Can you persuade?
Do you know how to compel people to act, fight corporate speak, and leave a powerful impression?
Do you know the secrets of clear writing, what to cut to be concise, and the words you shouldn't cut?
Do you know how to shake off academic complexity, turn prospects into customers, or convert words into cash?
Or is copywriting still a bit of a mystery?
Struggling with low conversions?
Nervous about pressing publish?
Hesitant about pressing send?
Tired of bad copy costing you money?
Failing to captivate your customers?There's a very good reason for it all.And it's not your fault.

"John’s copywriting guide is a godsend to writers, wannabe writers, and those who think they aren’t cut out for writing. I can’t wait to see what gets added over time and to keep growing as a writer. It’s giving me the confidence to raise my copywriting rates. Phenomenal resource. 10/10."

School taught you terribly
Actually, it's worse than that.They taught you the exact opposite of what you should do.Here are the 11 ways school inadvertently screwed you:
01/ No practical application
You weren't taught how to be clear, engaging, persuasive, or convincing.Instead, English class focused on writing essays about books.
02/ Misunderstanding of purpose
You weren't taught to consider the purpose of your writing.And you weren't taught to understand the needs and expectations of an audience.
03/ Writing was "creative"
You were taught to see writing as a creative pursuit instead of a skill that needed to be developed and improved.Nobody told you words are a tool.
"No doubt, his guides, advice, and professional execution will be of benefit to any potential client"

“I've been following and learning from John on LinkedIn since February. So purchasing his guide was an easy decision. John consistently delivers a remarkable level of quality, and the guide is no exception. In fact, I've immediately made several adjustments on my website. Now, it feels more welcoming and human :)”

04/ Rewarded for bad writing
Your teachers had misconceptions about what good writing is.They rewarded long, complex, flowery language.
05/ Little emphasis on editing
You weren't taught to understand what could be edited or deleted.Instead, you were incentivised to hit an arbitrary word count.
06/ Lack of coaching
Without feedback and coaching, you weren't aware of your writing weaknesses.Feedback was vague like "be more descriptive" or "be more analytical".
"He's first to mind when any of my clients ask for a copywriter, for a damn good reason."

"With 30 years of bid writing under my belt, I thought I was a professional. I was wrong. This guide has already improved my writing in leaps and bounds, and I find myself going back it every time I compose and then edit. One of the best investments you can make in yourself, and strongly recommended to anyone who writes anything for a living."
John Leonard—
Bid Writer | Fixatex Ltd
07/ Writing was undervalued
Functional writing skills weren't given as much attention as subjects like maths and science.Algebra and the periodic table were prioritised over a skill with the tools of communication.
08/ Writing was made complicated
You were taught to obsess over grammar.Or you weren't taught about it at all.
09/ Writing was solitary
You were taught to consider writing a solitary activity discouraging you from seeking feedback.So when it got hard you felt alone and had nobody to turn to for help.
"John is one of the best copywriters I know. The amount of dedication he puts into his craft is extraordinary."
Lara Acosta—
Social Media Marketer | LA Digital
“The information inside the guide blew my mind away! It wasn't a guide that only said "Write short sentences." It showed which factors to keep in mind. What makes people read (or skip). What tactics to use. With examples. What's even better? I'll get all the updates he makes to the guide for free. FOREVER.”
Sayanta Goswami—
LinkedIn Ghostwriter
10/ Gifted not skilled
Nobody told you writing well is a skill anyone can learn.It felt like there were a fortunate few bestowed with mastery, and you're either born a good writer or not.
11/ No preparation for business
Nobody uttered the word "copywriting" or what it means to use words to sell and persuade.And so, you've had zero preparation for writing at work or in business.
Hey, maybe you enjoyed English at school. But did it teach you the writing skills you need today?Or did it just teach you to pass exams?
"If good writing was illegal, John Harrison would be serving a life sentence."

And that bad training still affects you today
No wonder good writing is elusive.You've never had it broken down or shown to you. You've just been doing your best.You've been making best guesses, knowing that you need to be clear and concise but not knowing how.
Everything's at risk
Here's the impact:
01/ Ineffective communication
You struggle to express your thoughts clearly and effectively, which likely impacts your business or career growth.
02/ No audience engagement
Devoid of purpose or audience understanding, your writing fails to resonate or engage. Quite isolating.
03/ Feeling lost
In circumstances where communication is valued you may feel completely inadequate.
04/ Fear of mistakes
School's grading system, which favoured adherence to rules over creativity, may have instilled a fear of making mistakes.
05/ Lost opportunity
Misconceptions about effective writing have led to misunderstandings that have potentially cost you opportunities in your professional life.
06/ Communication skill gap
The disconnect between academia and everyday communication has left you unaware of how to fix it, or worse, blind to bad writing.
"The level of obsession, skill, passion, and attention to detail on show for his craft is incredible."

And so...
You can’t effectively make your point, your writing is unfocused, your message is unnecessarily cluttered, your writing lacks insight. It rarely achieves what you had hoped. It feels either rigid or unstructured and the gems hidden in it are suffocated by how you were taught.Opportunity, hindered.
Reputation, damaged.
Ideas, muted.
And if you don’t change:
01/ You rely on luck
You rely on how well you can guess what a good writer would have written.
02/ Other people out-write you
+ They get your client
+ They make your money
+ They have your freedom
+ They land your dream job
+ They enjoy your pay rise
+ They launch your business
+ They become the authority
+ They secure your investment
+ They convince your customers
+ They persuade your prospects
They dictate your future by better controlling the tools of communication.Words.
"I’ve already gone through it twice since purchasing! It's been a game changer for me. I bought the course to improve my writing. I didn't expect the section on editing to have such a profound impact on me. The mindset shift I experienced as a result is beyond words. My perspective on writing has changed since investing in your course."
