2006 - the 700 million dollar man

I call myself “the most ripped-off
copywriter on the Web” because it’s true --
marketers have, for years, stalked my ads and
knocked them off for their own sales efforts. And my most legendary
direct mail letters, Web sites and print ads are used as “study guides” by
advanced, super-savvy businessmen world-wide.

I don’t speak at seminars very often, but when
I do I’m usually a featured attraction. I’ve been the keynote speaker for a
couple of Dan Kennedy Boot Camps, the most recent “Big Seminar” in LA put
on by the amazing Armand Morin, and many other major events. (Including
seminars by Carl Galletti, Ken McCarthy, Kendrick Cleveland, and even
Gary Halbert himself.)

My own seminars -- like the notorious “Copywriting
Sweatshop” and the ground-breaking “License To Steal” workshop --
sell out at $5,000 a seat.

My blog (www.john-carlton.com) is read
by vast numbers of people from the red-hot core of the marketing world.

And I could go on with the self-promoting, but
I’m blushing.

Because, you see, I’m actually a fairly shy
guy... who was happy working behind the scenes as the notoriously-anonymous
“secret weapon” copywriter.

But working
with Gary changed all that. He forced me onstage, kicked my
butt to go after larger and more ambitious goals... and refused to quit
badgering me until I finally started the Rant newsletter, and started giving my
own seminars.
