    This is weak. Could be a lot better - "Discover Your Life Passion And Live With Purpose"

    Here's a quote for you from
    Henry David Thoreau, "Most men live a life of quiet desperation".Maybe the headline would be better with something like that? Spin it into

    First thing that struck me: why is the word tired underlined?

    Comments taken on board Copy Warriors! Awesome, awesome feedback. I've made changes to my opt-in and sales pages to reflect the following points:

    1. Yes, I used I A LOT. That's not good. It's all about the prospect and the problems they are facing and what they can do to solve them, which is buy my product. Thanks Mark.

    2. Weak headline on both opt-in and sales page. Doesn't capture the attention of the prospect OR paint the picture of the benefits for the prospect. Changed both. You can see the revised headlines here. One will look VERY familiar. Thanks Metro.

    [edit] <-- closed, Thanks All!

    3. Removed the word tired altogether from the pre-headline. That's not exactly the first state of mind I want to plant in my prospect is it? Thanks Peter.

    A couple more changes I made:

    1. Made it very clear to the prospect what I wanted from them, which is to enter their details into the form. Made it very clear to the prospect what will happen next, which is them being taken to the sales page where they will find out how to turn their life around. Added a continuity from optin headline to sales pre-headline. This is to eliminate the potential misunderstanding that the solutions are found in the free reports.

    2. Rewrote the headlines of my chapters to all be ' The # ___ to (insert benefit here)' and adjusted the benefit bullets on my sales page accordingly. This is one thing that I picked up in my article/blog post writing - this powerful headline format increases clicks by A LOT. Probably basic to anyone with any experience in article writing/marketing but I'll just state the obvious because it wasn't obvious to me at the start.

    Again, thanks for all your help so far, you guys seriously ROCK.

    Again, I'd like to invite you to SHOOT DOWN my sales page. Don't pull any punches people.

    I'll be putting a post in the main forum to remind people like me who are starting out about the tremendous feedback that they can get by inviting others to critique their site.

      Just a small typo you didn't catch. "discover your purposein..." There's a space between purpose in.

    I think your biggest problem is your whole approach.

    I understand what you're selling... kind of... but I don't care.

    You need to clarify your USP... and figure out what it is your market REALLY wants.

    Energy, enjoyment, and excitement? Buzzwords that don't mean a terrible lot.

    Figure out what your market really care about... and talk about that.

      A few visual things...

      The cute girl you use as your iconic image is cute and all, but she doesn't exactly reek of passion or purpose. Maybe some kind of social celebratory scene would be more apt.

      Your own photo should be taken with you facing the other way. This way your eyes and posture leads the reader into the first sentence.

      On your opt in page....

      Shorten those paragraphs for readability. The first sale is to sell people on reading your page. You do this by making it look like an easy read.

      Hope this helps,

      Ross

      Completely revamped sales page. Compare them /index1.html (new) and /index1backup.html (old) and let me know your thoughts as to which is better.

      Ross: Flipped the photo to face the other way. Other comments taken on board.

      Bizzy & Daniel: Adopted a different approach as recommended. Your thoughts?

      Thanks for all the contributions so far. Really appreciating it!
