In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I sit down with my head copywriter Heath… Who’s been quietly writing behind the curtain for the past five years.  And let me tell you… it was a blast to talk copy, creativity, and what actually makes great marketing work with one of the most talented people on my team! We go deep on advertorials (what they are, why they work, and how they’re still crushing it today), plus Heath shares how improv, fiction writing, and a background in comedy helped him become one of the best direct response copywriters I’ve ever met.We also talk about nerding out on old ad copy, why I collect hundred-year-old Napoleon Hill manuscripts, and how lived experience always beats AI when it comes to great copy that connects. This one’s part masterclass, part origin story, and part love letter to the lost art of persuasion. And… 100% fun! Key Highlights: The surprising way I accidentally hired Heath (and why his 40-minute “No thanks” video sealed the deal) What an “advertorial” actually is - and why it works better than you think Why copywriting is really just “copy collecting” The lost power of voice, tone, and writing from lived experience How AI can help, but will never replace the hook you found at the gym yesterday Our step-by-step process for building the Zuma Juice funnel from scratch Why copywriting is the most valuable skill most entrepreneurs never master If you’re a copywriter, a funnel builder, or just someone trying to sell better… This episode is a can’t miss for you!https://sellingonline.com/podcasthttps://clickfunnels.com/podcasthttps://30days.comSpecial thanks to our sponsors: NordVPN: EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal https://nordvpn.com/secrets Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!

Taylor has built and scaled multiple businesses, and in our conversation, we go deep into some of the unconventional strategies that have fueled his success!Taylor shares what he calls the Revolving Pricing Method, a pricing strategy that breaks away from the typical high-ticket model by combining an upfront onboarding fee with ongoing monthly payments - ensuring profitability while increasing client retention. If you've ever struggled with recurring revenue, this concept will change how you structure your offers.We also discuss why traditional book funnels are broken and how Taylor is leveraging pamphlets… I.E. small, hyper-specific digital products that quickly establish authority, create desire, and seamlessly lead to high-value offers.
