See you soon with the next podcast episode!
You continue batting a thousand with this fantastic podcast episode. :-) Thanks for these very helpful copywriting principles. I went back and looked at a sales page I just wrote and started laughing when I realized some of the faux pas I had committed. Still, I need to revise quickly then just publish it. (Like you said– you still need to get it out there. It doesn’t have to be perfect.) I’m gonna go make some more “pots.” It’s fun to smash them, if nothing else.
This episode prompted me to level up the copy on my home page yesterday, from 1 to 2. I just released my first product for sale two days ago, and while I don’t expect to become rich off it, I think it’s going to help me establish a platform. And having better copy will certainly make it more likely.
I haven’t yet tried out any really polarizing headlines, but I added one line I had shied away from before – “perfect for new product managers.” I.e., if you’re an experienced product manager it might not be for you.
BTW, recent Thrive Membership customer, which I’m mostly loving. So many moving parts, though, that I know it will take me a while to get the full value.
