1.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't follow his own advice, 14 Jun 2004
By A Customer
I was very dissapointed with this book. Nick goes on about understanding your audience, but his book is far too wordy and obtuse. I wanted real examples of good and bad online copy and the reasons behind Nick's views. You have to wade through bumph on allowing copywriters to do "great work" which is totally irelavent to finding out what makes good copy. Extracting the few nuggets of advice is a painful excercise. Not recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars "Revealed! Secrets of writing On-line copy that sells...", 24 Jul 2003
By A Customer
Ever wanted to learn the differences between Direct marketing and e-marketing? Well, this book covers it all!

An invaluable guide to achieving subtlety and a sense of amity in e-mails, web sites and e-newsletters. And what a relief to find it written in a manner that makes for easy reading! If you are interested in the subject, the book avoids flooding that interest out of you in a slurry of data...

I did feel a little more detail could have been provided in a couple of the chapters, before remembering that this is a book about how you WRITE on-line, rather than how you GET words on-line. If you're tasked with writing copy, on-line, now... this is an ideal introduction to both the art and science

Actually, it may well deserve that fifth star.
