Charm Offensive Professional is for you if…
Every response I got to my cold emails has given me such a buzz
I stumbled upon the Charm Offensive methods through a recommendation from someone, and as soon as I did some investigating, I instantly LOVED Jon’s style.
After about 2 seconds of deliberating, I signed up to his Charm Offensive Professional subscription, and have absolutely no regrets about this. He made me realise that CEO’s, and high-up executives, are just people who are human and like to laugh too.
The value he provides in this subscription (especially with the price it is) is unbelievable! Every response I got to my cold emails has given me such a buzz, and made me very, very appreciative!! If you have a business and are looking to reach out to new prospects, Jon’s methods are definitely the right way to go!
Since joining Pro I’ve launched digital products, changed my business model, and made a lot more money
I’ve left approximately 2534 testimonials for Charm, but here am I again.
If you’re not a member of charm pro, you need to be – fact.
It’s like a family, everybody happy to help out with everything including copy, productivity, and even finding football cards from 1984 (true story).
Since joining Charm Offensive Professional, I’ve got more done in the last 4 months than the year before! Launched digital products, changed my business model, making a lot more money and more importantly I’m a happier person.
The support from Jon, Gary, and all other the charm pro members is invaluable and no matter where you are in your business journey, their smarts are ridiculously useful.
Charm pro is really as good as we all say it is
Your word of mouth referrals will eventually run out and when they do you’ll be pressured to buy ads or go live everyday for the next 99 days in a row.
Or you can believe that there is no one better to directly sell your offer than you.
That’s why you should join Charm Pro because it’s true.
You are the best person for the job, and with Jon’s stuff your potential clients will be happy you sold them.
Charm pro is really great and as good as we all say it is.

You will be able to open opportunities for yourself whenever you want… and when you’re able to do that, life gets really exciting.
I never thought I’d give this information away, which I guess is why I sold it instead.

The Offensively Easy Launch Formula
If you’d like to do launches that drain your phone battery, read on…
I always wondered “Will my unorthodox Charm Offensive copywriting style transfer from the world of cold pitches to the world of launches?”
It turns out, it does, but with modifications. When I first started doing this… I got a lot wrong. I used to hate launches. Now I love them:
You know my approach is different.
I’m constantly trying things out and keeping what works. Instead of having to do the same, I’ve done the hard work for you, saving you time, money, and varying levels of anguish.
The Offensively Easy Launch Formula shows you:
How to win a MegaClient
This training goes through the full process we went through to secure Symantec as a client
Symantec is a $4 billion a year company. Their most well-known brand is Norton Antivirus, but they make most of their money from huge B2B contracts with other massive corporations.
We’d won business with some decent companies already, but really we were just starting out – and this contract was game-changing. We’d never seen this much money before! And then we used this system to win more enterprise clients with big budgets.
I remember the day we won them…
Winning Symantec involved a lot more than sending a silly cold email.
That just got the ball rolling. As a small agency, we had to impress. Big clients often prefer to play it safe and hire big agencies, seeing them as less risky. We had to go out of our way to show Symantec that we were the best choice for their social media and content marketing needs.
This training covers:
How to Create a Niche
Create your own weird little sub-niche, just like Charm Offensive
Covered in this training:
The Charming Open for Business Pack
We’ve built a system that reliably generates cash, even during the Covid-19 crisis. We will explain which platforms we use, how we use them, and how they all work together.
Covered in this training:
PLUS: The Charm Offensive Zine!
Get digital copies of all 6 Charm Offensive Zines.
While you can’t purchase these strictly limited edition physical zines anymore, you can find digital versions of each issue in the Charm Offensive Professional Content Area.
Issue 1: How To Win A Multi-Billion Dollar Client
This issue covers how we won our first billion dollar corporation, Symantec, as a client – despite running a small agency that would never usually be in contention for such a deal. Inside, we run through the entire process, step by step. Our in-depth breakdown includes…
- Positioning
- Sales hooks
- The first meeting
- The research stages
- The pitch deck
- The Big Pitch
Plus, there’s a bitesize rundown at the end, highlighting the persuasion science permeating everything we did.
This inaugural issue also features the following superb guest articles:
- Treating Your Customers Like Kings – Even As You Scale
- 5 Lessons From The Darkweb’s Own Heisenberg
- Using The Persuasion Sandwich To Persuade And Profit With Minimal Resistance
And a bonus mini article from Jon, entitled “Disrupting The Game.”
Issue 2: How To Get PR Coverage
This issue deals with a major cornerstone of many digital disciplines, including SEO, Content Marketing, Social Media Marketing, and Brand Awareness: garnering that all-important PR coverage. Within its shiny PDFed pages, we reveal our Principles, Processes, and Possibilities for procuring PR coverage for clients.
This issue’s post-prandial points, presented for your perusal…
- Visible and Irrelevant Vs. Invisible and Relevant: Meeting clients in the middle
- Becoming the de facto resource
- How to analyse quality content in any sector
- Jacking the news cycle

- The Content Marketing Checklist
Issue 3: How To Be Witty
This issue offers you a glimpse behind the curtain, where I reveal some of the literary tricks I use to sound witty and charming. I can’t employ this bodacious British accent when writing – so, I often bridge this gap with the following techniques…
- The Reverse
- Triples, or The Power of 3
- The Flippant Hands Formula
- Recognition
- The Hyperbolic Backpedal
- Words In Their Mouth
- How To Use Funny Word Combinations
- Mixing Formal And Informal Tone
Read the examples. Learn the formulas. Then write your own.
You too can tease a smirk, smile, or belly laugh. What’s more, you can sound as charmingly befuddled as Hugh Grant, Colin Firth, or Idris Elba (delete as appropriate).
Issue 4: The Guest Issue
This issue turns the by-now entirely established zine format on its head, featuring a mere two articles by yours truly.
In my executive days, I witnessed a smorgasbord of shady practices – the likes of which I never wanted to besmirch my own marketing agency. I have since learned that many a tenacious small business owner is still prone to be hoodwinked by these dastardly tactics. To combat this, and save face for the industry’s good guys, I present to you The Top 5 Advertising And Marketing Agency Tactics Businesses Should Look Out For:
- Big Hitters Pitch Then Vanish
- The Insignificant Changes Shield
- The Filibuster
- The Stacked Account Team
- Hyping The Average As Amazing
At the risk of sounding like a feature-length late night infomercial: that’s not all. This jam-packed PDF also features a cavalcade of qualified commentators, with worthwhile guest articles on…
- iPhone Users Get More Sex
- The Definitive Guide On How To Write Good
- Seven Deadly Sins Of Copywriting

Issue 5: How To Build An Adoring Fanbase Using Facebook Groups
On a seasonably overcast, probably drizzly day in March 2017, I triumphantly started the Charm Offensive Facebook Group. My perseverance unwavering, I managed to reach over 3,000 members within 3 months. Plus, I started making the sales I needed to keep the wolves from the door.
In this issue, I show you exactly how I got it done. Take my unreasonably clammy hand as we delve into:
- What Makes For A Successful Facebook Group
- How Do I Decide What My Theme Is
- What Has Made The Charm Offensive Group Successful?
Within this issue’s pink and pale pages, I chronologically critique the following tactics and techniques:
- Content Theming
- Growing Your Group
- Using LinkedIn To Grow Your Audience
- Using Your Personal Facebook Profile
- Getting Their Attention While Having A Little Fun
- How To Know What Products To Build
- How To Build Enough Products To Have A Subscription
Issue 6: Win With Words – The Zine Edition
“Sometimes, you gotta go back to actually move forward,” Matthew McConaughey mused theatrically in a 2014 commercial introducing the Lincoln MKC. I may have never been on True Detective, but I think I know what their marketing slogan team was getting at.
This issue takes us back – way back – to a fresh-faced Jon Buchan of 2012. Somewhere between Queen Liz’s Diamond Jubilee and the London 2012 Olympics; through a haze of Morgan’s Spiced Rum and Diet Coke, I penned the most outrageous engagement email of my professional life. For the first time ever, I examine the drunk cold email that started it all – analysing, line-by-line, a version of one of my original effective charming templates.
We’re leaving no stone unturned with this one, with every minute detail laid bare:
- Getting Your Email Opened
- The Warren Buffett Technique
- Actually Likeable Soft Sell
- A Little Reverse Psychology
- Even Make The Haters Smile
- The Long Game
As if that wasn’t enough, this issue also includes two bonus secret weapons. The first is a template for generating a cohort of casual client meetings. The second is a template for organising a plethora of informal job interviews.
