Greg Dixon’s Most Fun Copywriting Projects

Computer keyboard and notepad. My Most Fun Copywriting Projects. Greg Dixon

Copywriting is a big word. Copywriting is simply the effective use of words for persuasion and communication. That covers most things that humans do — including marketing.

Here are some of the fun projects and niches I like.

I like to combine blogging, video, social media posts, and email to create a search-engine-friendly online presence that attracts people to special events and offers.

Concert and theatre tickets can be a fun project and easy sales. It is much easier to let people know where to find what they are looking for than to generate new interest.

In addition to music, I have a lot of interest in food security, green energy projects, real estate, healthy living, travel, and trading.

I also enjoy learning new things and creating content about them.

My background includes the study of English Literature AND computer systems, making me equally comfortable with a range of writing from story productions to technical documents and case studies. I have worked in many industries.

I also have an odd infinity for desktop publishing — things like posters and brochures.

I also do a lot of video work for marketing and education.

Do you have projects that could use help with copywriting, copyediting, or marketing?

What is your Fun Project?

Greg Dixon’s Golden Connections ~ Something For Everyone!

Greg Dixon provides links to his best resources in one place.

I have helped many people and companies in many ways over the decades.

This page provides links and short explanations of the many resources and personal projects I have created over the years.

Have fun exploring!

What do you need help with? I will likely be able to make at least some suggestions.

LinkedIn is my main target for posting content and connecting with individuals and project teams.

My YouTube channel has hundreds of videos on a wide range of topics, including training, marketing, projects, events, and music. It is an archive of what I have done since 2007!

I started an audio podcast last year with many episodes.

I offer a wide range of publishing and marketing services, especially related to publishing books, courses, and membership programs.

My encouragement to everyone is to preserve family members’ personal stories while you still can.

I offer planning and resources to capture stories and related media, assembling them into montages, websites, Life Vaults, and books to preserve and share legacy.

Capture Family Stories While You Still Can! And Make The Adventure FUN!

I asked my LinkedIn community about two book titles. One emphasized the urgency. The other made it sound like a fun thing to do.

Half like the urgency spin. Half liked the fun spin.

One person said she liked the urgency version because she did not think preserving family stories was fun.

More like writing a will or going to the dentist.

Interesting.

While it can be a lot of work, most of the story productions I have done for clients have been fun and an honour.

I think the process of capturing the life stories of loved ones is both Important and Urgent — we are all aging.

But I think people are much more likely to do the work if it’s fun.

A get-to-do, not a have-to-do.

So, I have combined the two ideas into a new book cover.

Capture Family Stories 3D Cover

Capturing personal stories can be as simple as getting people to talk and recording with a SmartPhone. It can all be edited and assembled later.

Collecting and scanning photos can all be a fun get-together.

Also, Family Storie Parties can be done in person or online.

Take turns telling your stories.

While we can dwell on the hard times, I like to focus on the adventures and the amusing stories we all have.

Imagine the lasting legacy of a book or multimedia presentation for personal and public enjoyment.

The book with tons of insights, approaches, and resources will be released soon.

Meanwhile, talk to Greg Dixon about how to get started now.

Greg Dixon can help you with all of the collecting, assembling and publishing steps.

Tell Your Own Personal Story While You Still Can!

What will people say about you at your memorial?

Will they genuinely know what was important to you?

Or will they make it up?

The time to write and preserve your own personal story is now, while you have your health.

I can help you collect the fragments of your life in words, images, and video.

Then we can assemble into story productions in various formats, such as a personal website, video montage to show at family gatherings, a secure multimedia portal, and/or a printed book.

Most of the Story Productions I have created so far have been personal stories, initiated by the person or by a family member.

Capturing and Publishing Family Stories For Fun!

American Thanksgiving and the Holiday Season are coming up soon.

Consider giving your family and loved ones a Story Production to capture personal and family stories as a lasting gift.

We are not getting any younger, and sometimes the opportunity to capture personal stories passes us by.

I have some regrets in that area.

Collaborate with me to capture and preserve the stories, photos, video, and audio in Google Drive folders.

I can conduct interviews and facilitate family storytelling sessions. You never know what will come out of the woodwork!

Then we organize our content into various story productions in different formats. Simple photo and video montages are good for presenting at memorials, weddings, anniversaries, and other special occasions.

A personal or family website is perfect for sharing stories publicly.

It is also possible to have the family update and expand the content over time, making the website a living legacy.

A Life Vault is a multimedia portal that supports multiple levels of access, allowing you to share only certain stories with family and friends.

The stories can also go into books that can be printed or viewed as eBooks and Flipbooks.

Let’s start with identifying and capturing the most important stories.

Playing Music For Fun with Greg Dixon

Girl playing a toy guitar. Playing Music For Fun

My first attempt at music was playing a chair with drumsticks in elementary school with friends who wanted to start a band. The first song was This Diamond Ring, by Gary Lewis and the Playboys.

I played percussion in school orchestras and drums with a band called Elygra (Argyle backwards) through High School.

Later, I played drums in many hobby and semi-pro bands.

I also sang in the Singspiration Singers choir for twelve years.

At some point, I started playing bass with groups and duos. I know enough to tag along as a musical faker.

I also sit in on jams on bass and drums, usually not knowing what the other players will play next.

Many people marvel at how we do that!

The Basics of Playing With Other People

It is much easier than it looks and does not take years of study and practice.

If you listen to music and can tap along on a table, you’re on your way to being a drummer. This is almost innate for most people.

I use a few simple note tricks to accompany the bass guitar.

Say a song has three chords: G, C, and D. These are the root, 4th, and 5th elements of the key of G.

I will play a pattern that plays these notes. Playing in different keys is a matter of starting the pattern on the root note.

With both drums and bass, rhythm and feel are a big part of it.

Piano and Guitar are more challenging as the finger positions change with different chords and key positions.

Still, you can start simple.

Playing Music For Fun

I am working on a book, program, and presentation to help people who love music get started in playing music.

There are many things you can do on your own and many opportunities to explore with others and work your way up with new skills.

All of the great musicians you love started with simple learning a few things, learning more, and experimenting.

Playing music can be a lifelong joy for you.

Stay Tuned!

What Is Your Dream Project?

Greg Dixon with snow=capped mountains in the background. What is your Dream Project?

Over the decades, I have helped many people and companies achieve their project goals.

Often, it started with a request for help doing something I may not have done before. Many of the tools and skills I have now came from figuring out how to help people.

Past Adventures

Here are some of the adventures that came from saying yes.

  • Selling How to Coach Baseball to Kids VHS tapes and CDs.
  • Cancer Benefit Concerts.
  • Many websites across niches, including botanical gardens, choirs, concerts, theatre productions, bands, real estate investors, natural health companies, and dozens of my own projects.
  • Project Management stints during the Smoke and Mirrors Venture Capital boom of the last millennium. One took me to Hong Kong with a company that wanted to do online trading.
  • Some Technical Writing gigs.
  • Software development for a large consulting company and my own clients.
  • A singer in a band I was in was a PhD candidate for Applied Psychology. A request to help compile a BASIC program led to over twenty years of developing and supporting psychometric assessment systems for hiring and development. At one time, every person who applied to work at TELUS took a Values In Action assessment we designed for them. Ka Ching! Our most comprehensive system was a Management Assessment for senior managers and CEO candidates. The owners aged out and resisted succession, or we would still be running the service today.
  • Some quirky music videos with musicians I played with.
  • Videos for concerts, theatre productions, food recovery, urban farming, botanical gardens, family events, weddings, and much much more.
  • Sizzle reels for speakers.
  • Promotional and training videos on many topics.
  • Many online interviews with people who have interesting stories and offers.
  • A wide range of personal and family story productions.
  • Video interviews with pioneers of the Natural Health industry.
  • Comprehensive marketing, including landing pages, social media, blogging, and email.
  • Formatting and publishing books in print and other formats.
  • Online courses.
  • Live events such as concerts and coffeehouses.
  • At one choir concert, I engineered the sound, used three video cameras, and sang in the choir. I could control the mixer with my phone and popped out from time to time to check the balance.
  • Recording and producing songs.
  • More …
