    The latest book from Dr. Direct™ will show you how to master online advertising and enhance your social media strategies. This is the perfect companion to the author’s bestselling book Ca$hvertising.   Cashvertising revealed the secrets of ad agencies to the masses. With Cashvertising Online Whitman reveals even more and how to implement his advice in clear-language to increase your bottom line. Most books discussing online ads teach things like: how to create accounts, how to select demographics, what options to select (video vs. carousel vs. slideshow, etc.), and other topics like maximizing the use of Facebook pixels for fine-tuning your target audience. To create successful Facebook, Instagram, Twitter ads, not only do you need to know copywriting basics, but you also need to understand the highly personal nature of the medium. The successful copywriter needs to make the shift to the highly personal “you and me” approach and learn how to sell without expressing the typical appearance of salesmanship. Likewise, a number of books teaching email marketing primarily focus on things like mailing lists, segmentation, funnels, and automation. All important stuff to be sure, but unless your sales copy is persuasive, these things aren’t worth a damn. The majority of these books spend little time teaching readers how to use the power of advertising and consumer psychology in the Facebook and email environments to cause people to actually respond—the whole purpose of advertising! Cashvertising Online is not a book on general copywriting. Instead, it examines the hidden principles specific to actual successful online ads and email promotions and the numerous and potent psychological techniques they employ that make them so persuasive.

But if we’re capable of aspiring to something better and making plans to achieve it, why is it sometimes so hard to reach that next level of success?It all comes back to our minds. Maybe we’re making off-base assumptions we’re not even aware of. Or maybe we’re operating off partial or outdated information. Whatever the issue, to achieve the results we want, we first must look at our thinking. By understanding the latest science about how the brain works, we can leverage it to maximize our performance. Our daily experience, our plans and goals, our actions and reactions are all the product of our thoughts and mindset.Drawing upon the latest insights from the fields of performance psychology, neuroscience, and cognitive science, as well as case studies from clients and their own personal experiences, Michael Hyatt and Megan Hyatt Miller explore the power of ideas to shape superior outcomes, not only in business, but in every aspect of life.
