You’re probably wondering…

Who in the hell is Tony?

And what in the hell does he write about?

Well…

My name is Tony, and I write short stories that make you laugh, contrarian takes that make you think and practical tips on marketing and writing on my 10-year-old blog, tonysbologna.com.

The details:

In all seriousness, I’m a:

Best-selling author, humorist, senior copywriter, and small business owner.

Sorry for the mouthful.

All of the jobs I’ve ever had revolved around one thing: “Words.

How to write them. How to say them, and how to use them to make connections. It has become my livelihood.

I started off my career doing something I never thought I would do, sales.

As someone who was shy, short, and soft-skinned, the constant rejection I faced during outside sales was perhaps the best therapist I ever had.

It turned an introvert into an extrovert. It made a weak man strong. It taught me about human nature and was the single best training for copywriting I ever had.

Over the course of my sales career, I’ve sold to hundreds of companies, been rejected thousands of times, and tallied up millions of dollars in sales. While I loved the thrill of selling and the people I met – I needed an escape. It was writing –the only way for me to make sense of the chaos.

I started writing comedy in 2015, and I haven’t looked back since. Once I learned you could get paid to sell through writing – I made the switch to copywriting- it was the best decision I ever made.

Chances are, you may have read and even thrown away my work. I’m the guy responsible for the junk mail from one of America’s largest companies.

Today, I’m a marketing manager and own a freelance copywriting business. But at my core, I’m the same guy I’ve always been –

A comedian at heart whose favorite thing is a well-timed joke or an ill-timed fart.

When writing, I focus on three main topics:

Stories to make you laugh.

Stories to help you live better.

Stories to make you more persuasive.

And sometimes all three at the same time 😉

At the end of the day, I’m trying to do the best I can with the tools I got, and I try to bring all facets of me to the paper… not just a specific niche.

My big dream is to make it as a fiction author, and I’d love to have you along for the ride.

That said, thank you so much for reading, I can’t tell you how much it makes my day.

You rock.

– Tony
