Plus, many others who
names are right out of the FORTUNE 500!
So anywhay, please do me this favor.
Just look over the material in the sealed envelope and then call my
office. If you decide you are not interested simply ask for Miss
Fletcher and tell her to take your name off our…
On the other hand, if you are going to
subscrive, I'd be honored if, when you call, you would chat with
me personally
for just a few moments.
Either way, thanks for your time.
Sincerly,

P.S.
Look,
I know you don't
need $5 but it was worth it to me if I was able to catch your
attention. So, please feel free to keep my fiver and buy flowers for
your sweatheart or perhaps give it to charity. All I can say is thank you for
reading this letter and giving it your…
P.P.S.
By
the way, my phone
number is (323) 851-8275. It. Would be a big favor to me, if you would
not only call today but, if you would call even if you are going to
subscribe by mail.
Thank you.
And,
what's inside the sealed envelope referred to in my thick rope
letters? Aha! It…
Now,
don't you think this approach has a better chance of working than
me running an ad for marketing neophytes that screams out
something
like...
HEY,
STRUGGLING BUSINESS PEOPLE!
YOU
WANNA SPEND $195.00
TO
LET SOME EGOMANIAC
TEACH
YOU HOW TO ADVERTISE?
It's
no contest. No contest at all.

Recently,
I had the pleasure of speaking with a really sharp 74-year young
gentleman by the name of Bill Carroll. Bill's from Dallas, Texas and
back in 1968 he wrote a…
Now, I
dare say if you'd run his rope ̃em in gently letter by any ad agency in
America, they'd tell you this folksy, low-key approach doesn't have a
chance.
Oh yeah?
It pulled in 31% and $1.2 million worth of trailers were sold because
of that letter. Check it out; it's on the…

Dear Mr. Scallan:
My wife (she's a school teacher) said I shouldn't write this letter.
She said when you write to a big outfit you should write a real formal
letter on fancy stationary…
Maybe she's right. She's smart...has a master's and everything. Me? I
was luck to squeek through a little cow college in West Texas.
I sell American office trailers. You know the kind. Outside, they look
like mobile homes. Inside, they have built in desks, plan tables,
washrooms...the whole bit. They're mobile offices, sell at…
No Mr. Scallan, I'm not trying to sell you a trailer. You don't bother
with nit-pickin' stuff like this, but somebody in your company buys or
rents trailers from time to time.
Big outfits like yours with lots of divisions and branch offices may
have a dozen men who buy or rent trailers. I'm referring not…
My problem is this. I'm on the outside, looking in. Who to contact? Who
to put on our mailing list, mail our specs and prices to?...besides the
P.A.'s, that is.
I just need to know who these men are--names, titles, where they hang
their hats. Will you tell me?
If my wife is right, you'll drop this in the permanent file.
If I'm right, a memo from your assistant will tell me who I need to
contact. I'll mail them specs and prices. When they need a trailer,
they can phone me.
You're sitting in "Solomon's Seat". Is my wife right, or am I?
Sincerly,
Bill Carroll

# Welcome To The Gary Halbert Letter
From:
Gary C. Halbert
North of Jewfish Creek
Thursday, 8:37 a.m.
Dear Friend,
I have no idea how you got to this website.
Maybe you read about it in some publication. Maybe a friend referred you to it. Perhaps you stumbled onto it by pure dumb luck.
But, however you got here, you have arrived at what is, without question, the most valuable website on the entire Internet!
Here's why: Back in September of 1986, I began publishing a newsletter cleverly called The Gary Halbert Letter
. The subscription price was $195.00 per year and, with very little promotion, I soon had readers in more than 50 countries. Then, I started offering a Lifetime Subscription for $2,855.00.
And, guess what? It wasn't long until nearly all my subscribers were Lifetime Subscribers!
Since I began writing this newsletter, I have received thousands upon thousands of letters from people telling me how my newsletters have helped them make millions (sometimes tens of millions) of dollars, saved their health (and, in some cases, literally saved their lives), kept their marriages intact... and... in various other ways... improved their lives immensely.
So, I got to thinking, "Well, hell... if what I write helps people this much, it should be available to everyone... even if... they can't afford to subscribe to my newsletter." Therefore, I've put all my newsletters (with some very sparse editing) right here on this website... for... everyone in the world... to read...
Absolutely Free!
Just click below where it says "Newsletter Menu"... then... you'll be taken to a page where you'll see a forest of envelope icons with "Headlines" on them.
Each envelope contains one issue of my newsletter. And, as you'll soon see, the subject of each individual newsletter is identified on the front of the envelope. If…
It's 100% free. There's nothing you have to buy... and... on this website...
You Will NEVER See
A Scum-Sucking Pop-Up Ad
Or
A Scum-Sucking Banner Ad!
Please excuse my "French"... but... I hate those damn things.
