Who can I pay for a VSL copy critique?

by Cool Hand Luke

So I've got a video sales letter script for a new fitness guide which I *think* is solid....

Yet the problem is that I'm so close to it, and have spent so much time with it, that I really think an outside perspective is needed to make sure I'm on track before moving forward with video production.

I'm not going to post it on an open forum for privacy reasons, so I have to ask: Can you recommend a VSL copywriter who does critiques, either free or paid?

It would be a huge bonus if they were in the fitness niche too.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions you can offer.

    Hit up David Deutsch. He gives a mean critique.

    Luke, you've been around here long enough to know who to reach out to.

    But knowing your rep...

    Test the copy first. I'm sure it's worthy of some traffic being thrown at it.

    Then...

    If it doesn't convert at the level you want or expected, you'll have data to bring into the conversation when you get the copy critiqued.

    Don't even tell the copywriter you hire the numbers it drew (right away.) Reveal those number AFTER the copywriter gives you his or her feedback.

      Thanks Sean, David is undoubtedly out of my budget for a critique but seeing his page just reminded me to review his swipe file which I haven't seen in a while and I always glom some solid insight from.. Cheers.

      True, I'm 90-95% sure it's solid and going to work out well, but you're right; I just need to do an ugly-style VSL and send a few thousand qualified leads it's way.

      Thanks Dave and btw LOVE the new IID whiteboard video, I think it'll work out really well for you.

      Thanks Mark, and yeah, you're right; it really is at the testing phase by now. I like your idea about getting some numbers before asking for a critique too.

      Cheers for the insight fellas.
