It’s My Birthday! And I Have a Surprise For You. (Hint: It’s Brandgastic.)

There are only a few days each year worth getting excited about: Christmas (because, hello, egg nog), the 4th of July (because I happen to look fantastic in red), and birthdays. 

Specifically my birthday, because other people’s birthdays always involve at least one token blonde girl wearing a flimsy metallic tiara, shouting the wrong lyrics to 50 Cent’s “It’s Your Birthday,” and spilling at least three gulpfuls of her disgusting Sex on the Beach drink on my white blazer.

My birthdays, on the other hand, involve steak. Enough said.

Which, really is a very round about way of telling you that today is my birthday (at 9:55am EST, to be precise) and tonight I’ll be:

-

a) Eating steak. My mom used to say A1 sauce was a sin and only for people who didn’t know how to cook, so HOPEFULLY WHOEVER COOKS MY STEAK DOESN’T FORCE ME INTO A DIFFICULT MORAL CONUNDRUM.

b) Getting roped into singing karaoke to 50 Cent’s “It’s Your Birthday” because that’s just the way that life works isn’t it? With my luck, IT’S EXACTLY WHAT WILL END UP HAPPENING.

–

So yes. Here we are on June 24th, and it’s my birthday–again. (You flighty Gregorian calendar, you.)

And in the spirit of my birthday, we decided to do something slightly unexpected.

-

We decided to bring back our famed class, Brandgasm 101, especially for the occasion – and in the new form of an exclusive DIY self study.

-

(This is where someone inserts mobster smoking a cigar, nodding his head with approval.)

 Brandgasm 101 was the sold-out online workshop I gave earlier this year in conjunction with Shatterboxx design studio on how to DIY hack your own copy & design.

It’s for small business owners, bloggers, writers, and aspiring online anyones who want their website and their marketing materials to look and sound professional – and actually SELL.

Because in order to do that? You can’t just play the part–you’ve got to look and sound the part, too.

-

If you want to learn how to:

• Easily (and foolproofly) make your PDFs look professional (not to mention jawdropping)
• Make fancy custom “buy now” buttons and badges that beg to be clicked
• Design your own swanky Twitter background (easier than you think!)
• Create blog headers & banners that make you look like an authority–then you need this.

-

If you want to learn how to:

• Write teaser copy that tempts
• Taglines that enchant
• Sales pages that sell
• Headlines that get read
• Social media profiles that get clicked
• About Pages & Homepages that get opt-ins
• And how to make your copy–no matter what type–compel–then you need this.

-

And if you want to go from amateur hour to pro–without spending $5,000+ on a designer and copywriter?

Then you need this.

-

In honor of my birthday, we’re offering this up to you just Monday and Tuesday, at a special birthday rate of $149.

The original live Brandgasm course ranged from $199 to $499, and our past students LOVED it.

-

Do you need a birthday Brandgasm?

Sale is only for today and tomorrow, ending Wednesday morning at 9:55am PST. 

Go check it out here, and get it while it’s hot.

Which, of course, is always, but at least today?

It’s not just hot - it’s cheap.

And as I learned when I lived in South Philly, it’s not often those two go together.
