I have a product that I sell on Amazon and we just got a copy created on elance.
We have two buttons on the page... one to the site order page and one to the amazon page.

Im thinking of getting a video on it, but still not too sure.

Can you guys take a look and weigh in on if it needs help. I sent 50 clicks off adwords and got no purchases. dont wanna waste money if it sucks.

    These are pitifully bad.

    Sorry, but these wouldn't even work as presell. Zero credibility. Zero authority. Zero story. And horribly, horribly written. Embarrassing copy. Just God awful.

    Traffic? Um, no.

    I won't even bother giving specific critiques (although I'd love to see Mal take a shot.)

    Start completely over. Hire someone who knows what they're doing.

    Sorry, but what the hell were you thinking?

    P.S. To compete in this HUGE market, you need a big budget. I can only imagine what you paid on Elance.

    Did you really pay someone on Elance for those?

    Whorever laid out those pages is a moron. I couldn't work the head out at first.
    The hot you is trapped inside the fat you let the hot you break free
    Then I realised the "let the hot you break free" should be on a different line. And not in yellow so that you're reading "fat you let the hot you break free". So it should look like this -

    The "hot you" is trapped inside the "fat you"...

    Let the "hot you" break free

    As for the copy? Usual spurious claims. Zero credibility. Fix that head and you might do better. Plenty of dopes out there that will fall for this snake-oil.

      so who should we hire? and what budget should we have?

      We honestly don't know where to go to.

      We have repeat buyers and make sales, when we send traffic directly to the amazon product page. We just wanna be able to presell before they get to the amazon page.

      Yah they blew it on the header, I couldn't make sense of it. Even laid out properly it reads weird.

      Is that right?

      True, you'd have to be a dope to fall for it -- but are pages like that actually converting?

    I think we've established it does need a complete overhaul and a rewrite.

    Whoever you choose make sure they pay close attention to the "treasure trove"

    And wtf is that I can hear you ask?

    The positive amazon reviews.

    There are a few glowing comments that should be blended into the copy (and the product description on the amazon page isn't too shabby).
