How To Presell A Free Trial

12 years ago

I mean no disrespect, but for starters you could change the word trail to trial. You are referring to a free trial, correct, and not a trail leading them somewhere?

I was going to say the same thing. Your number one requirement is to make sure you spell everything right. It might be a good idea to have someone proofread your copy when you are done making your draft.

Benefits and features of the service. Stuff like not having to buy the DVDs, the length of time members can keep the DVD, small or no shipping charge, etc. These are all features. Benefits would focus more on the great feeling you have knowing you can dial up a movie and have it delivered the following day or whatever. Pride in knowing you have a massive library of flicks at your disposal. Feeling special because you're the first person in the PTA to get hooked up with this great new service... Stuff like dat.

Features are positive aspects of a product or service. Benefits most often relate the emotions or feelings you get from the product or service.

You should know best about the features of what you're selling. The benefits sometimes take a little creativity to flesh out.

Eduguate, I do not understand the context in which you have used the word 'trail,' Like the other two have pointed out, that word should read as 'trial.'

Neflix is a company that enables subscribers to watch TV or movies online.

Anything that you do to create trust in a prospect is preselling. I would rather give away something cheaper to presell. I would then sell my product later.Preselling makes the actual selling easy.

When a young man meets a young lady he is interested in for the first time, he has to be cautious. If he asks for a hand in marriage there and then the answer will be a resounding NO. How does a decent lady agree to be married to somebody she hardly knows?

To get what he wants a young man should treat the young lady kindly. Pick her purse if it falls down. Help her fix a spare wheel. Be helpful for sometime. He then launches his request. By so doing he will have presold himself.

Features and benefits help. Benefits are the ADVANTAGES or USEFUL things a product offers. Features are RAW FACTS about a product. Combined with rationalizations, features can be effective in clinching sales. It is from features that we skillfully create benefits.
