on the Elmer thing.... :)
That was pretty good!
You really do share GREAT information.... What I've discovered is that it really pays to pay a lot of attention to what you say.... :)

Actually.... I have experimented with a type of "embedded command" sometimes when I post a message here at Sowpub.... You should always be experimenting when you post a message, that's my view....
You can learn a lot.... :)

You're right!
That's an excellent technique.... :)

Gordon, I'll be paying more attention to them.... I did go through a stage when I was taping some of the 30 minute infomercials late at night here in Australia. Mainly the ones by Kevin Trudeau, to understand his techniques (they clearly work, because they were repeated over and over.....)
But then he got in trouble here (for false claims -- same as in the US, I think, he claimed that everyone has a photographic memory, but he couldn't prove this claim).... and the ads have now disappeared here....
But I haven't paid too much attention to the short direct response ads.... Thanks for taking the time to post a message on your suggestions, I'll check them out too. :)

Hehehe.... :)
I'm looking forward to the results of your joint venture with Rick Smith, I think it will be great!
