Six Words you should Tape to your computer.
The great British writer Rudyard Kipling had a formula that, he said, helped him overcome writer’s block.
Kipling’s formula is just six words. The words are:
WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHEN, WHY and HOW
These words are the roadmap for all your sales copy, blog writing and a good start to any article.
Everything you write and say to your audience, to your prospect, to your customer must address “WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHEN WHY and HOW.â€

Hi Valerie,
Who said that? :-)
What was he thinking?
Where was he when he wrote that?
When did he write that?
Why did he share that idea with the world?
