No one is actually going to see the letter...so I don't edit myself.

Here's the 10-part letter formula.

Dear Dean,

1) I'm writing to you because I want you to:

[insert my naked truth reason I'm writing...as if I were making my request known to a lamp Genie who could grant my wish]

ie: Take out your credit card and pay me $39 for my new book called...


2) The reason I'm writing to YOU specifically is because I think you want:

1.
2.
3.
etc.

3) Here is a list of what you get when you [buy my book]:

1. You get ______ -- which means ________
2.
3.
etc.

4) If I were trying to guess the top 10 questions or objections you have about buying this today...they would be:

1.
2.
3.
etc.

5) So- here's how I would clear those up for you:

1.
2.
3.
etc.

6) I want you to be completely without risk...so here's my guarantee:

7) It's really easy to get started...you just:

- click this button
- fill in this form
- call this phone number
- return this coupon
etc.

Once you decide to get started here's what's going to happen:

9) You need to do this right NOW because:

10) Here's a list of people who have already [done this] and exactly what happened for them:

Dean
Thanks for linking this into a newer thread, Michel. I hadn't seen it before, but I just tried it on a new promotion and it gave me a whole new level of clarity.

For my style, I added #11: Here is what happened to me, and why I was forced to create this product or die.

Then I tell the story as succinctly as possible.

Great stuff.

Thanks, Dean!

Dean,

Thank you. I am new to this forum, in hopes of learning something. I have a format that I presently use for sales letters, but I believe that I am looking at a better one...your 60 minute naked truth sales letter. I most certainly will try it, as well as split test it. Thanks again.

Much Success,
George Pierce
