How do I attract clients looking for sales letters?

Lady_T · 10-23-2009, 10:50 AM

Hi everyone,

Much of the talk is about article
marketing and Lord knows I do
my fair share of writing and submitting
articles.

But, as I've been building my own
mini businesses (thanks to the
Rhodes Brothers Zero Debt Program),
I've found that I truly enjoy writing
the sales copy.

I scaled things up and started creating
my own products to sell.

I started studying the masters and
began writing my own sales letters to
sell my stuff or to re-write PLR packages.

I really like it and I'd love to write for
others.

But how do you do it with no testimonials
and without giving away your niches.

I've only written for myself but now that
I'm got a steady stream of income coming
in, it would be fun to switch gears for a
while and do something else.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to
where to look for clients and how to start
fresh out the gate with no testimonials?

Any thoughts and ideas would be greatly
appreciated...

I think you just took the first step...

The next step would be to post an "introductory WSO" at a really good price. It might be a lot of work for little money at first but you will get testimonials that you can use over and over.

I'm sending you a PM

Personally, I would write 2-3 new stellar sales letters and use that as your social proof, then put up a really well crafted WSO, linking to those.

Your copy is "proof enough" for low to medium bids on this service (if it's good

)

For premiums, conversion stats are a must.

You could also do these for other people for free in exchange for a testimonial.

If you really want to make big bucks with salescopy you'll want to get off the WF after you've built some momentum. I've seen ridiculously low offers from very good copywriters here. I think you'd get more on Elance.com

Also, proof of conversions is huge. If you have actual converting STATS you're golden

I hadn't thought about creating some sales letters as social proof...that's a great idea and I appreciate that.

I was concerned about how people would perceive me if I didn't have testimonials but I see that running a WSO is the best way to grab good testimonials...provided people like what I do.
