The Fix #112: Gerald Woodgate shares the inside scoop on what it’s like to write with Drayton Bird
As copywriting mentors go, Drayton Bird is a pretty big fish.
Or is he a big bird?
Is he THE big bird? Have you ever seen Drayton and that yellow-feathered guy in the same room?
I’m just saying.
But anyway, our guest on the latest episode of The Fix knows very well what it’s like to be mentored by Drayton as he’s been working with him for many a year now.
I caught up with him a little while ago to find out more about what it’s like working with Drayton and to learn more about how Gerald got into copywriting in the first place.
I hope you find our chat interesting.
Oh, and also, you should find some attachments with this post that Gerald sent along.
One is the ad we discussed at the beginning, and the other two are the inspirational scraps he keeps by his computer at all times.
Best,
Glenn
