Want a Web Site that Turns Lookie Loos into Buyers? Use the
"Passion Approach."
Web Site Blues?
Need one, don't know where to start?
Got one, but aren't getting enough sales?
If you need a Web site soon you may be wondering where to start
and who to trust. All Web masters are not equal. Some do not
know the marketing language—what I call "The Passion
Approach." You may need to start with a coach who helps you
pre-plan, create sales-pulling headlines, write your sales letter, and
how to connect them so all information leads to sales on your order
page.
If you already have a Web page, I'm sure you put your heart and
soul into it, even paid someone big money to put it up for you. Yet,
if your home page's copy speaks lackluster, then you may be ready
for a makeover. You may have submitted to the search engines
without receiving targeted hits and buyers either.
You only have 10 seconds to impress your "to be" buyer. Apply
these "passion approaches" for your refreshed home page:
1. Write dazzling home-page copy that grabs your visitors by the
collar.
Persuade them through benefit-driven headline. Just listing your
book, product, service, or ezine falls flat every time. Write copy
that compels your visitors to buy whatever it is you want to sell.
On my home page I have this statement at the very top to lead
visitors to my success story (sales letter) and the product Write
Your eBook or Other Short Book—Fast!: "Design every part of
your book to make it a great seller." I include a "click here"
immediately following.
For my Ten Non-techie Ways to Market Your Book Online
eBook, I use this benefit-driven headline: "Want a quick and simple
way to double, even quadruple your online book sales within two
months?" I include a "click here" that takes them to the sales letter.
This headline is indeed conservative, because my sales more than
quadrupled: they actually jumped 30 times in five months. At the
bottom of the letter I provide a link that says "Order Now" that
takes them to the products page. They may trust me enough at this
point to order. If they still aren't convinced to buy I offer a popup
that gives benefits and testimonials.
2. Get Testimonials from the Rich and Famous—To Catapult your
Sales.
Without these endorsements, people will wonder about the value of
your products. Another ho-hum because you didn't give them a
reason to buy. They trust other professionals who have taken the
time to laud your product or service. On my homepage, I even
include coaching testimonials, web page testimonials, article
testimonials, and ezine testimonials.
Dan Poynter, guru of self-publishing says this about my free
monthly ezine called The Book Coach Says: "This ezine is chock
full of useful information - totally worth your time."
Marcia Reynolds, past president of the International Coach
Federation and author of _How to Outsmart Your Brain_ and
_Capture The Rapture_ says this about my eBook:
"Save yourself from headaches, disappointments, and money down
the drain. Read _Write Your eBook or Other Short Book—Fast!_
before you write another word. Judy puts you on the fastest track
to publishing success."
Dan Poynter and Bob Goodman, Book designer and president of
the San Diego Publishers Alliance says this about _Ten Non-techie
Ways to Market Your Book Online_:
"_Ten Non-techie Ways to Market Your Book Online_ by Book
Coach Judy Cullins is chock full of tips, tools, and Online resources
(alone worth the price of the book). Follow Judy's success system
for writing and submitting articles to opt-in ezines, and creating
your own ezine aimed at a targeted audience to win sales by
building credibility, trust and continual contact."
--Dan Poynter, author of _The Self-Publishing Manual_

"This is a remarkable little book, full of proven techniques, great
suggestions, and useful references. Judy has put together what
deserves to be one of the basic resources for the industry. The best
part is that you can read the whole thing and be well on your way
to making it work in the time it would take you to get 2 or 3
chapters through someone else's book. I really like this book."

How many testimonials do you need? You need one for your ezine,
one for your product, and one for your service. Then, sprinkle
them throughout your other pages.
Remember, if you want to sell something on your Web site, you
must have a clear purpose, include headlines with marketing
pizzazz, a compelling sales letter or story, and testimonials that pull
sales.
