Update on my Progress

by Helping Dad
6 replies
Hello All

I wanted to give a progress update. Since my last post I have started a Facebook page for my Dad & I have been able to grow it to 3340 friends of people who are like him.
We have created a free eBook and are offering it through his FB page in order to accumulate their emails. I set up aweber auto responder account and we have about 450 downloads. My Dad is going to start advertising for the free ebook on his radio shows.
We have identified what are first promotion. It includes about five items with a retail value of $104.00 & we are going to offer it for $48.00. Our plan is to start promoting it Mid November for the Christmas Rush.
My next obstacle is to come up with a good Sale Copy. Any recommendations? I been reading that the sales copy could make or break a promotion. I would love any feedback anyone could give.
Thanks
Helping Dad

    If you think you are not a great copywriter then maybe it would be worth getting the sales page written. However, I think copywriters don't come cheap. You may want to check out the Warriors for hire thread here on the forum to see if there is anyone there who is advertising that service and if so, what they charge. Hope this helps and good luck with your project.

    Thanks Francof... It's actually been very fun. This is a industry prior to my first post I knew very little. I just need to get past this sales copy part.
