Actually lives up to the blurb, in my opinion thus far in life. Excellent book.
Atkinson proves he's a good writer by ensuring this book never becomes a slog and never stops teaching, encouraging, and demonstrating. It covers all the bases and examples shown are written by Atkinson and explained step-by-step; they also cover multiple formats. It covers strategy, conceptualizing, execution, polish, and how to sell ideas. Even if you're not aiming to become a copywriter, you can actually improve general writing with the advice in this book.
I'm quite impressed, and feel better merely for having read it. Wish I owned a copy.
6/10. Está bien, pero gran parte del contenido no me pilla de nuevas. Recomendable sobre todo a los que quieran empezar en el copywriting o lleven poco tiempo.
07/07/2015 had only ever dipped into this book before but I read it cover to cover and took notes this time and I'm ready to do my new job now. I kinda winged it until now. Now I think I actually know how to write decent copy.
