Dan Furman

Senior Copywriter. Business Consultant. Inc.com Columnist. AI Fan.

25 years of clicks, conversions, and clarity. 

Welcome to Clear Writing. For more than 25 years, I’ve helped thousands of companies make millions of dollars by honing their sales messaging, helping them communicate, seeing the flaws in their processes, and being a pain in the ass when needed.

Here in 2026, I stay focused by writing my Inc. column, helping a few select clients, and enjoying life. Can I help you? Maybe. I’m an advisor and consultant these days, but if you want to talk to a tech-savvy business pro who isn’t afraid to tell you the truth, we can chat.

 

What I Do

I write and talk about business. Mostly communications, marketing, processes, and customer service. I think big picture, I treat people well, and I like being clear. If you want to talk about your messaging, sales, processes, direction, ideas, or anything else, we can. More.

Who I Help

I’ve helped clients of all sizes, across countless industries, anywhere on the planet. I wrote everything from sales copy to internal communications to important external correspondence, often working directly for company presidents. And I made everyone money. 

Meet Dan Furman

Let’s meet Dan Furman, the writing and marketing expert who has been at this stuff for over two decades. But who is he? What makes him tick? And did he really marry his wife a month after meeting her? More.

“Know what makes you so valuable, Dan? You see the entire field.” 

Mark French, President

Crest Capital

So while we’re at the bottom of the page, let’s chat a bit. What brought you here? Did you search for a human writer or an AI marketing guy and wind up here? Or maybe you’re here because you know me, heard of me, clicked a link somewhere, or however else you wind up places on the internet. That’s cool too.

Regardless of how you got here, I do appreciate you reading this. It’s hard to get someone to read the second paragraph on the bottom of a web page. But I’ve largely made a career out getting people to do just that. 

In the past, I’d have some engaging message down here to drive conversions. But now I’m mostly-retired and have no interest in “projects” or deliverables. In a business sense, that prettymuch makes me “extra”, but sometimes a little extra can be a good thing.  

Enjoy your day.
