Default Computer Geek Spills The Beans: A Billion Dollar Company Research Uncovered...

Hi,

Do you own a website or blog? If so, this might be one of the most important messages you will ever read. Here’s why…

I want to be completely honest with you here… I don’t know what your website is about, I don’t know where the traffic to your website comes from and I don’t know how you make money from your website.

But even without knowing all that I bet that from every 100 visitors that arrive to your website, at least 70 of them leave without buying anything and without leaving their email address. Isn’t it?

And even though I might not know a lot about your website or business, I bet I can give you something that will make at least a few of your visitors change their mind and reconsider what you have to offer them. This sounds good, right?

But first, let me tell you a short story …

how I accidentally stumbled upon a billion company research that led to this

I write computer programs for a living. In the past 15 years, I’ve written well over a million lines of computer code in hundreds of different programs. If printed on paper, the resulting pile would be about 2,5 meters high. But anyway, I digress…

No more than a week ago I was writing an email to a customer. I use Gmail, and had this email almost ready to be sent, just one or two more details to check in another browser tab. At that time, by accident instead of clicking on the other tab I wanted to go I managed to hit that small x in the window that had my unsent email. Email that I spent nearly half an hour to write.

Only it didn’t close. On my screen there was a small box that read “Your message hasn’t been sent yet. Are you sure you want to close this page?”

As I was staring at that tiny box realizing what just happened, and thinking on how Google spent all this money on research hiring the brightest minds just so I don't stupidly lose my work, I had my a-ha moment.

What if I could figure out how this technology worked, and apply it to my websites?

Each time a visitor would try to leave my site without buying anything and without leaving his email address this would give me one more chance to offer him something of value to make him part with his email address. Or his money. Or both.

Fast forward a week and endless hours spent searching the Internet, knowledge databases, web standards, coding and experimenting, and this morning it all came together. Only better…

Remember that bet I was about to make you?

I bet I can improve your online business even though I don’t know much about it because…

Exit Offer Pro gives you the chance to grab back your visitors attention just as they are about to leave your website.

Those otherwise lost visitors, if they close their browser window while on your site, or try to type a different address in the browser bar...

... you now can – and should – make one three last attempts at presenting your offer or getting your message through, or getting their email address so you can follow up later.

What can you ask them to do in that very moment they are about to leave is up to you. Remember, still I don’t know much about your website or business. Here are some ideas though, to get you going:

ØYou can offer an e-book in exchange for their name and email address.


ØYou can downsell them by offering a one time discount on your main product.


ØYou can offer an audio recording in exchange for their name and email address.


ØIf your main product is an e-book, you can give them the first chapter for free in exchange for their name and email address.

And so on… The possibilities here are endless, but the bottom line is…

… these are visitors that for one reason or another would’ve been gone out of your site with no email address, and no other way to get them to do anything.

Once a visitor tries to leave your site Exit Offer Pro gives you 3 (three) more chances to get your message across:

  • A message shown in a confirmation box right in the middle of their screen. And they have to click one button before they can close the browser window, and your message is just above this button. Talk about getting the message across...

    You’ll want them to click on the CANCEL button. Keep reading, you’re about to find out why…
  • They also see a full blown web page with audio, video, flash or anything else you can think of that is automatically displayed behind this confirmation box whenever they try to close their browser window.

    You can use images, audio, video, flash movies or anything else in this page to catch the visitor attention. And you tell them to click on the CANCEL button.

    At this step, all you want your visitor to do is click on the CANCEL button in that confirmation box that popped up.

    Here’s why…
  • If the visitor clicks on the CANCEL button in this confirmation box, what they did is they have actually told their browser “hold on, I changed my mind. I want to stay here on this site just a bit longer.” And that was exactly what you wanted, wasn’t it?

    Exit Offer Pro knows when they clicked this CANCEL button, and will show them yet another full page, your third chance to make your last pitch.

To see Exit Offer Pro in action, all you have to do is go to

Exit Offer Pro - Proof of Concept

It will only take a minute of your time. Do it now. I’ll wait…

Done? Great, now it’s time to install Exit Offer Pro on your own site and grab those leaving visitors back.

It’s very easy. You don’t need to know HTML, or JavaScript or anything techie for that matter, I did that part for you. All you have to do is fill in the blanks using the point and click offer builder I’ve included in the package.

I’ve tested and found it working properly in FireFox 2.0 and 3.0, and Internet Explorer 6 and 7. Also, it worked well on Linux hosted websites as well as Windows hosted websites.

Now, about the price…

I’m not much of a businessman, I write computer programs. So I’ll keep this part short and to the point.

I’ve just finished this program today. In a few days from now, as time permits, I will start selling it from my own site. But before I can do that, I’ll have to shoot some videos, write the sales letter, get some graphics done, write an autoresponder series, install payment processing software, affiliate software… It’s quite a bit of work, and to be completely honest I really don’t have the time right now.

So, instead of letting it collect dust on my hard drive until then, and as a way to give back to the warriors I owe so much I’ve decided to offer it as a WSO for just $27.





That’s exactly 42,55% cheaper than the full price I intend to sell it for.


About the guarantee:
If the software doesn’t work for you, I’d love to be given a chance to fix it. However if at any time in the next 180 days you decide, for any reason or no reason at all, that it hasn’t made back your investment and some more I’ll gladly and promptly give you back every penny you have paid for it.

P.S.: Once the sales page is up and everything else is ready, which will happen anywhere from a few days from now to a week or two – as my time permits – this WSO will be deleted.

P.P.S.: You can use Exit Offer Pro on all the websites that YOU own, including any you might flip. If you’re a web designer you can’t install it on your clients’ sites. Also, you’re not allowed to distribute the point and click Builder. That is for your own use only.

THIS WORKS!

I just tried to leave a site that is obviously using this exact same program... I clicked the x to close the browser window and saw a popup - and a voice said "To see a special offer, click cancel"... so I clicked "cancel" and subscribed to a freebie. Now they have me on their list... and I would never have signed up for the freebie if it hadn't been for the voice telling me to click cancel to see a special offer.

I was just thinking how clever that was, and wondering how they did it... and 30 minutes later I stumbled across this WSO.

I purchased it IMMEDIATELY. I mean, if it worked on me, I KNOW it will work on my visitors.

Good concept.

If I ever make a website I'll definitely purchase this.

there are lots of exit popups around and I can't see anything new or unique with yours, so why would I buy this one?

Scorpio9, that's an excellent question.

And I'll do my best to give you a very good answer.

The exit popup concept is certainly not new. It's been around for ages in one form or another. Only before it wasn't this effective. Here's why...

The most used exit popups out there use your mouse position to try and figure out when your visitors leave your site.

However, because of technology limitations back then...
... and we're talking about 3 years if not older old technology...
... it doesn't really know if the visitor would actually be leaving your site. If you move your mouse out of the browser window it would pop.

And this is quite annoying, and doesn't actually block the closing. If the visitor clicks that x, they're gone.

Exit Offer Pro on the other hand doesn't have to try, or guess...

... because it knows for sure the visitor tried to close the browser, or navigate away from your site. And it blocks them dead right there.

It shows an unblockable and unavoidable confirmation box right in the middle of the user screen only when they already closed the browser. With a message you write. And behind this confirmation box there's a full blown page you create, which can contain text, images, video or audio passing your message, grabbing their attention.

And they have to click a button in this window to actually close the browser. It doesn't close until they click this window, and until they do they see both your message in this confirmation box AND the page behind it.

Fair disclosure:
As I was looking around for other products that implement these very same advanced techniques as Exit Offer Pro does, I've come across one or two that looked to be quite close. With one or three minor differences:
- They aren't able to show the visitor a custom full blown page with video, audio and what not behind this exit confirmation...
- They don't give you the ability to display a different page once the visitor decides to stay a bit longer, so you can downsell, or offer them a freebie or what not...
- ... And they cost on average about $40 more than Exit Offer Pro does.

Hope this answers your question, but if not feel free to shoot me a PM.

Now I see where your'e coming from, Yes, I agree some of the current exit popups are F"^#~*G annoying when you have no interest in what they are selling. t'was a great aha moment you had

Here's a thought; on the dialog box you have the text
"Press OK to continue or Cancel to stay on the current page"
would it make more sense to change it to read
"Press Cancel to stay on the current page or OK to continue"

because Press Cancel will register in the viewer's mind first, maybe even switch the buttons around (but that might be a bit too sneaky, hehehe!)

good luck

Indeed that is a very good idea. Only if it weren't for the limitation of the technology, the way browsers are designed to work...

... to prevent abuse, the browser creators don't allow us to change this dialogue box too much. It is hardcoded, embedded in their programming code.

The best we're allowed to do is add our own message to their predefined behavior, and text, and that's exactly what Exit Offer Pro does.

Catalin,

Can I set it up to work on single posts within a
WordPress blog? (or any specific pages in a WP
blog)?

Thanks,
Brian

I'm interested in the answer to this as well. I'm looking for this exact function for my WP blogs, but all I can find are the messages that appear in the main window, not like a separate pop-up box (if you know what I mean?).

Thanks!

Yes, it is possible to set Exit Offer Pro to work on a single page in a blog. If needed, I can provide the step by step solution as part of the customer support.

Sincerely,
