Do You Like Phil Collins?

 

“Do you like Phil Collins?” ~ Patrick Bateman (American Psycho)

 

Dear subscriber,

 

I’m not ashamed to admit, I’m a big Phil Collins fan.

People don’t realize how ridiculously talented this guy is.

When it comes to sheer musical talent, Phil Collins is painting with a full set of oils while everyone else is busy doodling with crayons.

Now, many of you music fans probably know that Phil Collins replaced Peter Gabriel as Genesis’s lead singer.

Well, Collins becoming Genesis’s lead singer was like the GFC – nobody saw it coming.

Here’s the story:

In 1975, Genesis was having in-house trouble. After months of heated argufy, Peter Gabriel took his 8-ball and went home.

Not wanting to kill off the band, the remaining members quickly started looking for a new lead singer.

Oh, by the way, dear subscriber, this little-known story contains a doozy of a lesson. I will reveal that lesson on the B side, okay?

Now, below is a transcript from a Phil Collins interview in 1977. It is Phil dishing on those Genesis audition singers.

Check it out:

Phil: So, we put an ad in the paper, Genesis – tight group – want singer. We got about 400 replies with tapes and records of people singing along to our records. We sifted them all out and got down to a shortlist of 30 singers.

Journo: Did anyone come close?

Phil: Not really. Actually, it was quite depressing. We’d be rehearsing for about six weeks or something like that, and every Monday we’d have about five or six singers to rehearse. They’d come down to the studio, I would teach them the songs and vocals. They’d sing, we would say ‘thank you, we’ll keep you in mind’, you know? We got one guy who we thought could cut it, but when it came to recording, it just didn’t work. Long story short, the band sat down and said, ‘Ya know, Phil, we were pretty impressed with your singing when you were helping those singers, why don’t you become our singer?!?’

And the rest is history.

The moral of the story?

Often, waaaay more often than you’d expect, the answer to your problem is…

… Right Under Your Schnoz!

We are too quick to look for outside resources without even looking at the assets we’re sitting on.

It’s just human nature.

Chances are, you already possess the knowledge, know the person, or have the resources; you’re just not seeing it!

And if you’re a businessperson, an online marketer, a copywriter, or a salesperson reading this on your phone, sometimes the solution to your problem is right under your nose – literally!

Hey, Kelvin, do you have any copywriting products?

Aha…I thought you’d never ask.

I sure do.

However, they are very expensive, and if you’ve just stumbled onto my website and don’t know me from a can of paint, you’d be nuts to buy any of my products. After all, I could be a complete copywriting novice dressed up in guru clothing. Hell, the internet has no shortage of those.

Listen: I believe you should put someone’s content to the test before shelling out your hard earned. Know this: I want to help you drag in more sales for your business before you even think about giving me a single penny. 

And that, dear website visitor, is why all my new subscribers get the following two perks:

Look, I could wax lyrical about email copy all day long, but let me get straight to the point:

Email and sales go together like drunk and disorderly, and…I want to prove to you how easy it is to write emails people love to read and buy from. The notion that you need to be well versed in direct response marketing and be a certified copywriting pro is just beautiful nonsense. Not saying that won’t help… of course it’d help.
