First, as a heads up, I’m leaving town soon, for a very L-O-O-N-G overdue vacation somewhere out in a nearby ocean where it’s warm, where there are no clients of mine… and actually no computers either.

In fact, chances are outstanding if you DO hear from me; it won’t be on a regular basis. I’ll be bone-fishing, swimming, smoking cigars, drinking champagne, reading and doing a whole lot of nothing next week, and like I said, this has been a long time comin’.

Anyway, it being near the holidays and all, I’ve been making a few observations about things lately.

Have you ever noticed that really young kids tend to want a whole bunch of little things that individually don’t really cost a lot, but can add up to a lot? And not only are their gifts little, but ALL the things they seem to want, break into like, a thousand pieces all over the place?

Who builds this stuff? Do they really think a box of crap that has more plastic pieces in it than a table-top jigsaw puzzle is a smart gift for young kids?

I mean, what’s up with that?

And then, as the kids get older — to be teens and pre-teens, they still want “small-sized” gifts, but now they cost more. Video games, video game players, ipods, TV’s, all that jazz.

So not only are the kids causing you more headaches, but now you (literally) have to pay more for this privilege. This also doesn’t seem fair, does it?

And of course, if you keep your eyes opened — you know that we as adults usually get bigger-sized gifts, and even more expensive gifts. Maybe some new tools for yourself, or furniture for the house, a bedroom set, whatever.

The point is, why do we always want more? I’m not saying this is bad or anything, because frankly I don’t know if it is, but… it’s very intriguing, isn’t it? Because we want more not just in “toys” or books, or cigars, or whatever floats your boat, but we also always want more success, more money, and more business.

More more more!

Is quantity our measuring stick? I’m going to try and do some research on this one and let you know what I come up with.

Meanwhile, in this month’s OFFLINE Seductive Selling Newsletter, along these SAME lines, I’m going to show you why it really IS good to be the king, right there on the cover on page one.

Now go sell something, Craig Garber

P.S. Get your hands on the very BEST present you can give yourself this year — The Seductive Selling System – http://www.kingofcopy.com/seductive — Here’s what Cris Chico from Hollywood Florida has to say about it: “I have a few copywriting courses and they just simply gather dust on my bookshelf (I have three of them right now just like that). One of them from a well known copywriter has 12 dvds and 4 huge workbooks…. Who has the time to sit and go thru all that stuff. I need fast and simple information that I can use to write better copy and sales messages to make my phone ring TODAY!!! That is why I found your Seductive Selling System so much easier and valuable than the big huge copywriting courses out there for sale. Just the main manual alone gave me a ton of ideas for USP’s and sales copy for my letters and postcards. I have not even gotten thru the rest of the stuff and so far the money has been well spent. Bottom line is that if you are looking to invigorate your copy and sales message to get more customers WITHOUT having to go thru thousands of pages and days worth of dvd’s then then Seductive Selling is a MUST HAVE course. Thanks, Craig”
