

“I get loads of emails from online marketers looking to sell me stuff to improve my marketing, but I trust Lawrence to deliver quality every time.”

(Jamie Sylvian, London)

“By the way, Lawrence, I should thank you directly…

Back in early November, Michael Masterson and I gave a speech at the AWAI Copy Bootcamp in Delray that dealt, in part, with the value of focusing on one theme rather than many in headlines and leads.

And the example I threw into our Powerpoint came directly from your website (attributed) where you compared two products for better vision. Naturally, I don’t remember much about the convoluted example. But the better version came from Gene S., “Your Eyes Can Heal Themselves…”

I don’t know where you find this stuff, but the examples were invaluable at making a strong point quickly.

I hope some of the 300-400 people present took my advice during the talk and went looking for your site.”

(John Forde, A-List copywriter and Parisian)

“Lawrence is the world’s greatest direct response researcher.”

(Gary Bencivenga, Copywriting legend)

This is REALLY GOOD STUFF! Also, GREATLY, appreciate the fact that you blew up the examples and published them in a Tabloid format.

Not everyone would go to the expense of doing that, but its the BEST way to see these examples. Thanks, AGAIN, for making this course available.

(Real estate marketing guru, Name withheld)

“Your manual has been instrumental in me writing an ad that generated over $20,000 in just two weeks, so cudos to you Lawrence.”

Dr. Ivan Carney, Temecula, CA

“My jaw is literally black and blue from hitting the floor over and over again as I got to see the techniques you’ve uncovered. I never dreamed many of these things were even possible, let alone how easy you’ve made them. The word ‘miraculous’ comes to mind.”

(Ken McCarthy, System Seminar Founder)

“If you want to learn what it really takes to sell – well, every single thing he shows has a lesson. I got two ideas this morning for something I am working on, which is actually a get-rich-slowly-but-surely educational service for marketers.”

(Drayton Bird, David Ogilvy said of him: “Drayton Bird knows more about direct marketing than anyone in the world.”)

“I want to take a moment to thank you for providing these updates. You are one of those rare marketers who supports his customers LONG after the sale.

(Karl Barndt, Kuncketown, Penn.)

“I want to thank you very much for coming out to Paradise Valley. It was a great day together with you. We very much appreciate your deep knowledge, insight and love and passion for the history and present of our industry.”

(Norman Rentrop, Founder Rentrop Verlag and one of Europe’s biggest direct marketers)

“Lawrence, you are probably the most dedicated direct response scholar I’ve ever met.”

Tony Flores, Financial Copywriter and longtime #1 to Clayton Makepeace

“I think you’re a genius.”

(Christian Godefroy, European direct response legend)

“I saw you on the Gary Bencivenga retirement DVDs that I purchased. Great publicity for you.

I have to tell you, combining Gary’s wisdom with your swipe files is a lethal weapon.

Confidentially, because I’m not a braggart (in fact, you’re the first person I’ve told this to), my design partner and I have beaten A-list, world-class copywriting and design competition – 4 straight times. That’s how much I’ve benefited from–and appreciate – your material.”

(Rich Silver, Crow Moon Marketing, Dahlonega, GA )

“Brilliant examples, great commentary. This one just gave me an idea for a newsletter we’re about to launch that I think will hit large. I don’t know where you find this stuff, but I’m glad you do.”

(John Forde, Paris)

“If Lawrence has got a product for sale, you should get it!”

(Marty Edelston, Direct response legend and Founder of Boardroom Inc.)

Question: “What happens if there’s a snafu after checkout and I cannot successfully register my username and password?”

Answer: Don’t fret, send me an email and I’ll get you squared away. I wish the occasional tech failure wasn’t a part of life, but it is.

Question: “How long will I have access to these ad collections?”

Answer: There is no expiration and no rush to download everything in a day. You can login today, next week and even next year.

Question: “I’ve been reading your emails for a while, but have never purchased anything yet. What do I do once I get this collection on my computer?”

Answer: Every ad in this collection is in “easy to read” and “easy to download” PDF format. I’m partial to Gary “the Great” Bencivenga’s “ad-a-day.” Because reading a great ad each day is one of the best ways to strengthen your “copywriting muscles.”

Plus, there’s bountiful “inside information” and thorough explanation, you won’t find anywhere else… to lock in your understanding… and implement what you uncover.

Question: “Why are you offering an unconditional 60-day money back guarantee on this one?”

Answer: When I was on “red-alert” and the fire was racing my way, there was no time for attachments. I was ready to hop in the mini-van for a quick egress. Likewise, this one is friction-free.

I’ve thrown a million in resources into this one. There are countless “idea jackpots” awaiting you. But if for some reason you’re not ecstatic, you can claim a friction-free refund within 60 days. No hard feelings — I’ve got a jammed calendar either way

Question: “I’ve bought some of your products before and been very happy with them. What’s new in this collection?”

Answer: It’s not just one collection but MULTIPLE money-making archives. There’s a TON of “new” old school ads, as well as this month’s HOTLINE promos… and more here than most marketers could deploy in five years.

I love long copy as much as the next guy or gal… but it’s time to wrap this up.

I’ve pulled out ALL the stops

Now “the choice is yours” as they say in direct response.

Because you’re a valued subscriber, I’m knocking $200 off the price tag during this short promotion.

As General MacArthur said: “There is no security on this earth. Only opportunity.”

Forget about “survival mode.”

There’s abundant opportunity around you, if you’ve got great IDEAS… and take ACTION.

Yours for bolder response,

Lawrence Bernstein
(The world’s most obsessed ad archivist)
