Remember Mongo in <em>Blazing Saddles?<\/em> Well, Scott is a champion powerlifter so the nickname DOES kinda fit him.<\/p>\n<p>Anyhoo&#8230; there&#8217;s an interesting story about how Scott got Gary&#8217;s attention.<\/p>\n<p>Gary used to recommend rewriting successful sales letters by hand to ingrain the process of writing killer copy into your brain.<\/p>\n<p>So here&#8217;s what Scott did:<\/p>\n<p>He studied the entire Halbert book, <em>How To Make Maximum Money In Minimum Time<\/em>, and re-wrote the whole book ENTIRELY by hand.<\/p>\n<p>Scott then sent his handwritten copy of the book to Gary along with a personal letter.<\/p>\n<p>THAT got Halbert&#8217;s attention&#8230; big time!<\/p>\n<p>Gary invited Scott to come to Miami to train under him&#8230; and Scott hasn&#8217;t looked back since. He has become one of the most &#8220;under the radar&#8221; in demand freelancers out there.<\/p>\n<p>Scott is one of those guys I can always count on to help me solve my toughest marketing and copywriting problems. I never miss an opportunity to pick his brain.<\/p>\n<p>A few years ago, Scott developed an A-to-Z copywriting course that Gary Halbert said was one of the best courses on writing copy he had ever seen in his 40+ year career.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, Scott&#8217;s copywriting course was the first information product EVER to receive the &#8220;Gary Halbert Seal of Approval.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I couldn&#8217;t get my credit card out fast enough to buy a copy.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, Scott took the course off the market a few years ago. See, he&#8217;s just too busy writing for clients to deal with running an info business. He doesn&#8217;t want to get distracted from his main focus&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Making MILLIONS of Dollars For His Clients!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m pretty much a junkie when it comes to buying copywriting courses&#8230; but there are only a HANDFUL I can wholeheartedly put my personal &#8220;Doberman Dan&#8221; endorsement on.<\/p>\n<p>Scott Haines&#8217; course is one of those precious few.<\/p>\n<p>So a few months ago I literally BEGGED him to either bring it back on the market or let me buy the rights to it.<\/p>\n<p>He refused both. He was just too buried under copywriting work to deal with it.<\/p>\n<p>But I&#8217;m one persistent S.O.B.<\/p>\n<p>I think he finally agreed to do a deal with me just to shut me up. (With my incessant phone calls and e-mails, I&#8217;m worse than a psycho ex-girlfriend when I really want something!)<\/p>\n<p>Even though this course is officially out-of-print, as a favor to me, Scott has agreed to let me offer it to my subscribers.<\/p>\n<p>You can now get your hands on Scott&#8217;s course, <em>Shortcut Copywriting Secrets<\/em>&#8230; but only for the next 14 days.<\/p>\n<p>And thanks to my &#8220;psycho ex-girlfriend&#8221; harassment, you&#8217;re going to get&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>$200.00 Off The Regular Price!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So instead of the normal $797&#8230; you get <em>Shortcut Copywriting Secrets<\/em> for only $597.<\/p>\n<p>Look, there are PLENTY of copywriting courses I could sell that would pay me a MUCH higher affiliate commission&#8230; but I can&#8217;t sell something I don&#8217;t personally believe in.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>Shortcut Copywriting Secrets<\/em> is without a doubt one of the best copywriting courses I&#8217;ve ever purchased.
