Get ready to learn about the power of direct response copywriting from one of the masters of the craft, Scott Martin, founder of Scott Martin Copywriting. He joins me on today's Go For Launch podcast.
Scott has been a professional copywriter for his entire career. He was born in America, spent his formative years in England, then moved back to America where he lived in Charlotte, North Carolina for 27 years. He now lives in Aspen, Colorado.
He has taken detours into corporate communications, magazine publishing, and writing books but he has always written copy.
Today, he’s a direct response copywriter. His clients include direct marketing giants like Agora, The Motley Fool, and Ryan Deiss’s Digital Marketer. But he also writes for much smaller businesses including a local pub. He has helped this small establishment build an opt-in email database of 2,500 people.
Scott is a member of the Titans marketing group run by former boardroom executive Brian Kurtz.
He conservatively estimates that his copy has generated over $50 million in revenue in the last four years. One of his clients was named the fastest growing business in the Charlotte area by The Charlotte Business Journal.
He’s written 17 books, including a book about Caddyshack, published by Taylor Trade.
Right now, he’s focusing on direct response copy—plus he just launched two websites with resources for direct marketers and direct response copywriters.
