How To Build An "Instant" Million Dollar Swipe File
Hello BBHF members. Found this today and searched deeply going through all the Ben Settle material shared on this great forum and.., came up dry. If I somehow missed this share then we can delete or merge no problem. So I present to you, "How To Build An "Instant" Million Dollar Swipe File".
Note- This is from 2007, yes 10 years, as such, some of this PDFs links do not work anymore or are link urls that are now something other than what link describes but many do, so have a look. If nothing else use what information is in this PDF to begin your own copywriting treasure hunt. Kinda cool if you're into finding unique copywriting riches.

Awesome, thanks for the share!
Thank you @Razmataz13 - appreciated greatly
Thanks for the share. I've noticed a handful of the URL's that should lead to the swipes are not working. Some sites don't even exist. Is anyone else having the same problem?

Hey md1984 I wrote about this in the OP explaining that some of the links are so outdated they aren't working or are now other things. But you can find information from the expired urls leading you to some nice material. Just use g00gle to search for the url words individually.
