Happy New Year everyone!
I’ve been traveling for most of the past 6 weeks and haven’t been checking in here much. Fortunately Virginia’s been taking good care of everyone.
I’ll be spending as much time as needed in The Clubhouse this week so that everyone who posts a question gets a specific action / goal in place that will skyrocket their…Read more

How much testing of a page should be done before making adjustments?

hey john, and everybody…
im looking for good sales laters/campaigns in the weight loss niche, it can help me for some ideas to my new diet product.thanks.
p.s
sorry about my english, i working on that 🙂-
Hi Idan: I don’t think John has any weight loss letters. It is not difficult to find good ones, though. Just google “weight loss” and see what your competitors are doing. You should know what the big ones are if you are in that niche. It is a very difficult niche to enter, though. Lots of well-funded sharks that will say anything to make a…Read more

If you are just starting in the niche, you have to start off by finding out what the questions and pain points people have. Go to blogs, forums, yahoo answers, facebook groups and pages, etc. and get involved until you understand what they want.

OK. I misunderstood. One thing you can do is when you get the copy finished you can apply for a hot seat and John and Stan will review it for you and help you take it to the next level. I would also suggest that you take the Simple Writing System. It will teach you the exact steps that John uses when he writes his copy. It is definitely…Read more

Hi Idan – As you know, weight loss is an incredibly competitive niche. This means that ads that rank at the top of any paid traffic source for more than a very short time are almost certainly generating a profit.
First sale might not be profitable. First sale is often done at a loss once they’ve proven the lifetime value of the average customer…Read more

Hi, everyone. I’m excited to be here. I have a few websites and have done well with ads, CPMs, and affiliate products, but I’ve begun branching out into products related to my primary niche. (Survival/Prepping) I have a list of about 8k people on my blog and 9k on my site where I sell prepping courses. The first two rounds of selling a prepping…Read more

Hi Daisy: I would suggest that you apply for a hot seat. John and Stan can look over your current model and suggest ways to move forward. For engagement, if you are having success with Ben Settle’s plan, why change it?
For new products, have you looked to other people’s products for affiliate income?
-
Have you reached out to other sellers in the prepper niche to become affiliates of yours? You can set the product up on Clickbank or JVzoo fairly easily and they will take care of the payments.
-
Daisy, Do you have an Invite A Friend bonus or offer?
Survival / prep people have friends who are into that, too.
Is there something you can offer paying customers as bonus if they email an offer to their friends who might be interested?

So, I am on Lesson 18 and writing a first draft for our fitness studio. My wife is the face of the biz as she is a personal trainer. We are using her story. I noticed the story (#9) is first person and the USP can be either (I or We). Beginning the meat of the copy (#8, salesmanship) do I transition to just “We” since I am selling the biz and…Read more

I haven’t really thought about that, but you could introduce the “we” in her story (…So, I created (name of company) to help (whatever). Then start with “we” meaning the company). Or she could just stay with “I”. Did you check out other fitness gurus (there are quite a few) to see what they do?
Also, I’d suggest that after you have your copy…Read more

John Carlton’s Best Ads: Butt-Ugly Golf
I've written something like 4,000 direct mail letters and direct response ads for golf products now. Okay, that's a bit of an exaggeration, but not much. Sometimes, the best ads come from sheer desperation. I was hitting the very bottom of my bag of tricks last year,...
