OptimizePress vs. Hiring A Designer

7 replies
Okay so I'm going to be doing my first ever launch soon, and I've been wondering whether it's okay to just go with OptimizePress.

I know OptimizePress sites look "nice" or whatever, but the problem is, there just doesn't seem to be enough differentation in the templates.

It seems like every marketer and his cat has that ubiquitous OptimizePress squeeze page now. I'm concerned that having this page would make my stuff look the same as basically everyone else's.

What do you guys think?

    I think there are so many marketing features within Optimisepress for the price, that it is a good option. I am of the opinion that if the leaders are using a tool, it is worth using it too.

      If you are just starting out, OptimizePress is a good option because it'll take care of the design aspect of your project (at least initially) and allow you to focus on other areas of building your business.

      Once you get the ball rolling, you may want to outsource some designing but I find OptimizePress to be quite adequate for beginner to intermediate levels. When the income is steady then you might want to differentiate yourself from the rest by customizing your designs further.

      That's a great piece of advice.

    Depends on your niche. If its IM, then yes, valid point, many have seen it. For just about anything else, I think optimizepress is fine.

    Dont worry about that soo much, its after all a lead capture page.

    Worry about the content user gets inside after signing up.

    Are you providing the same stuff every marketer and his cat?

    For the first time... just use OptimizePress. It's more than enough... And focus more to the content and the sales letter.

    optimize press is awesome!!! Allows you to create all that you need. Squeeze page, thank you page, product page, the list goes on forever and when you get good at it. It takes no time at all to add all of the little things. Don't get me wrong though.. You can have one up in a night if you have no idea how to use it. follow the videos and off you go. IT may not be as top of the line as a designer but man, I would have spent so many useless dollars on things I didn't need when I first started out.
    Instead I just played around and would say it got me more involved in the business side of things.
