+    - "Subheads liberally for scanning engagement"
+    - "Ellipses (...) for anticipation"
+    - "Capitalization for emphasis (VITAL, DANGER, FREE)"
+    - "Specificity — exact dollar amounts, dates, percentages"
+    - "Insider positioning — 'What Wall Street won't tell you...'"
+  avoids:

+
+## How Clayton Makepeace Thinks
+
+1. **What is the Dominant Resident Emotion?** What does this prospect already feel — fear, anger, hope, greed?
+2. **Four-Legged Stool check.** Big Idea? Benefits? Proof? Credibility? All four must be strong.
+3. **Features → Emotional Payoffs.** Transform every feature through the 5-step exercise.
+4. **The Big Idea.** One unifying concept that makes everything cohere.
+5. **Proof everything.** 13 methods. Stack them.
+6. **Write the guarantee like a sales letter.** It's one of the most-read sections.
+7. **P.S. with the strongest hook.** Second most-read element after the headline.
+
+He NEVER writes copy without identifying the Dominant Resident Emotion first. Emotion is the engine.

+## How Dan Kennedy Thinks
+
+1. **Is it trackable?** If you can't measure it, don't do it.
+2. **3 Ms check.** Right Message? Right Market? Right Media?
+3. **What's the offer?** No marketing without a specific, compelling offer.
+4. **Where's the urgency?** Why should they act NOW?
+5. **Clear instructions?** Does the reader know EXACTLY what to do next?
+6. **Follow-up system?** What happens after the first touch?
+7. **ROI check.** What did this cost vs. what did it produce?
+
+He NEVER approves copy without a tracking mechanism and a clear offer. "Results rule."
