UPDATE!

Insane Home Six Pack - Get Ripped Abs Now

All I have left to do is make a new video that will play when someone visits the page.

The video will be about 90 seconds long and I will talk a little about the program in the video.

All of my traffic will be coming from my channel on YouTube.

From your experience what do you think the conversion rate for this page might be if I get 3,000 people to visit it per month?

How does the layout itself look?

Thank you for your opinions I appreciate it

    My first impression is that I can get this same information from Google. In fact, I did and have had six pack abs for two years. I didn't buy a book, I just followed the advice from a few articles on bodybuilding.com.

    Of course, not everyone knows this or can get the same results, but there's a reason I never bought one of these products. The information is already out there for free. To get people to pay you for this, you need a positioning strategy.

    What's the one reason you can tell the reader "You will NOT find this information anywhere on the internet because (reason here)?"

    This is the MOST important question to answer, especially since (I'm assuming), you're not planning on hiring a professional to create your landing page.

    Check out Kyle Leon's customized fat loss or Muscle Maximizer program. His unique positioning is the customization based on the person's body type. That's an oversimplification of course, but if you watch his videos you'll see the way he positions it as something you can't find ANYWHERE else.

    That's what you need in this hypercompetitive niche.

      Seth, I agree with your LOGIC, but experience shows differently. There
      are many products like this on ClickBank that do very well. I guess
      you are more informed than the target audience. I've found many stuff
      for sale online that could be had for free, but I guess those who buy
      just don't know about these resources.

      I'm not a big exerciser, but I just bought some dumb bells and
      do some curls and some situps as well and the results are not
      that bad. I'm not in his target market and more likely to use
      a website like bodybuilding.com than buy a product.

        What is your impression of how the site is set up? This is a rough draft so everything will be in higher quality too.

        I also added "what makes the program different" at the bottom. Should I place that before what the program includes? Or does it not matter?

        Thank you very much.

        That's an interesting point Ray, I am quite a fanatic lol.

        Then again, I have bought books on muscle building because I couldn't find the information anywhere else, and in those cases I was willing to pay quite a bit more than the average person would BECAUSE I knew the value of the information.

        It really comes down to your target market....in which case, if you're not going to appeal to the fanatics, maybe "six packs for newbies" needs to be part of your positioning strategy.

      Thanks bro it means a lot.

      Can I have what makes my program different in the introduction video?

      As far as the layout and positioning on the website goes, does it look professional?

      I will change the font and image quality to higher resolution this is my rough draft.

    The good news is, you're going to use Youtube which can be a KILLER way to get traffic in this niche.

    Heck, over time... your youtube channel alone could do most of your selling for you... since you're entering a very VISUAL niche.

    So, if you're willing to put in a lot of time and effort on your informational/instructional videos on Youtube... you won't need the world's best or most polished web page to sell.

    Again, you'll be able to do a lot of preselling with your Youtube channel.

    BUT... with that said, your current page won't really do much for you.

    Even a guy like Mike Chang, who gets millions upon millions of Youtube
    views... at one point had a 20 page written sales letter a few years ago.

    Here's what he has now...

    How To Get A Six Pack Abs - Six Pack Shortcuts

    so, as you can see.... there's a lot of good copy and graphics on that page.

    so, you definitely don't have enough persuasive copy on your page right now.

    Back when I owned my fitness business... I sold an abs program that was
    fairly successful. It did six figures, but only because I was one of the
    few in that niche online.

    These days, it's a whole new ballgame because of how competitive it is...
    you're going against competition who have multi-million dollars businesses...
    so they can crush most competitors just by traffic and affiliates alone.

    I'm all for competition... but maybe you approach this project on the
    fringes... and work some of the keywords in this market that get
    a lot of searches, but there isn't a ton of competition.

    This as a few years ago, when I was doing some keyword research... but
    the subniche of "belly fat loss" was hugely popular in terms of searches, but
    little competition.

    that may have changed a bit today, but you may find success in a subniche
    of the abs market as well.

    But study mike geary, mike chang, and like Seth said, Kyle Leon and even
    Tom Venuto and you'll see what it takes to really make it in this niche.

      Thank you very much for your valuable opinion.

      On YouTube my fitness channel gets about 4k views a day.

      So out of 120k of views on YouTube per month, at least 2k (very low estimate) visit my site because I will post the link under my videos to the site.

      Do you see this page converting at least 1-2%? That is when I make all the graphics higher quality and polish it better while keeping the same order of format?

      Will having a long sales page hurt my conversion? Because all of my traffic will come from my Youtube channel. They already know about me so I dont want to bore them. What is your take on this?

    Couple quick things I noticed:

    Most would probably wonder how long all this takes. 30 days, 60, 90? I don't think just saying a person can go from that to this without any time frame is very convincing.

    Your program uses dumbbells...you might want to mention that quicker.

    Also your before and after pics don't have any time frame. Who knows if a year or two separates the two pics?

    I remember when Mike Mentzer came out with his HIT program way back when. There was a lot of controversy surrounding it. Maybe you could give some more scientific evidence as to why your HIT system works.

    One thing (more) I can say about your before/after picture is that
    ii is REALISTIC. You look "normal" and not like a muscle-man.
    I think that this makes your message authentic--like from a 'real'
    person. Most before/after pics from the product creator have the after
    looking like Mr. Universe, which make people think, "There's no
    way I can get that ripped!" (At least that's my interpretation.)

    I know in selling you want to make your goals reachable for
    the prospect otherwise you lose credibility.

      I see you are going into the product pitch way too soon.

      If you can bring in the drama of a story of
      how bad life was before and that one bad day which tipped you over the edge.

      Something like after getting pushed around by other guys,
      but one day hearing a group of girls saying...

      "I'd never go out with that guy Mak,
      he's such a skinny weasel!"

      And the girls roar out laughing.The drama of humiliation was what did it.

      Then you set out to build a real man's body.

      But you couldn't find the answers.

      Everything seemed flawed.

      Then you discovered how a genetically average guy can build lean muscle without...

      X
      X
      X
      X

      Can you come up with a raw story of your life like it?

      Then why all the existing methods have faults for a person like you?

      Best,
      Ewen

        Can I do my story in a video which Im still working on?

        Say how after my surgery I gained weight an no method helped until I figured out a method that worked for me.

        Then talk about the 12 week program a little bit in the last part of the video?

        Most of my traffic will come from my YouTube video so how would you predict my page might convert?

          What's the purpose of your video,
          inform or get em to buy your training?

          Yeah surgery would be good
          if you can bring out how that messed up with your physical
          and emotional well-being.

          I used a surgery approach for a personal trainer.

          His greatest success story was a women who used to be
          an aerobics trainer herself who had surgery,
          ballooned out and spiralled downhill.

          She became his greatest supporter because of him bringing
          her back to a person who could actually start feeling good about herself again.

            Thanks bro.

            I want to start off by talking about how I had surgery and then became depressed and very frustrated. Untill one day I decided to mix cardio with dumbbells while working out at home. After just 12 weeks I got back into shape.

            Then I will talk a little bit about the program. I will say how long it is and equipment required.

            How does that sound? I will also add a testimonial under my first pic.

              Stop. NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOU. They care about themselves. What's in it for them?

              They see your entire page as designed to reach into their pocket and grab their credit card. You reveal too much too soon.

              Besides that, your page and current video are boring us to death.

              Get us excited. Get us motivated to finally make a decision to change our lives. Open our eyes to all the possibilities an INSANE set of six pack abs provides. Create a scenario the viewer can see themselves stepping into.

              Make us want it.

              "As soon as tomorrow, when you look in the mirror, you'll start to notice a change. Go ahead and pull out your smartphone and take a picture. I did. It wasn't much right after my surgery, but *I* noticed it. And look where I am today.

              And now, you have the opportunity to experience the same (or even better) results.

              As each day goes by, you'll chisel away more and more of that stubborn, ugly, embarrassing belly fat. Revealing defined muscles women adore.

              In fact, did you know women agree a rock hard, sculpted six pack is the most attractive feature on a guy?

              It's true... A stream of second looks and double takes by women are about to become reality for you. Women can't help but want to reach out and touch them.

              Can you say 'irresistible'? Because that's what you'll be. That's WHO you'll be."

              Stop screwing around and give us emotionally-charged reasons, possibilities, experiences an insane six pack provides.

    I'm not by any means a copywriting expert, and I see a lots of good examples in here but I think people are missing the REAL problem here. You were ripped off, the opt-in rate of your squeeze page has nothing to do with the copy you wrote. Your target market are women with belly fat, it is Obvious that the clicks sent to your squeeze page weren't women with fat bellies. The Solo ad vendor must have seen your squeeze page they knew what kind of clicks you wanted.

    Smarter heads can correct me, but is it legal to scratch out a higher price and show a discounted price ($47 is scratched with $17 as the price) if you've never sold products at the higher price? My understanding is that this is a new product just being releases. Just sayin'.
