No credit, Neil Patel? “More like #StealPatel!” said my mentor. We laughed but it’s true: publishing someone’s concept and writing, verbatim, without credit — to sell your own “writing” services, no less — is intellectual theft, a high crime in our industry. It’s also inexplicable. Because really, why not give credit? Why not shout out the author of work you clearly respect or admire? It’s strange, damaging, even dangerous behavior, and it has no place in the #copywriting or #marketing or #creativity communities, here or anywhere else. yeh? And speaking of community, I was utterly moved yesterday by all the posts and comments and DMs and emails I received about this incident from folks who caught it. Thank you all for caring about me and my work ????
