Default I am back !

Hello Guys, few months ago I'd a site which got a really high bounce rate I'd to do something ,
I asked you guys and you said the copy is bad.. too negative actually , and you also mentioned the purple theme isn't working for you.

So.... I took all your advices and tried to implement them all into one page. now here's the result : Welcome to The Bible of the Bride | Free Yourself from Wedding Jitters
Please Tell me what you think now,

I appreciate your time and help, Barak

The audio testimonial is so bad... and sounds so fake you will lose all credibility right there.

If the woman in the picture doesn't speak english then don't use an audio. But using such a phony sounding actress (or robot or whatever it was) makes you look like a fraud.

Barakos,

I'm not sure how many times we can kick this horse
before it stays dead.

I realize that you don't have much money.
I understand that you are desperate to make this work.
It doesn't...

What a letter like this demands more than anything else
is SINCERITY, authenticity...

Vin is absolutely right (duh) about that testimonial KILLING
whatever credibility you might have (which is to say NONE).

Red is better than purple. That's an improvement...

Otherwise, it's still stuck in the gate.

You need to quickly get into how EASY, SIMPLE and QUICK this is going to be for the bride to be.

1. I wouldn't consider reading your 1st paragraph - a sea of text seems like work to me
2. Your formatting is all over the place
3. The page feels too wide (for me anyway)
4. Your stock photos for the testimonials are obviously fake
5. 60 days is too short a guarantee considering most women start planning their wedding 365 days in advance (often more). Even more so when you look at the planner bonus, which would imply that the bride to be is in the early stages of their planning, not less than 60 days away
6. The line "especially perfect" is an oxymoron and therefore makes no sense
7. There's no hook
8. There's no specific benefits implied (at least, not that I could spot on arrival)
9. There's no USP
10. There's no price justification
11. You say it's normally sold for $99 - I say "so what?", because I don't see proof, or a reason why you're selling it for over 50% off...and I certainly don't see the value which warrants $99

I hope this helps, good luck and keep at it!

Nick

You are the reason why we do not like giving advice as freely as before.

Nick spent time on his response. Click the thanks button and show him
some love. In 2 days this thread will be buried and nobody will know that
Nick helped another Warrior.

We don't sit around waiting for people to help for nothing. Most of us do it
for recognition along with feeling like we helped someone.

Thank you for your cooperation
I appreciate your support Paul. In the OP's defence, he did thank me, just not via the thanks button.

Nobody owes me anything around here - I'm forever in debt to most of you all, in one way or another (particularly the ones who post a lot overall in the WF).

I'll take the recognition where it's due though, as let's not yank each others' chains here - this place is a lead generator as well as a community.

Anyone who says otherwise is cretinous

Ya, your back.

Big F**** deal.

You come and ask for help. Then you don't implement any of the help. Then... you bitch about. Your back... big damn deal.

P.S. We've went through this already. Remember?.

Listen,

The last person that helped you regarding "Wedding Planning" was...

Michel Fortin


Hello... if Michel Fortin gave me some advice... I would follow it!

F-O-R-T-I-N. Not good enough.

Sheesh

Of course now we are all a-holes.

What's this business about Fortin helping this dood? That I did
not know about...
Ya, I almost crapped my pants.

Michel Fortin, the man that Gary Halbert was impressed by. The man that John Carlton spoke about killer copywriting ideas with.

The man that could call David Garfinkle right now if he wanted to... just to say... "Whats up dude".

Yes, Michel was gracious enough to help out someone who is un-appreciative and un-grateful.

Michel Freak'n Fortin
