Over the years, I have developed a unique approach to copywriting that I call 'The Wizard of Oz' technique.

This methodology draws its inspiration from a simple, repetitive lyric - 'Because, because, because' - from the song 'Off to See the Wizard' in the classic film, 'The Wizard of Oz.'

What does this have to do with copywriting?

Well, the song's repetition underscores a powerful principle I apply to my work.

You see...

It’s not enough to tell potential customers that a product or service is excellent; we must consistently articulate why it's excellent and do so in a thorough and persuasive manner.

Just like the song, I firmly believe in providing reason after reason, each reinforcing the last and building a robust case for the purchase.

So, when I'm writing about a product, I don't just say, 'This laptop is the best on the market.' I expound on it, like: 'I assure you this laptop is the best on the market because it features a state-of-the-art processor that lets you multitask efficiently. It is because its superior battery life enables you to work longer. And it's because its robust and sleek design marries style and durability.'

By following my 'Wizard of Oz' approach, you will ensure to your reader a complete and thorough understanding of why your product or service is the best choice.

But don't take my word for it, my coaching students, who have paid thousands of dollars for my one-on-one coaching rave about my time-proven formulas.

Here's what A-list copywriter Vitali G says...

I have a special term for this rare kind of copywriting knowledge: "Pure Gold". I mean, where else can you shorten your copywriting learning curve by years (maybe even decades), by tapping into Doug D'Anna's 30-plus years of control-writing experience? To my knowledge, nowhere else.
Veteran financial copywriter Kevin D. would agree…
“Doug’s secrets will revolutionize your copy skills. They will make your confidence and income soar while you shatter the 6-figure barrier, and take your place within the small group of the A-list copywriters.”
D. McCray would tell you the same thing
"I have studied over a dozen copywriting courses and Doug D'Anna is the one and only copywriter who has shown me how to make sense out of this subject. He goes over the principles and details in-depth. If you want to learn copywriting the real way, Doug D'Anna is the man!! I haven't met anyone who teaches it as he does. He is truly legendary in this field of copywriting."

The "Wizard of Oz" technique forms the foundation of my Million-Dollar Copywriting Formula approach that not only generated $100 million dollars worth of subscriptions to investment newsletters and trading services but also made me millions of dollars in fees and royalties along the way.

Ready to take your copywriting to the next level? Read on!

You'll find five great samples of this approach in my popular home study course: Copywriting Mastery: Insider Secrets to Boost Your Conversions and Revenue

The Naviller Stock Almanac: This control ran for nearly 10 years with small tweaks and updates.
12 Triple Digit-Winners in 12 Months: Another big-time money control that ran for years in various updates.
Turn $5,000 into $40,000, another winning Million Dollar Copywriting Formula promo that I used as an outline for dozens of other money-making emails.
The Conspiracy to Keep You Out of China: A great story-telling control that filled the coffers for the China Strategy newsletter and made me a mint as well.
The Great Retirement Betrayal--my multi-million platinum direct mail package that earned me over $250,000 in royalties.

These aren't just examples. These are proof of the success of my 'Wizard of Oz' approach.

All of which gave the reader dozens of "because because because" reasons to buy but also answered their mental objections to buying as the prospect read down the page.

Let me share a little secret with you.

The 'Wizard of Oz' approach wasn't born in a day. It came to life when I was working on one of the greatest successes in my career, "The Great Retirement Betrayal" for which I was paid over $250,000 in royalties.

It took me six months to write. During that time my mentor Richard Stanton-Jones kept telling me to go back to the well...to explain everything... and that I did not have enough reasons to buy.

That's when my "Wizard of Oz/Because, Because/Because strategy was born.

That's what I cover in this my home study course, Copywriting Mastery: Insider Secrets to Boost Your Conversions and Revenue.

In it...

I'll dive deep into the psychology of persuasion, tap into the science of consumer behavior, and show you how to whip up copy that'll make 'em do a swan dive to the order form.
Plus I'll show you how to crack the code of winning ads, skyrocket your campaigns, and leave your competitors in the dust, wondering what hit 'em.

You might be thinking, 'Will this method work for my niche?'.

Absolutely! The 'Wizard of Oz' approach is versatile and effective across different industries.

That's because you'll learn--perhaps for the first time--how to create an aura of exclusivity and desirability that'll make your copy downright irresistible.

Because you will be explaining everything...and answering every possible objection to buying whatever you are selling.
