Please critique my sales page copy...

11 replies
Hi everyone,

I'm wondering if I could get a critique of the copy at my sales page Write at Home...Even If You've Never Written an Article! Any graphics/style suggestions are also welcomed though I did pretty much model my sales page layout after seven figure earners such as Kathleen Gage.

Peace, love, happiness and of course PROSPERITY,
Stephanie

    Hi Stephanie.

    I like the middle part of the page with red headlines - it feels readable and easy to navigate.

    But I'm a bit turned off if the main headline goes along the line of "This is my product, and it does this and this", with little reference to the reader. You are proud of your work, but the cold fact is - very, very few people are interested in you. Starting your pitch by telling me the special report is yours doesn't do it for me.

    Say more about the product and what it will give the potential buyer. This is important, especially considering the first headline of your page.

    Also I think you should reconsider the color of your main heading. Blue headlines can work, but here it almost feels as an "aside note" - it doesn't seem like the most important thing to read on the page - which it is.

    It also brings some visual distraction. Some headlines on your page are blue, some are red and some are black. I'm not saying all should be in the same color (this would be a very bad rule to follow always), but changing the color too often can make the text hard to follow.

    Remember to split test changes to your pages - you won't get any absolute truths here.

    P.S. you have a typo in a yellow highlight: "pay people like you for articless"

    I hope I gave you some constructive ideas. Good luck with your site, and peace, love and happiness to you too!

      Hi, Stephanie

      I would suggest you offer the free sample as an exit pop for people who don't buy rather than halfway down your sales page.

      You should have a "greased slide" right from the heading to the "buy now", and having the optin page in the middle acts like a speed bump.

      You also might want to introduce yourself near the top of the page. People need to know who you are and why they should listen to you before they decide whether to buy your product or not


      Hope this helps

    Hi, Stephanie

    Without graphic ornament, page looks somehow cheap...
    I do not have confidence in the pages that look that way...

    Secondly, I have not read the whole text. I lost interest in the middle of the page...

    Too many of the text...

    Concisely, in two or three sentences to describe and offer the product (just how long the visitor attention)...
    For the curious, we can provide additional links for more information ...

    Use a smaller font, always looks more attractive ...

    I would get rid of the exclamation mark after Word-Class Writter and put a comma instead and make it like a beginning of a letter. At first I thought that Word-Class Writer was your subtitle. Otherwise some slight tweeking and your doing well :]

    In your author bio you basically vomiting statements without any attachment as to why I should care...

    Your scarcity or reason to buy today is beyond weak...

    Your opener loses me, it feels more like an interrogation....

    Your message is lacking any specific promise...

    Great start though

    The problem really jumps off the page: "World Class Writer!"

    Is it about you being a world class writer..?

    Is it about you somehow helping them become one..?

    Is this offer for world class writers only? (few if any in your target market will feel they are)

    Fix the targeting first, lest the confusion follow the reader right through the letter.

    I'd also add a pre-head highlighting the problem the headline purports to solve.

    Headline itself is way too wordy and 'tries too much'. And the subheading is MIA.

    In short: fix the targeting, then fix the headline stack. Then you're in a lot better position to fine tune the rest of it.

    1-Why would you use a blue headline when it's been proven over and over that RED is by far the best converting headline?

    2- You need a photo of a "smiling woman at home writing" - Paste that in google images and there you go.

    • Stephanie,
      I like the concept, and the website is simple and easy to navigate. I like your photo, you look like a genuine person with a great smile

      The problem I have - and it may be related to the browser, Internet Explorer - that some parts of the text look different from others although you seem to use same font. For example, the part after

      With this amazing report you will...

      the one with highlighted lines - the two lines starting with "Find out", and the "Learn proven techniques to overcome mental blocks to your financial, emotional and spiritual prosperity" they look bigger than the rest of the bulleted section.
      When I read some of the Warriors' responses, I just nodded my head - I, too, feel that blue somehow doesn't work here. To me this particular blue looks like a clickable link.
      Te banner at the bottom of the page doesn't look right.

      the red thingy with FREE on it is gorgeous, but the capitals look like somebody's screaming.
      And the

      World-Class Writer!

      is confusing. I'm not sure if you're introducing someone, or addressing a customer.

      What I miss here is a story, something that would tell me who you really are, and how important it is what this program will do for me.
      And one more thing, I know that some Warriors may disagree with me but the questions below the headline are sooo negative! I understand that we use scarcity, and "we against them", and the underdog, but you see, right now I'm working very hard just to pay my bills and I'm so tired it's not funny. And when I read "Are you just sick with worry about how you can feed your family..." I thought, "Yes, I am. It wakes me up at night. And that's why I'm so determined to succeed, and that's why I write 12-14 hours a day, 7 days a week, and the last thing I need is someone reminding me how tough it is. What I need instead, is - 'hey, tough, huh? I've been there, but don't worry, here's something that'll help you.'"
      Just saying.
