If you are looking for a little weekend inspiration, look no further. Earlier this week, GJEP released "
Another Grand Day," the sequel to our

I hope it inspires you in the same way!
Wishing you a Grand Day,

Your copy should address 3 key questions: Who am I writing for? (Audience) Why should they care? (Benefit) What do I want them to do here? (Call-to-Action).
Create a great offer by adding words like "free" "personalized" "complimentary" or "customized." A sense of urgency often helps readers take an action, so think about inserting phrases like "for a limited time only" or "only 7 remaining!"
