New Copy, How Does it Sound?

4 replies
This is LONG, as in 8,000 ish characters, so I completely understand if you don't want to read it! However, any criticisms you can give would be greatly appreciated. What you have in front of you is my first draft of an introduction to my sales copy at Cataclysm Gold Guide 20k Leveling . Right now the page really doesn't cater to the widest demographic, people who basically don't know who I am and I'd like to focus on making the site more sellable to brand new visitors who don't read my other websites in order to increase affiliate sales. I'd add this copy below the first video and then I'd move the first three testimonials after the "What's in it?" section. I'll also probably remove the list of checks with features. I'm a noob at this so any advice is greatly appreciated!

What easy steps does a gold guru follow in order to make thousands of gold every day? Can a wow millionaire really show you how to go from 0 to 1,000,000 gold?

If these are the kinds of questions you're thinking at this very moment, well then there's a wow gold making genius named Markco who I believe you may want to meet. For over two years this multi millionaire has been striving to aid players in learning the essential skills necessary to master the art of gold making in world of warcraft. If you haven't heard of Markco and his blog, Just My Two Copper, his podcast, Call to Auction, or his host of social media sites on twitter, facebook, youtube and even his own forum dedicated to making gold... then this page is going to be something of an awakening for you.

Just My Two Copper

The site that literally invented gold making as we know it today. It was here that Markco created the first community dedicated to finding the best ways to make gold in wow and it was here that he recently passed the 10,000 subscriber mark. Before Just My Two Copper there were no sites dedicated solely to acquiring gold in world of warcraft. Sure there was the occasional poorly constructed guide on a forum or youtube, but nothing of real substance or focus. For years Markco has shared his gold making wisdom with the world and was especially influential in championing the extensive use of addons as well as cross profession techniques in the gold process. Markco's revolutionary walkthroughs and guides are considered by many to be the best in the world and he continues to improve upon them to this day.

JMTC Forums

Seeing the incredible success of his blog, Markco launched the JMTC forums in order to provide his community with a place to gather and share ideas. Many thought... "A gold forum? Who would use this?" Low and behold, like every other project Markco touched this one turned into gold as well. Over time this extensive forum has become like a library to over 7,000 auction house junkies and continues to be a hot bed of current gold making discussions.

Call to Auction

Cohosting with Euripides and Big Jimm, Markco paved the way with the first ever successful gold making podcast. Once again, people thought, "A gold making podcast? Who's going to want to sit through THAT!?" Apparently, a few thousand people did and still do. Markco and his cohosts managed to make gold making not only easy, but entertaining as well for their listeners and their banter continues to this day.

Twitter/Youtube/Facebook

Markco isn't shy about mixing it up with his fanbase. Despite the fact that he maintains so many extensive world of warcraft gold making sites, he still makes time to help players daily through various aspects of social media. Markco constantly links to the latest gold making tips, answers questions and also tries on occasion to get feedback from his fanbase. Several thousand follow him daily on these social media sites.

IRC and Weekly Ventrillo Meetings

Once again, Markco created a way for the community to get involved with one another, but this time with more than just text. Through the use of real time IRC and Ventrillo channels, Markco created a way for both experienced and novice gold makers to interact on a daily basis.

Coaching Program

If you haven't noticed yet, Markco likes to be innovative in his approaches to building up the wow gold making community. His latest work, a coaching program for wow players, is just another example of his herculean efforts towards this goal as well as his creative use of online tools to help players achieve success in world of warcraft. Here, coaches and players get to interact one on one and create sessions to teach and to learn from one another.

Now that you know Markco, can he help you?

In an episode of the late How I Wow, a podcast which also interviewed wow celebrities like Curt Schilling of the Phillies, Felicia Day of The Guild and Randy Johnson from the Instance Podcast, the hosts were extremely impressed not only by Markco's knowledge of in game mechanics but also his mentality. They brought forth an incredible insight about Markco's personality, one that is the source behind his seemingly inexhaustable energy: "For Markco, it's not about the gold, it's about success." Jokingly the hosts, Sean and Patrick, also mentioned that Markco would make a great life coach because he inspired them to take up gold making more seriously on their own characters.

You see, Markco doesn't just want to be the best, he HAS to be because he won't settle for anything less. It drives him to create products which are literally forced to succeed by the amount of effort, talent and energy he puts behind them. This mentality, of course, also pertains to this gold guide.

Markco has mastered the art of teaching players to make gold in world of warcraft. He knows that not everyone is an auction house junkie, so that's why he focused on developing a system which could teach players of all skill levels how to master the auction house. These 12 easy to follow lessons will show you everything you need to know about making gold and it is completely up to you how much effort you would like to put into your auction house endeavors. Even if you just want to spend 15 minutes a day making gold, you can use these 12 lessons to turn your gold making into an automated process which requires very little effort on your part to succeed.

Markco and his team here at 20kleveling.com strive to create the best learning environment for YOU on YOUR individual server. They will answer your questions and hold your hand throughout the gold making process. Their video, audio and written tutorials far exceed any other product you can find in the wow market because they INVENTED these strategies first and will continue to improve upon them and take the innitiative for creating new tutorials throughout cataclysm.

    A couple of things. Your headline is awful. You need to really work on it. The other thing is, I have no idea what this is. Maybe it's explained (I didn't read all your stuff) in the body of your copy. I can't tell whether this is a game or something where people can somehow end up with real gold.

    If this is something where you can actually get paid you need to explain it right up front. If this is some trendy game with lots of people playing, you can lighten up on the explanation though I'm a firm believer in assuming that no one understands anything and almost always and give the rundown up front.

    I have no idea whether your copy or videos are any good but you've got a bit of work to do before even going there. I'm sure others will let you know. Good luck.

      Hi Chris,

      It's bad, as in it sucks.

      Here's why...

      You have paragraphs about Markco with scant mention
      of what's in it for your reader.

      One sentence, or at the most one paragraph maximum
      should go into telling why Markco is worth listening to.

      Rest is about what the reader wants.

      I'm not part of your market so I can't tell you what they want.

      That's your job to find out...or a hired hand.

      All the best,
      Ewen

    Hi Chris,

    My first impressions were that there was just too much emphasis on Marko, and not on what the custoemr gets. Try answering the questions your custoemr will be asking like:

    What is this?
    Why do I care (what does it solve for me)
    How do I know it works?
    Who are you and why should I trust you?
    What if it doesn't work?
    How long will it take?
    What will I have to do?
    How do I get involved?
    Whats' the guarantee


    good luck!
