Sales Letter Typos & Critique

14 replies
I just completed a sales letter and would love to have it checked for typos as it is amazing how often you can miss your own typos!

I would also welcome all critiques as I am sending this out to businesses in my community and you know how a prophet is never loved in his own country...and since I am no prophet I know that I only have one chance to get it right as there'll be no second chance to make a first impression.

This is the site: St. Lucia Travel Dollars

    I haven't looked at the sales letter yet - I will in a minute - but you have the coolest screen name ever.

                  Hey Shay...You Rock!...No pun intended.

                  Thank You Very Much

                  The way you are going is just fine and I am most appreciative.

                  This is my 1st attempt at using a sales letter and I am a bit apprehensive because my target audience is rather small and many of the people who I will email either know me or know of me. Plus living in a small community can be like living in Peyton Place so this will either fly if presented well or lanquish if it doesn't hit the sweet spot.

                  I will be getting testimonials shortly and they will go in the space that says "Testimonials Here"

                  I also have a concern about whether or not I have listed too many benefits and might bore my prospects with the overkill

                  Being 4 hrs ahead of me places you at 0GMT so are you in the UK?

                  I'm off to bed now, but look forward to your comments

                  Best Rgds,

                  Kirk

    Okay, it looks like Shay has the proofreading covered so I'll leave it in her capable hands. I just wanted to agree about your screen name and say that I never noticed what was below Shay's name until now!

      Shay's response piqued my curiosity and made me look. Funny thing is in my mind's eye I see her in uniform too!

    OMG,

    I stumbled upon some Trekkies (hope I spelled it correctly). Hope you saw Heidi Klums pic at the premiere? Capt., I took a look and read halfway didn't see anything to that point (limited focus tonight). Anyway, nice looking site, excellent idea, "Good Luck"
