I request your eagle eyes

Hello to all the respected copywriters in here.

I am about to launch a WSO but I am an article writer, not a copywriter, and I would like to get some opinions on my simple sales page.
I KNOW it needs work but I am no expert which is why I would appreciate any honest CONstructive feedback anyone is willing to offer.

So here it is in all its primitive glory.

  • Hi Laurence,

    Here's a few points for you:

    Space it out more, don't center your body copy, and make your headline stand out more.

    The first two lines of your headline seem to be talking to different audiences. To me, the first is aimed at someone wanting to become a freelancer, while the second is aimed at someone already freelancing and wanting more work. You need to get clear on who you're targeting and then write the copy just for them.

    "job listings and other information" - This is all you're telling your reader about your product, expand on it, I'd want to know more about what I'm getting for my money.

    "This Report Is All You'll Ever Need" - Ken McCarthy advises going through your copy looking for any instances where your reader might say "so what?" or "bull****!". And this line is a definite "bull****!" line, if you're going to make a big claim you need big proof (but any proof at all would be a starting point).

    "You won't believe your eyes" - Same as above.

    "I could sell this for $100" - And again.

    "financial freedom" - Last one (this just comes out of the blue, it's quite a jump going from a list of links to "financial freedom" when you haven't built up to it at all).

    I don't follow the WSO forum anymore, but I'd bet the USD is still king and I'd stick with it, otherwise you're forcing people to find out what $7 AUD is in real money. (And if you're selling it for that on your site, it needs to be cheaper for a WSO).

    No guarantee?

    For me, your copy doesn't the question of "Why would I pay you for a list of links?". I know you say it's a time-saver, but if I'm looking for work, chances are I've got time, it's the money I don't want to waste.

    And keep in mind that although no-one reads long copy, everyone hates it, it's all a scam, etc., etc. - short copy's harder to write than long copy.

  • Thank you Andrew. You make some valid points. I am going to work on it right now and then replace the old version with a better one. I do appreciate the time you have taken to give me your expert opinion.

  • OK Andrew,

    Based on your comments, Here is a new version for anybody to see and hopefully give me some more feedback before I post it.

    So below is my new sales letter and I hope more people will give me some constructive feedback.






































  • OK. Please forget everything I have written in my crappy Sales letters.
    I decided to use an expert and Mark Andrews is indeed an expert.
    My WSO hopefully will soon be approved and then it will be available for buying.
    I will post here when it is available too.
