That's pretty powerful stuff, eh?
Moving on to the second letter opening Collier found to be magical.
Here are a few examples:
========================================================
With your permission, I am going to send you FREE a new, self-filling
black beauty fountain pen-pencil, with your name stamped upon it
in 24 carat solid gold leaf." ========================================================
Or...
=======================================================
With your permission I am going to make an analysis of the soil
of your lawn to
determine -- at my own risk and expense -- what elements are lacking
in it, what
you need for stronger, healthier, more closely grown turf." =======================================================
These openings were used over and over again by Collier because
they worked. And they still work just as well today -- here's how
a recent mailing from Rodale press started (mind you this is the
control for the last 3 years -- not an easy task when you mail millions):
