Better business results from your writing . . .

Open copywriting courses

As well as running in-house copywriting training courses, we're now offering you the chance to benefit from the same content but on an open course.

We call the workshop, Write to Sell: Power Copywriting that Makes the Sale.

Explode your results

In just one day, we give you enough tips, tricks and techniques to explode the results you get from your copy.

Between us, we have 45 years’ experience writing copy for everything from ads and newsletters to websites, mailshots and emails. Book your place now.

On the day, you learn how to:

1. Focus on your reader so they do what you want

2. Create powerful plans that save you time and effort

3. Write compelling headlines that make people want to read on

4. Grab – and hold – your reader’s attention from start to finish

5. Use insider tricks to create reader rapport

6. Use punctuation power to tune up your copy

7. Avoid common mistakes that torpedo your selling power

8. Edit and check your work so it’s error-free

9. Get better results from every piece of copy you write

The day is split pretty evenly between interactive learning sessions and practical exercises. We end with a competitive team game where you put all you’ve learnt into effect.

With attendance limited to just 16 people you can be sure you’ll have all your questions answered.
