“Dan was very generous by offering to give feedback via email or at any point in our copywriting journey--even after the class ended. He genuinely wants to help. He also really knows his stuff and gave pro-level instruction. It helped so much to learn from somebody who has been doing the work for years yet doesn't have any ego, just good vibes.”
“Dan can magically take your idea and make it even better. He creates a fun environment where everyone learns to push concepts and solve communication problems quickly.”
“I really loved my class with Dan. He was kind, gave great feedback, super knowledgable, and helpful in giving us great ideas on how to get work after. I can’t say enough positive things about him, honestly.”
“He was always enthusiastic and supportive. He was always organized and prepared, giving us lots of great instruction.”
“Incredibly warm, friendly, funny, helpful and kind. He clearly knows his sh*t. He was always very supportive with his feedback, never critical. Dan was the man.”
“Dan expanded ideas, built on what was working & pushed us to more interesting places. It helped me think more creatively, and I'm a better writer for it. This class was great!”
