Ogilvy on long copy

A reference to the classical Advertising text 'Ogilvy on Advertising', in which David Ogilvy describes the power of persuasion with a good long-copy ad.

So just putting it out there: in this 280 characters or less world, I'm still an "Ogilvy on Long Copy" kinda man.

Also use Duplicate instead of Copy.

Human Copying Machine

A highly trained person that wastes their time having to copy the same data across multiple systems, because:
1. the systems are not connected
2. people refuse to look at the single source of truth and want it in the specific place they look.

The human copying machine becomes frustrated at the waste of time and energy copy/pasting the same data/story when the priority should be focused on helping the customer.
