Having done a highly-extensive course on copywriting (Copyhackers, if you cared to know), this book didn't reveal much information I didn't know already. But just because I knew most of the advice Havice shares, it doesn't mean I didn't enjoy it. I learned a lot about review mining, a technique I was familiar with, and how to use it with the other techniques in the book. The author also gives a good ballpark number of responses to search for (somethig I didn't know) and how to organize the responses.
If you are a copywriter, I'd highly recommend you check this book out. At a minimum, you will learn a lot about what's perhaps the most important part of the copywriting process. It's never a bad idea to refresh what you know.
I love this book so much. This book fills the gaps between transforming informations you get from doing market research to effective copy on your site which many copywriting books by bug names out there bever seem to bother. Read this book if you want to stay ahaed of your compettitors....
This is a good primer for customer research. It is just about 120 pages (on Kindle), and you can get a good idea on where to start from and how to use the data you collect. I appreciate the author keeping it simple and short.
