Every month, I receive emails and calls from DMU subscribers like you who are looking for a big marketing breakthrough for more leads and sales.

They’re looking for that one tactic… that one strategy shift … that will supercharge their sales and profits.

And the secret is simple: advanced direct response techniques.

While many companies know direct response marketing is the most accountable, cost-effective way to advertise, they fall short of their business goals because they don’t follow the foolproof, time-tested rules of great direct response marketing.

Effective direct-response marketing means top-notch copy that will motivate your prospects to act. It also means using direct response art and graphics so your copy does not end up in trash cans and abandoned in online shopping carts.

And it means using direct response experts who know how to help your business grow.

Over the years, I’ve used these techniques to help B2C companies like True Religion Jeans, which grew from a small mom-and-pop clothier to yearly sales of over $!60 million.

I’ve also created award-winning B2B campaigns for companies like The Weather Channel, SurfControl, and The Hollywood Reporter. I can help your business, too.
