1) ASK QUESTIONS YOUR TARGET PROSPECT CAN ANSWER "YES" TO Asking questions in your sales letter is a powerful way to truly engage your readers. It creates a need for an answer, and separates buyers from uninterested.
Of course some believe that by asking questions you run risk of someone responding "no", and therefore, they won’t read your sales letter. While this is true, if you ask right questions, you’re deeply engaging those that are interested. And those that stop reading weren’t going to buy anyway.
Here’s how it works…
By reading this article, I know that you are interested in increasing response of your sales letter. And understanding this, if I created a product that offered to teach you these techniques, I would ask certain questions that would keep you interested.
For instance…
"Do you want to learn a simple technique that takes less than 2 ½ minutes of work, but will instantly double response of any sales letter you apply it to?"
"Would you like to learn 3 words you can add to your headline that will guarantee everyone will read your sales letter? I’ll reveal answer within this letter".
Those interested in learning these techniques will keep reading to find out answers. And those that don’t keep reading aren’t interested in my product anyway, and no amount of selling will get them hungry for something they simply don’t want.
2) GUARANTEE EVERY BENEFIT YOUR PRODUCT HAS
Your guarantee is a powerful way to make prospects believe in you and your offer.
But it’s not enough to say you guarantee their satisfaction. Instead, spell out each strong benefit your product offers, and then guarantee it.
"Order now and you’re guaranteed to lose 14 pounds in next 21 days, you’re guaranteed to start feeling energized from first day you use this product, and you’re guaranteed to find this is easiest way to lose weight because you’ll no longer crave foods that harm you. So, if you don’t lose at least 14 pounds in 3 weeks … if you don’t feel a super surge of energy starting on first day … or if you don’t find this product makes losing weight as easy as lying down, worry not. Simply return any unused portion and you’ll receive a full refund."
