Copy Ranger Copywriter

4.9 of 5 (Click Here to Read Rick's 42 Reviews Below)

Chances are, if you’re reading this, you’re looking for a copywriter.

Not just “a” copywriter–you’re looking for a KILLER copywriter… One you can depend on to deliver RESULTS. Not empty promises…

You found him.

Modestly speaking and with candor, Clients and Partners have told me I have “the gift.”

Quick story:

In Spartan times, when neighboring states would plead for military assistance, Leonidas, the King of Sparta, would send one man.

Just… ONE… man.

In his reply, the King would write:

“One riot? One Ranger.”

Copywriting. Marketing strategy. Direct mail. Traffic generation. These are my “weapons of choice” to build your business.

You may ask who my Clients and Partners are and for examples of my work.

Unfortunately, my work with Clients and Partners remains forever private. And assuming we collaborate together, I would afford you the same courtesy.

Unless you come across a Client or Partner and they share, I'll never reveal. I am honor bound. It would compromise their success. I'm sure you are aware of how competitive things are on the Internet.

The relationship means too much to me.

But I *CAN* share I work shoulder-to-shoulder with literally the best in the business.

Here’s what I can do in lieu:

Just give me five minutes of your time on the phone or by Skype. 1-847-217-3039. My Skype ID is “copyranger”. Call me. That’s all I ask. In those first few minutes, I will prove, beyond question, I “have the goods” and I can deliver.

I can promise this:

You will come away from our conversation the far bigger beneficiary. You WILL receive something valuable. Something you can immediately apply in YOUR OWN BUSINESS. And start generating cash flow.

Because that’s my specialty.

It may be a breakthrough strategy… a novel twist on a strategy you’re already deploying… or maybe I’ll even “off the cuff” dictate a sales letter or email for you on the spot.

Yes, I AM that good.

I can dictate winning copy on demand. You just have to hit the record button. I do not waste anyone’s time.

 

Your Secret (Copywriting) Weapon

I can assure: You have discovered a “secret weapon”. One every business owner, every entrepreneur, every Internet marketer, WISHED they had in their back pocket.

To know me, you’ll quickly appreciate I am humble. (Which is another reason I have no need to disclose who my Clients and Partners are.) I am a work horse. I am a soldier. I am ultra-collaborative.

And I love ambitious entrepreneurs with a passion.

And when you bring me aboard? My commitment, loyalty and dedication to you and your business… they will know no bounds. Assuming I have my way, you will succeed. You will profit. You will dominate.

And everything will remain discreet and confidential between us. I appreciate the value of information as the ultimate competitive advantage. (Which is a third reason I do not disclose.)

So if you’re looking for a copywriter who understands the Internet at the most detailed and intimate of levels… if you need someone to spearhead an offline marketing campaign or online product launch… if you need a someone to build out a new information product or ghostwrite a book or flagship special report…

I am your man.

I have worked in dozens of markets, including some of the most rabid and competitive markets imaginable–AND WON. At the same time, I’ve done great work in out of the way, little known niches, where every lead, prospect and customer matters.

As for my fee, when you contact me, we can discuss the most appropriate arrangement. It will probably be fixed price, a percentage of revenue, or a retainer plus a modest percentage. Clients tell me I’m flexible, reasonable and fair. Almost to a fault.

Regardless of what we decide, you can count on me to be generous to your advantage and benefit, not mine.

I hope my intention is clear: I don’t just want to write for you, although I can knock one out of the park.

 

I want to help you build your business.

I want to give you everything I’ve got.

Finding a good copywriter is rare.

But you should know I am every bit as talented in marketing, direct response advertising, Internet traffic generation and conversion. You’ll always get the best of me, no matter what project we are focusing on.

The reason I am asking you to call is simple: I want to get to know you. And I think you should get to know me.

I realize it’s to my detriment I can not share winning sales letters… authority websites… books, manuals and products I have ghostwritten… direct mail pieces… postcards… email autoresponder sequences… video scripts and infomercials… high-ticket proposals and banners. For that, I apologize.

But when we talk, you’ll see.

Although I am unable to share my successes with other Clients, what I can do is contribute to you upfront in the most valuable, direct and profitable of ways.

To show you, to prove to you, beyond doubt, I have “the goods.”

More importantly, I am willing to invest the time to find the right Client. One who’s ambitious. One who wants to grow their business. One who has product or service that has integrity.

By the end of the conversation, we’ll both know if it’s a fit. And then we’ll move forward from there.

 

Time is of the essence


In business, time is always of the essence.
Go ahead and contact me now. While the fire is hot and the thought and desire fresh in your mind.

My Skype ID is “copyranger”. My phone number is 1-847-217-3039. So that you can calibrate time zones, I’m in Laguna Beach, California.

Warmly and respectfully,

PPS: A while ago, I got myself in major hot water on Warrior Forum. When I would do a project, or do a copy critique or a consult, or help out a fellow marketer in need, I would ask the person to 'say something nice 'bout me' on the forum. As a favor not only to me, but to others who needed help as well. So people could see what I do and what kind of person I am. Folks want to know. Wouldn't you? But a forum moderator took exception and said my friends' comments were considered advertising and put the cabash on it. :(

Well, here's Plan B:

I installed this commenting capability on May 19th, 2011. We'll see what happens. I've asked a few Clients and Partners if they'd be so kind as to contribute their thoughts in their own words about me and my work. To sort of get things going. If you're reading this right now, you'll be able to judge for yourself and see if it's a fit between us.

Here's what I know about Rick-

Rick helped me. A lot. I paid a copywriter $6,000 to write my sales letter. It flopped big time. I asked Rick to do a copy critique, and I learned a lot in that hour. He turned it around. Rick knows his stuff and he can deliver. I know this firsthand.

Rick,

I hope you're doing well. Thanks for the invite. Be glad to share my story.

To others in a similar situation:

Rick did some work for me back in 2006. And 2007. Mostly marketing consulting. I own a micro brewery.

Because of Rick's initial ideas, we've grown 50% year after year. Pretty impressive.

My point is Rick is a copywriter and a great one. But I don't need a lot of copy, what I need are solid ideas and strategies to grow by business.

And that's what I got from Rick.

To those thinking about having Rick coach them:

Rick's been coaching me off and on for about two years. During that time, I've become self-sufficient in finding my own copywriting work all by myself. I have steady repeat clients. I make good money now. As opposed to when I was just writing articles for two cents a word.

I'm sure if I would have tried to go it alone, I would have given up. But Rick provided enormous encouragement, incentive, ideas and most importantly a solid strategy for me to succeed. Tailored just to me.

Sure he can teach you how to write really good copy, that goes without saying.

But his real value is just being there when you get "stuck." Rick always has the breakthrough idea that seems to turn things around.

I'm happy to write this for Rick. It's one way to return the favor he gave me.

If you want to grow your leads, sales, and profits, well, Rick Duris is YOUR man. There isn't anything I've ever thrown at him that's had him stumped. Not one thing.

He won't tell you this, but through my own research [and dumb luck] I've discovered who he's worked for, written for, and worked with. It's a humbling list of MARKETING MASTERS.

These top-shelf marketers [Rick's clients] are the guys who get slammed at-the-back-of-the-room after they speak, because you and I know a 2 min. conversation with them could literally change the course of our business and finances.

These are the guys Rick has on speed-dial.

But as a personal favor, just pay the man what he's worth...

It's not that he's expensive at all [he'll actually make you a TON more then his modest fees], just don't expect him to work for peanuts, because 1) He's one of the best virtually undiscovered copywriting/ marketing talents there is and 2) He's not an elephant.

I am soo glad I called Rick to chat. Seriously. He's like the anti-salesman. I can't believe some of the stuff this reserved, humble guy comes up with!

All I can say is just give Rick Duris a call and have a chat with him [like I did], I guarantee you, you won't be sorry!

Respectuflly yours,

My first exposure to Rick was on the Warrior Forum. His comments and contributions immediately stood our for two reasons: they were spot on, and they were genuine and helpful.

I then looked at his website. Believe me, I spend way too much time online, so I see it all. But this simple, one-page message zapped me. I think it's brilliant, unique, but most of all, persuasive.

I didn't need a copywriter right then, but if I had, I'd have looked no further.

What I was looking for, however, was a coach. I had a nice little article-writing business but I wanted to move into copywriting. What a sweet slice of serendipity when I discovered Rick coaches aspiring copywriters.

I signed up immediately. We've only been working together for a short time, but already I've learned heaps. And I am convinced Rick's my ticket to becoming a great copywriter; no question about it.

But, more than all of his smarts, moxie and insights, he's a very funny man and always a delight to talk with.

If you need a copywriter, coach, or business strategist, look no further. Rick's got it all and is a very nice man to boot.

I own and operate a local marketing business.

We sell websites to business owners across America.

Unfortunately, one of our biggest constraints is getting the business owner to find time to create the copy that goes on the new website pages.

I'll be totally honest with you.

As a result, our refund rate was over 50%, one month it was 60%.

Totally unacceptable.

We needed a solution.

Managing a team of telemarketers, sales reps, sales managers, and web designers, the last thing I wanted to do was have to manage a bunch of half ass copywriters too.

I had met Rick Duris when he was writing copy for the legendary Jay Abraham. Rick was also running a masters "like" program for Jay. There were over 500 people in attendance, each paying something like $5,000 a piece.

I was impressed with Rick and it was not until most recently, while surfing the Warrior Forum that I see Rick Duris helping folks out with their copy.

We began conversing and long story short, Rick agreed to write the website copy and autoresponder messages for my clients.

We worked a fair deal out, and I did not mark up the cost to my clients who were already paying on average $2,999 for a website.

The refunds are down to ZERO and Rick's copy has opened doors for many other solutions, for example, we now pitch every new client on creating a customer reactivation campaign and the limited results thus far, have been astounding.

We are 7 for 7 with customer activation campaigns.

Thanks so much Mr. Duris.

Rick is very helpful, I am not sure if there are many copywriters out there who would give suggestions for free. I got several of them :)

He spoke to me one on one and explained the flaws.

I am impressed. He won my sales letter contract, and I am sure he will deliver.

Not many copywriters would tell you that they would work till the conversion improves.

I am excited to work with him.

Thanks again Rick
Lets Rock!

Just got off Skype with Rick Duris. It's still Sunday morning.

Just got done paypaling Rick money. And given what he's shared with me so far, I have EVERY expectation he'll knock it out of the park. I found Rick through a trusting referral. Rick is hard to find. But once you do, everybody else seems a poser. I mean how many copywriters you know dictate WINNING copy on the spot? I was amazed and I've got it recorded. Lucky me. )

When our conversation what finished, all Rick asked is that I say something nice about him here. He left it totally up to me. It's more than my pleasure. It's my privilege. (Rick, we are going to make a lot of money together. ;)

Compared to everybody else writing here, my story is different.

I needed a job.

I thought what I wrote was a pretty gosh darn good resume. Problem was I wasn't getting any interviews.

I showed my resume to my friend, Rick. He ripped it up and put it back together again in about an hour. I saw him do it with my own eyes. I have pride so I'll leave out Rick's comments.

Today, when I email my resume to a CraigsList ad, I get a call back usually in about 30 minutes. I'm amazed every time I think about it. That resume is gold.

Rick's not paying me to write this. Didn't pay him to write my resume either. He's that kinda guy. But when he needs something, I make sure he's got it.

Rick really helped me change the way I consider my copy requirements on my websites. I was continually seeking out and receiving the same old articles and copy from my writers. Rick has educated me in the short time that I have spent with him.

I now know what to ask my writers for and be more specific in my requirements. The results of a 'Copy Ranger'ed copy are clear to see. Hold one up to the rest of the copy on my site and you can tell immediately which is which.

Rick writes, and teaches to write engaging and interesting copy that stands out from the usual formulaic copy out there.

Spirits were sagging at the company until Rick took a crack at it...

Results were stunning. The initial test yielded a 68% improvement... The copy? More compelling than anything we'd seen previously from the last 5 copywriters we hired.

Inside secret?

Everyone at the company is trying to take credit here for Rick's work.

When everybody else is offering excuses and "reasons why" the copy didn't work, Rick quietly produced results and let them speak for themselves.

Nice little bonus is that Rick would just assume everyone else share credit. He really doesn't care.

But he has every right to be proud.

Hi Rick,

I just wanted people to know that you did a GREAT JOB on the last sales letter you did.

The entire campaign converted at 1.1% and the sales letter was integral to the complete sales funnel.

Now 1.1% may not sound like much. But in this economy, and this market, selling a high end coaching program requires some skill.

I just want people to know who Rick's is, what he can do and that you can trust him to follow through.

Hi Rick,

I know how valuable your help, advice and assistance has been to me and so many others.

I have one hope – that you’ll produce your own copywriting course.

Yes, there are many excellent ones (and I probably have most of them) - and they’ve helped me become a good copywriter.

But I’m missing one vital element – the “gift” – that unique “secret” that makes copy absolutely outstanding.

You’ve got it.

It may be a fusion of the world’s greatest copywriting techniques or it could be your sheer ability or natural talent.

Rick, whatever it is - few of us have what you have.

But we crave to learn it.

And with a bit of luck one day you’ll write it all down for us.

I'm not much of a Warrior Forum follower, but I can say the few times I've visited the copywriting forum, I've been very impressed with the value you create.

I just downloaded the Obvious Adams pdf you made available and reread it once again. I have gone though it many times in the past because it is one of the items Jay Abraham was offering to his students. There is not much Jay has produced I don't have or have had on marketing library bookshelves.

As a marketing and social entrepreneurship professor at a Japanese university just outside of Tokyo, I'm also impressed with your humbleness.

Currently, my responsibilities are very much on generating value for my university students, but if I can be of assistance to you in any way now or in the future, please don't hesitate to ask.

I just wanted to let you all know Rick is probably one of the smartest people I've talked to regarding marketing and how many different angles you can go at selling a product.

You really can't learn this stuff in any book, it's through years of experience and I can't thank Rick enough for his help. He transformed my thinking into a multi dimensional marketing master.

Rick is the real deal.

Thanks Again!

Rick Duris put me up to this. Said he'd shut off the killer copy faucet unless I said something.

Just kidding.

Rick would never in a bazillion years do that. But I have seen him do some pretty wild things.

The guy likes to try stuff. A lot of stuff. You never know where he's headed. He'll try it for the sake of trying it.

If you've ever been to dinner with this guy, you know what I mean. Korean bone marrow soup? Yuck. But he'll try it. Just for sake of it. Alligator? "Tastes like tough chicken. Try it!" He drives the waitstaff crazy.

And you know, I think that's what makes him a great marketer and copywriter. He's really open minded. He's not rigid in his thinking.

For an old guy, Rick, that says a lot. ;)

PS: Oh yeah, first time I met Rick, he almost doubled my conversions after poking around my website for a couple of days. Said he needed a bone to gnaw on. Gee, I wonder why. ;) Since then we've made some money together.

Rick Duris is a solid gold, marketing genius…The genuine article.

I've worked with many copywriters and many so called "online marketers". Rick shines brighter than any of them. He is A+ talent. You will not find a more effective copywriter and marketing strategist in the world today. Of that, I am convinced.

If you have the chance to have Rick work with your company or write copy for you, grab that opportunity with both hands…Pay him whatever he asks and thank him for the opportunity.

I am convinced there is nothing more rewarding or enjoyable in life than having the opportunity to work closely with, and learn from, truly talented people. But be warned, you need to be prepared to raise your personal bar too. Work with great people - prepare to become great yourself.

Rick's an artist. He'll give you the best and he'll bring the absolute best out of you. Be prepared for a lot of fun, a lot of success and $$$.

By the way, be prepared for one more thing - The Truth! You might not always like it, but with Rick you'll get it anyway. I guess, that's what makes him special.

First off, if you are in the market to hire a copywriter or marketing consultant, you'd be stupid for not at least calling Rick.

Just a little sip, and you'll know he's like a 30 year old single malt scotch: quality.

Now, I want to share a different side of Rick, and that's when things do NOT go well at first.

Marketing/copywriting is a lot like dating because it takes a while to figure out what works.

After one of our mailings the response to our call to action was weak.

Now most copywriters would blame this or that. Most copywriters would have their tail go between their legs and whimper.

Not Rick. That dude got pissed. And he worked and worked to figure out what was going on. He even called clients! A lot of them.

He went way beyond his budgeted hours on his dime. And I mean way beyond. I actually asked him to stop because I felt so bad he was burning up so much of his time.

Rick will tell he was disappointed in our campaign. To this day it eats him up. He gets personally invested in YOUR project. He wants to hit home runs. Grandslams.

I was looking for a double. Which I got.

The campaign fulfilled its purpose and that is the bottom line.
