As a professional copywriter I will tell you that this is an excellent book and you would be well advised to have it at hand every time you write anything that is important to you --- especially sales letters and advertising material.

It saves you time, stress and heartache. While not the most original phrases you'll hever hear, it's a great source of inspiration.

I have used the previous book "Words that Sell" as one of my secret copywriting tools for years.

This is the perfect companion. I can't imagine anyone who writes not finding this a gold mine of idea starters.

The reason why this book is good is that it becomes the basis of the book you should write yourself. What I did is start with this and then add my own phrases and words as I went along in my job. The book I have now is about 50% my own terminology. Don't fall for the negative reviews - if you want to reinvent the wheel then go ahead. But take it from me, as a starting point, this book IS worth it.

This book and it's now out-of-print companion, Words that Sell, are a must for anyone who writes corporate sales education. The information is logically arranged and easy to access. As the book would say, it simplifies your life and makes your job easier - kiss your hassles goodbye!

This book is a great copy-writing resource because it provides a comprehensive thesaurus of phrases that fits various client objectives.

A copy-writers lifesaver!

This book is a great asset and reference for students in my role as an educator / lecturer in marketing

This book was recommended by another author as one to have on the bookshelf. Easy to browse through, the "solid gold" phrases to choose from are categorized by topics. I've used it multiple times when writing articles for the Internet and when writing just to make my point known.

I pass on the recommendation to anyone else who may be considering writing for promotional purposes.
