But it gets worse - because once you get attention, your job has just started.

You see, the real trick is holding onto your reader's attention long enough to get your message across. 

My good friend and world-class copywriter John Carlton says:

"The most common blunder rookie copywriters make is to assume the reader will 'hang in there'... Your reader will not hang in there. At the very moment you bore him, confuse him, or ask him to 'bear with you'...he's out of there."

Think about it: Doesn't your own experience confirm it?
