New Year's Change?

As the holiday season starts to come to a close the expectation of a prosperous new year typically appear in our minds. This particular New Year seems to hold exceptional high thoughts of change and prosperity. Although I’m not going to dwell on the bad and negative circumstances surrounding our country and the world-at-large I am going to acknowledge that “change is good” and it’s sorely needed right now. However, the prospects of change for the better this New Year won’t come easy and it doesn't rest upon the shoulders of one particular individual or entity…it lies within all our own efforts.

Now as the thoughts of change swirl around us we come to a time where we ideally start to plan out our new year’s strategy with our beloved…New Years Resolutions. As grand as resolutions may seem when we first start to think of them they’re often fleeting from us as quickly as they came into our minds.

Have you ever noticed as we contemplate our well intentioned resolutions for some strange reason within days or weeks later they just…vanish into mindless past? Like so many other well meaning plans and ideas they just seem to end up on the “junk heap” pile of forgotten dreams. If we could look into our minds and past good intentions we’d see a scrap yard filled with the relics of these thoughts.

Why is it that we lose sight of our good intentions? Why do so many good New Years resolutions never seem to pan out? There are answers, but there are no easy solutions. In order to make your New Years goals manifest into reality there are a host of ingredients that we need to add to the mix. Unfortunately in our everyday lives of work, family, and an ever increasing range of commitments we fail to act and lose sight. Lost sight of what we really want!

So my first and most important question for you this New Year is; What Do You REALLY Want? I mean what do your really want with all your heart and all your mind? What do you crave in the bottom pit of your gut so bad it screams “Please…Let me out!” What makes your creative juices soar like the proud eagle that soars effortlessly over the western mountain skies? Don’t be shy here this is your time, your life, your Year!

Consider that you’ll only get one shot at this…and this is it! Now with that thought in mind write your heart felt dream down. Write it down again…And, again until you can focus on what you really want. Do it now!

If you’re like me and your heart’s desire lies within the topics of this blog then Copywriting and/or being an Entrepreneur is the “pile driving” goal that has been beckoning you to come here. This desire may have been tugging at you for a while now or maybe it just materialized it’s self in thought recently. What ever the case may be…it’s here, it’s now, it’s time! Now is the time to run with your goal in hand and make it a reality.

So now you ask me; where do we start…or how? My answer is, focus! That’s right we’re going to focus. Focus on our goal to becoming a great Copywriter or Internet Entrepreneur. And, were going to do it right here! In my next blog post I’m going to talk about the process of focusing and tell you about a great software program I’ve used that help’s me stay focused on all my projects.

Until then focus on this…

Life is like a dog-sled team.
If you’re not the lead dog…the scenery never changes!

Best Wishes for all of you for the New Year!

Welcome...Everything has a new beginning

This blog gives information about becoming a successful Web Copywriter. Here you'll find current and cutting edge topics about Copywriting for the Internet as well as related Internet Entrepreneur articles.

Welcome to the first post of Hot Off The Press - Blog. It's a pleasure to spend some time with you today. Sit back, relax, and let your mind open up to new realms of possibilities.

In Web Copywriting 2.0 the Internet is always evolving...changing in new ways. Some for the better and some perhaps not. But, changes as they are nothing can stop them. The world and Internet still grows and changes around us everyday.

Because of this constant evolution of the Internet, Web Copywriter's must relentlessly hone their craft. We need to be continually on the leading edge of new marketing trends, writing concepts, training resources, and sales conversion tactics. It's a large undertaking but, the rewards as a "well feed" copywriter are well worth it.

My goal here at Web Copywriter 2.0 is to share with you some "leading edge" information that I've gleaned along the path of becoming a Web Copywriter. Like you I know about the time, money, effort, and struggle to succeed in this career of Copywriting. And, sometimes it seems like a daunting task. But, just when you're ready to thrown in the towel something or someone shows up and like a "breath of fresh air" turns it all around and you begin to see a glimmer of hope! Has this ever happened to you?

Well, my friend...my goal is to be that hope. My hope is that you gain all the knowledge you need to avoid the mistakes, I and others like me, have made before you. And, my goal is to make sure your journey is a lot less bumpy than the one I traveled on. I hope you share in these same goals and aspirations because the journey begins NOW!

Inside Info You'll Find Nowhere Else!

If you've been to my home website and reviewed the Resources page you should have read my first web copywriting recommendation, Web Copywriting University.

(You can view this page at - www.MarcoCopy.com/Resources.html )

Web Copywriting University is authored by Maria Veloso who is a well known and seasoned web copywriting pro. In 2005 she published through AMACOM her debut book entitled "Web Copy That Sells". This outstanding definitive guide to writing web copy was acclaimed by some of the most notorious web gurus of our time. Master Web Gurus like Mark Joyner, Joel Christopher, Kevin Wilke, Alex Mandossian and more wrote rave revues for the untold truths about "Web Copy That Sells".

It has been my pleasure and experience to not only read this superbly written book but, I've also studied her Web Copywriting Mastery Course as well. Both of these resource are way beyond "cutting edge." They are the place to start if your new to Web Copy and the place be right now if your not. All of her inside knowledge and training is imperative for the foundation of your Web Copywriting skills. Without it you'll "be like a ship without a rudder."

Does it get better?

Just when you thought I poured out the best of the best I have some "Breaking News!" Maria has just told me (12/05/08) that she is in the process of putting the finishing touches on a new edition of "Web Copy That Sells" Her second edition will be an expanded version and will be released in March 2009. Plus! The Web Copywriting Mastery Course will be coming out with a new version this spring as well. This new course will be an enhanced home-study program with a Video component, CD audio, and course manual. Wow!
