I desperately want to launch a freelance career and having not done the Freelance course it seems like that is the next step.
I’m thrilled to be part…Read more

Hi All,
I’m working on a plan to create advertorials to pre-sale various affiliate products, starting with health & fitness products for people in their 40s.
I’ve never used the content referral networks before. Can anyone offer some first hand advice?
Step 1: Create the ad that goes in the content recommendation networks like Yahoo Gemini &…Read more

Hi Joe: I’m not familiar with the content referral networks, but there is one question I can answer. You should create your FB ads using the ads manager or power editor. Boost post is kind of a shortcut and you don’t have the targeting that you have using the other methods. I created a series of videos on FB advertising this past spring, which giv…Read more

FYI…the videos are under Get More Prospects/Social Media

I have a website that has a number of information products; folks can download these ebooks directly from my website. However, as is usual, if I use this product page as my sales page, there is a lot of site navigation at the top that may distract…Read more

In case it’s not clear from the above, the question I have is should I make a standalone sales page for each product, or can my sales page be my existing product page (with copy revamped)?
Thanks.

Can you post the link? This might be one of those things we need to see.
Most of the reports I see do not claim a big drop-off in conversions based on menu options at the top of the page.
Just don’t make the too much of a distraction.
Most important will be the once someone has scrolled past the menu and are into the sales copy, there should…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,...

John Carlton’s Best Ads: The Financial Bloodbath Caused By Criminal Scum
Gary Halbert gets credit for the headline and concept on this one. I was working with him at the time, in the last days of the Reagan presidency, when the financial markets -- and especially the precious metals markets -- were causing investors migraines. Banks were...
John Carlton’s Best Ads: The Nearly-Crippled Businessman
Here is an early self-defense letter, which struck a major nerve in the customer base for this market. It's run every year for the last decade in the major magazines and mailed even more often to hotlists. The appeal is simple and to the point: This is hard-core...
Way to go, Chris! Congratulations!
Thank you Virginia!
Congrats. We LOVE to see these kinds of reports back on results. It reminds folks about what’s at stake, and how great it feels to nail a successful gig.
Keep it going, Chris…
Thank you John! I’m looking forward to reporting on more wildly successful gigs.
…And we love when the guru shows he gives a damn 🙂
