Apryl Parcher (American copywriter)
I’ve certainly enjoyed them. Your helpful hints are just plain good sense—much like your recent interview with Clayton Makepeace—and I love your delivery style. Fish ‘n Chips with a dash of vinegar. Refreshing.
Brian Payne
Please keep them coming… I don’t hear from you enough Drayton!

Your ideas are working as a great checklist for my team”. When are you going to publish the book – ‘The Definitive Checklist for World Class Direct Marketing?
Gustavo Picchio
Thank you so much, Drayton. Thanks for your comprehensive knowledge and brilliance. And also for your generosity.
Ian Hitt - Sales Director Idente
Most strange as I'm opening them each day and also filing them in a very special "Drayton Bird" folder within Outlook.
Jack G. Ellis Carson City, NV

Thought I'd just drop a thank you for the 'helpful idea' series so far. Great stuff.
Marcus Magee - Regional Marketing Director & Global Head of Marketing Training
Despite there being a plethora of sources to refer to on effective copywriting, we find Drayton’s top tips invaluable - highly relevant with excellent real life examples to give them context. Having already tried a number of them, I can truly say they’re one of the valuable emails in my inbox! I regularly refer to them when preparing and conducting training and coaching with my global team.
Paul Magee

Robert Joseph - Wine Travel Guide to the World
First, can I say how much I am enjoying your helpful hints - and fascinatedly comparing them with some of Seth Godin's ideas.
Tim Leaman, Managing Director, Remarkable Design Ltd
Just a quick thank you for the emails. I have really enjoyed reading them and really liked the regularity of them which I have no doubt helped some of the tips to sink in.
Alastair Walker
I've been enjoying your excellent helpful tips over the last three weeks - a refreshing change to some of the e-zines and newsletters I'm inclined to receive in my line of work.
Ale
As usual all good stuff. I think I almost salivate in anticipation of reading your tips... don't get me started on the video you sent!
Andrew Fortey - Managing Director
I enjoy receiving your 'Helpful Ideas' which I've always found thought provoking and profitable.
Andrew Wones
…certainly very useful and refreshing! I like it, and always have, because its feet are on the ground and its head isn't in the clouds or disappearing anywhere far worse - unlike a lot of stuff one hears & sees about marketing and creativity.
Anna Lee – institutional investor
Please don't stop these! Its the only news email in my inbox I stop to actually read and have encouraged all my staff to sign up for it. Fantastic email series. Please don't stop.
Anon
Interestingly the effect of reading them one after the other is warmer than day by day. No doubt ‘Bird Droppings’ is as entertaining as your seminars I have personally attended.
Anthony Reed
“And thanks! For the pdf and helpful ideas. The first 2 have been worth the "subscription" alone.
Barbara Hinkley Channel Manager PSIS Ltd
Thank you for sending through all your helpful ideas, they have been great and I have read every one. I'm afraid I can't remember which of your Helpful Ideas in particular were most helpful, but I can say that in every one there was at least one point when I said "that is so right" or "shame our agency didn't understand that basic concept. I love that fact that you are very no nonsense in your approach, as marketing is really just common sense and hard graft. Nothing magic or even glamorous.
Barry Roback - Chief Executive - The JSA Group of Companies
Hi, Thanks for your informative emails – I am really enjoying them.
Belinda Neal - Managing Director - Crazy Horse Brand Response Limited
Am loving your helpful ideas
Ben Thompson – copywriter - fst Marketing
As a copywriter who works with account managers who love to try to second guess our clients, I was delighted to read your 'Why guess when you can know?' article. I even put the line under the nose of my company director - to ram my point home. Thanks for putting it in such a way that I could broach the subject with the boss. As opposed to just have a giggle with the rest of the studio.
Bill Heikkila
I am enjoying your messages greatly, and there is no note of incompetence in the content (OK, one small slip-up when that photo was reversed) - quite well done, in my opinion.
