About this eBook Words are your sharpest weapon, the strongest defense and the most powerful ally that you have. Our free eBook, Swipe Files for the Lazy Copywriter offers you 20 modules (chapters) with over 2,000 swipes of powerful, persuasive words and phrases to use in sales letters, blog posts, ads, articles, etc. What are swipe files? When picky copywriters struggle to write their words, it feels like psychological torture to finish a writing project for a client. Creativity and enthusiasm refuse to ignite when we need it most, and so we wrestle with our mental thoughts to write that clever headline to make the rest of the sales copy fall into place. Many copywriters, when experiencing writer's block, cheat their way to writing persuasive sales copy. How do they do it? They use a simple tool called a "swipe file." A "swipe file" is a collection of headlines, ads, post scripts, brochures, SEO phrases, and guarantees taken from your existing work or lifted off the web. It consists of all the superb copy that you've written yourself or you wish you'd written yourself over time. Each chapter in our free eBook contains more than 100 swipes that you can use. You can choose from a large selection of creatively-worded swipes to eradicate your writer's block and assist you in choosing the best words to write persuasive sales copy for you or for your clients. Enjoy!
