		<description>@Traci - Thank you! Let me try to answer your questions before I go hop in the shower...

1. I think you&#039;re asking about business structure. I currently have an LLC that files as an S-Corp. I am not a sole proprietorship.

The LLC gives me some tax advantages, as well as some liability protection, which I&#039;ve never needed, but does provide some peace of mind.

2. My suggestion: write a long copy sales letter selling... YOU! This letter *IS* a sample.

After you&#039;re done writing the letter, code it in HTML and FTP it to your web site.

If I&#039;m speaking a foreign language, you can refer back to my ebook. I give some resources for how to get your letter onto a web site.

You can also hire somebody to do it for you. (If you need a web guy, call up my brother Jared - www.JaredHealy.com)

@Nancy - Thank you for the positive feedback! I&#039;m glad they&#039;ve helped you so much. :-)</description>

		<description>I love the videos and  have already started implementing things into my copywriting efforts. After reading your ebook and now with the videos, I really feel like I&#039;ve gotten the push/boost I need to be successful. 

Two questions:

1. Are you a business, or do your clients make out checks to your personal name? 

2. I have writing samples, but I don&#039;t have any internet sales letter samples. John suggested to someone else to create a mock-up to use in this case. Would I create my letter in Word, create a static site to direct potentials clients to the url, or create it a different way?

Thanks!</description>

		<description>@Jeremy - Thank you! And thank you for your question.

While testimonials are important, the quality of the testimonial shouldn&#039;t make or break your promotion.

Your list and offer are more important than your testimonials.

That said, I edit my testimonials to make them as strong as possible. If somebody writes a novel, I look for the one paragraph that really sings.

And I also try to feature &quot;result testimonials&quot; versus &quot;feel good testimonials.&quot;

So I understand your concern.

There are many things you can do to build up your expert status: blogging, teaching, featuring seals of the organizations you belong to, publishing press releases, etc.

On one of my blogs, my article got referenced on MSN. So I can now say, &quot;Featured on MSN,&quot; which is a huge credibility booster.

Hope this gives you some ideas.
