Re: Something sucks! Is it my copy? Layout? Offer???

Re: Anyone else use this free tool to help find mistakes in your copy?

I totally get how this can help. I use another program "Audacity" and record it myself then listen to the play back to catch mistakes.

Re: They watch the sales video but don't click the buy button

Tim and Sean are right on the money. You have one option, start over. Small edits won't take this VSL to where it needs to be and where you want it to be.
