If you want to make a quick boost in the results your copy brings home, take a look at some of the better books on the subject of copywriting, and marketing in general. Some of the very best learning you can do about writing copy comes from inexpensive books on the subject - and even books off the subject. Great writers improve their writing by reading books. This is a great way to improve your skills in the copywriting field, too. Today, I'll offer you a few suggestions for books that will quickly boost your copywriting results. Three of these books are about copywriting. A fourth book is off-topic, but still valuable for learning. First, I would recommend Robert Collier's wonderful tome, The Robert Collier Letter Book. Collier himself wrote many of the ads featured in his book, a classic in the copywriting and marketing field. The language is old-fashioned, even quaint, but the basic principles are powerful. John E. Kennedy's Reason Why Advertising is a fantastic book. It is harder to find than the others. At the end of this article, I will provide you with resources to find books like this. My final choice may raise a few eyebrows, but it's not as silly as it seems. Green Eggs and Ham is not about copywriting, true. But it IS about selling! Enjoy this Dr. Seuss book at any time - with a fox, in a box or with a mouse, in a house. You may be surprised to learn that Green Eggs and Ham can teach you persistence when making your sales. Learn how to come to an agreement with your potential clients so they become paying customers. It may seem silly, but you can learn important marketing lessons from Dr. Seuss. I promised you a valuable resource, and here it is. Check out www.SFSBookstore.com. Bret Ridgeway of Speaker Fulfillment Services runs the site. His specialty is finding hard-to-find books on copywriting and marketing. If you are looking for any similar books, I heartily recommend checking out his site. One of the best investments you can make in your business is information. The books I have recommended will be a valuable addition to any marketing and copywriting library. They won't cost a fortune, and the money you invest will provide you with great returns. They are truly valuable to improve your copywriting skills.
