Help! Final Pre-Launch Site Review!

All!
whew!
I thought--before I really got started in this endeavor--I would be launching this site in October 2011.

Wow. Was I WRONG!

I had NO idea how much time and effort goes into crafting a pitch page, membership site, etc. And this is my first one, so I'm sure it's still rough.

AS OF TODAY, Clickbank has given me the final approval to go LIVE! YAY!

So, prior to going live next week, Monday, I would like to get any last comments on ways to improve the pitch page.

I will be making a video to place on this site, but that will be another thread, I'm sure.

Any ideas on how to improve this site? Any glaring mistakes? Enquiring minds want to know!

      Hi Matt,

      Bravo, the page looks very professional and your content is good.

      I would make your main HEADLINE stand out more because I have the tendency to read your header instead of your main headline. I think that your headline is graphics and not text, so I would go back to Photoshop and give it a twist so that your headline has more impact. It`s the first thing that the visitors should see and read fast since they usually don't want to spend to much time on a site.

      It is your main headline "The Ideas Toolkit Offers..." that has the most influence in a sales page. Don't be afraid to change your headline and see what headline converts best.

      Also, powerful headlines usually contains numbers like: "I made $1356.57 my first week using Ideas Toolkit..."

    Thank you, opt in! Good suggestion. Seems I'll need to research writing a better title. I like your suggestion a lot, however I don't have any testimonials or factual statements that point to the whole package (yet.) I will add it to my to-do list!!

    Hello and congrats on sticking it out and getting your first product going!

    There are several little nitpick items, but nothing that I would really focus on or waste time with if I were you.

    One big thing that is easy and beneficial would be to get rid of the very top header bar where it says marketingideas101.com (above the logo). It's redundant, pushes everything else down the page, and just keeps the visitor from reading the headline that much faster.

    Great job Matt, site looks awesome and sales page reads really well. Looks like a well crafted product.

    My only slight criticism for me is that the water splash background is slightly distracting and takes some of the focus away from the actual copy itself.

    I would also make the titles for each of the books slightly clearer with bigger text in a different colour to make it stand out a bit more, as it is its slightly lost that you are getting so much content in the deal.

    Overall a great job though, be proud of what you have achieved.

    mgreener, good thought on the gray bar at the top. It came with the template and I was leaving it in because it was another opportunity to place the key phrases up there in the title, but from a conversion standpoint, you're absolutely right.

    Gary, thanks for the kudos. Resizing the product titles is a good thought. You're the second person who has commented on the water background. I'm going to have to do some testing on that, I guess. Maybe it would be better if the background moved so as the user read down the page, they wouldn't see the water anymore. hmm..

    Good suggestions, guys! Thank you!

    Very nice with a professional look, great job, one would never know it's your first one. Make sure to split test everything as you go for better conversions.
