One was from someone very active on\u00a0the Warrior Forum (over 2,000 posts). The other, Pete Godfrey &#8212;\u00a0one of Australia&#8217;s top copywriting and marketing minds, who commands $30k for a spot in his private coaching group.<\/p>\n<p>Warrior Forum guy&#8217;s comment?<\/p>\n<p>A snarky &#8220;this wasn&#8217;t worth $97&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And Pete?<\/p>\n<p>A note saying how much he enjoyed that issue.<\/p>\n<p>The former haunts the Warrior Forum, complains about the info\u00a0(without even implementing), and (gasp!) cancelled within a couple\u00a0weeks. The latter is a world famous and widely respected copywriter,\u00a0marketing strategist, speaker, and author who&#8217;s been subscribed to &#8220;Email Players&#8221; for 3 straight years.<\/p>\n<p>One guy snarks, doesn&#8217;t implement, and quits.<\/p>\n<p>The other implements, profits, and keeps using the info.<\/p>\n<p>&#8217;nuff said.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll leave you with this:<\/p>\n<p>As you can see, my &#8220;Email Players&#8221; newsletter ain&#8217;t for the\u00a0opportunity-minded.
