![]() Gary Bencivenga Gary broke into direct marketing working with Hall-of-Fame copywriters John Caples at BBDO and later David Ogilvy at Ogilvy & Mather. At the outset of his career Gary was anything but a whiz copywriter, but through persistence and the tutelage of top copywriters he learnt how to systematically beat even the strongest controls. After his stints with John Caples and David Oglivy, Gary's copywriting was polished by a series of tough-as-sandpaper copy chiefs and razor-sharp clients, including Ted Nicholas and Max Sackheim, who taught him their campaign-tested strategies for beating control packages and space ads. Gary is known for his non-hype style that has literally out-pulled every other copywriter in the business. In head-to-head competition against the best copy talent in America, Gary's winning percentage has remained, over many years, above 80%. (In other words, in actual orders and cash generated, his work has won more than eight out of every ten times he has been tested against other top copywriting talent). For several major mailers, over many years, he has never lost a split-run test against the strongest copywriting competition in America. For most of his career, Gary worked exclusively on a fee-plus-royalty basis (tied to results), and was, for decades, one of the highest-paid copywriters in the world. He is now semi-retired and does not accept any new clients.Now semi-retired, Gary has gathered together the most powerful techniques to use in headlines, offers, formats, copy and design of direct response advertising, from thousands of split-run tests. You'll find the summary of his 38 years of copywriting collection summarized - for free - in in his Bencivenga Bullets. Gary also released 2000 DVDs of the Gary Bencivenga's 7 Master Secrets of Wealth Creation for Marketers and Copywriters to mark his retirement. |

![]() John Carlton "Almost every top marketer you've ever heard of has sought out my advice or tried to hire me..." A naively optimistic protester in the age of Nixon and Vietnam, John Carlton wearied of idealism and hot headed argument, and discovered the power of defusing anger through Dale Carnegie’s “How To Win Friends and Influence People”. John carried his kick ass rebellious streak through stints as newspaper cartoonist,lead guitarist, corporate executive spy and a deep-sea angler. Then he started his career as a freelance copywriter, when there were ZERO teachers available. But John lucked in, scoring work with Jay Abraham around the time he started to offer more structured teaching. In the late 80's he lucked in again, teaming with Gary Halbert to write copy and to co-produce regular seminars when demand for copywriting teachers was on the up. John's irreverent pen has for over 25 years churned out million dollar producing ads for almost every product and service including corporate and entrepreneurial websites, fundraisers, precious metals, diets, self-help products, real estate brokers, financial advice newsletters and exclusive marketing seminars. He ranks with other big names of Direct Response Marketing such as Gary Halbert, Dan Kennedy, Jay Abraham and Ted Nicholas. John lives in Southern California. John professes to getting a buzz from teaching. He occasionally holds a 2-day "License To Steal" seminar that sells out at $5000 a seat and he also sells a three tiered online copywriting package that includes his "Kick-Ass Copywriting Secrets of a Marketing Rebel" and swipe files. His students can get the inside running on ads like the infamous "one-legged golfer" ad that scandalized the staid golf magazines and freaked out pro golfers online (but sold a ton of product for many years). John's Big Damn Blog and his weekly newsletters all ripple his stand-and-deliver, take no prisoners style. |

He also moved away from list-building, and started trying too many new things - all leading to a sagging bottom line. In 2005 he returned to his strengths of email marketing, list building systems, and idea generation and mentoring. As an in-demand Internet marketing mentor Dan provides one-to-one mentoring for selected clients (you must be already making money online) because he loves teaching.
