How the heck did this ugly sales page convert.
So it doesn’t have to do with looking professional. It has to do with certain actual aspects that you have to pay heed to when writing a sales letter.
So the first thing is engagement. If you don’t grab their attention after a period of 4sec on landing on your sales page they will just bounce off and they go back to where ever they came from.
2. Why should they pay attention.
Now, after engaging them, you have to bring them in. You have to make sure they stay on your sales page to see what you have to offer.
And a way to make sure they stick to your sales page is that you keep them engage, keep them under toes, you are not just talking, mix your write up with text animations, surprise them, and the best way to keep them engaged is actually by telling a story.
And when you can create that in your sales copy. People will stay on your sales page.
The story should be of how you came from seeing the problem to finding your solution, and your solution has to be your product.
3. The Pitch
This is the next part of a sales letter that got to turn people from viewers or visitors into customers. And how do you get to do that.
Well, hopefully through your story you position yourself as an EXPERT because they saw your transformation.
Also, what you should have done is actually showing them how your story relate a lot to them.
Because if they can see their self in your eyes they will see your story, how you transform and they will know that when they buy your product they can have that same transformation.
So beside that kind of stuff, you have to tell them that they will pay for it. So maybe your product cost $100. What you should do next is to show the real VALUE in it.
4. The Value
Let say your product is for burning stubborn belly fats. So instead for them to go to a personal trainer and pay $150 or more and having to do that every single day just to loose belly fat.
They should option for your product which may be a personal video training session every single week.
So there is a lot of things that you can do to increase value and reduce the cost prize, so that they will be like Wow, that is a no brainer to buy.
Besides that what else do you want to do?
5. The Experience
You can also tell them what to expect if they buy your product, kind off shift their mindset.
So they know how it feels after they purchase your product. It is going to be like the kind of feeling or all the things they will feel (like an experience when they by your stubborn belly fat product).
6. Scarcity
The next thing to put into consideration when writing your sales copy is Scarcity. Well, Scarcity for digital products doesn’t always exist.
Like why will a digital product run out of stock when there is non inventory.
But then, you can induce Scarcity if you are willing to actually close the sales at one point.
So maybe you are running a membership program. You can say:
You only need 100 people in because you are doing something special with them or doing a live session with them every single week.
Things like that, that have actually scarcity, you can add it to your sales letter.
7. Urgency
Another thing to put into consideration is Urgency. You can create urgency in a lot of different ways.
One way is not really having a real urgent matter. It just by saying
If you don’t take action, your life might pass you by, you might have that stubborn bellyfat for years, and maybe you may stumble upon this website to buy later and then you will finally found solution but that it has taken you so long and many things have happen that time and you were not able to live the life you love to.

- Persuasive sales letter examples
- Sales letter format
- Examples of sales letter for product
- Sample sales letter to prospects
- How to write sales letter

And you will see a lot of different headlines that you can see that really works and that is going to give you a good idea.
And another great way to spy on your competitors is by going to Clickbank or any marketplace. Find in your niche, the top 3 products of your competitors, watch what they are doing, take note, see how they keep people engage, see how there headline is, see if it a video, if it a long sales page. Just see how they make you want to buy.
Because if we don’t always see we don’t always realize why we want to buy things. So go ahead check out your competitors it is a great way to learn how to write sales letters that sell.
