Dear Friend,
I didn't want to admit it… but it's in my genes.
Everybody on one side of my family was an alcoholic.
And that always scared me because they say addiction/alcoholism is hereditary.
I thought I got lucky and that gene bypassed me… but I was wrong.
Allow me to elaborate:
I've been an entrepreneur for so long now I don't even really understand how the "sheeple" live.
Sometimes when I'm totally absorbed in a new project, working for hours and days almost non-stop, I often ask myself, "I wonder what the 'normal' people …

Dear Friend,
I'm not sure if you've ever mozied on over to my testimonials page (which I need to update)… but the very first testimonial is from none other than the "Prince of Print"… the late, great Gary Halbert.
He said…
“I lived with Dan for 43 days when he had an apartment in Costa Rica. He’s a good professional copywriter and he learned some things in Costa Rica that hardly any other copywriter knows about. He’s got my seal of approval.”
Actually Gary stayed at my place longer than 43 days. …

Dear Friend,
There's been some weird stuff going on with YouTube tonight.
It looks like they've been doing some upgrades and making changes but it wasn't allowing you to upload videos for a while.
It looks like it's fixed now… so heeeeeeeeeeerrrrrr'es the next video from my YouTube 30-Day Challenge.

Dear Friend,
I'm still having fun and learning a lot with my YouTube 30-Day Challenge.
Today I finally figured out how to use a program called ScreenFlow. I've used it before but I only knew about 10% of its functions.

Enjoy the video!
All the best,

Why I HATE Ben Settle
Here's a screen shot from my Aweber account with the results:
Notice that the headline "Why I HATE Ben Settle" got a 37.2% open rate and a 18.8% click-through rate.
The headline "Ben Settle SUCKS" got a higher …
