Default Ok, round two...please review my sales letter. - 09-26-2006, 10:05 PM

I posted my website here over a month ago and got some great ideas. I've since redone my copy and am still working on it.

But for now, I want to get some feedback to help me tweak it even more.

What do you like, what do you not like, etc. Feel free to really let me have it, I'm open for all idea's and critiques...

Thank you for your time.

Default I love your bullets - 09-26-2006, 10:21 PM

Hi, welcome again

so here is my modest vision please believe in my respect and my sympathy;

1)I love it.
2)I enjoyed reading you bullets, realy.

but

1)THE headline dosn't catch me.
2)the dear followersufrer make it sound wrong.
3)"probably discovered in your own life ...", we don't discover anxity, pain, depression we LIVE IT.

but I am happy to read the second version.

again I love your bullet. it incite me to read the method, hope just to have some sample chapter.

hope that help and again you made a great job congratulation (personaly I love thisone mrore then the first).


The beginner.
(Time to take some actions)

Hi...

Try bolding every other bullet item. It will make them stand out and draw attention to them.

Thanks for the comments thus far.

By the way, if any of you have some better idea's for a compelling headline, let me know. I think that is one area I'm a bit stuck and it is essential!

Please keep the constructive criticism coming...

Thank you!

P.S. Cy, should I bold every other item in both spots on my page with bullets or maybe I should alter the backgrounds with different shades. Just a thought.

You can. Also, your testimonial statements don't have to be bolded like you have it now. Just try it at first with just bolding the name and the testimonial headlines you have there. Too much bolding is too hard to read.

Oh..."Sounds crazy right?"...Make that text size a bit bigger. I can hardly notice it.

HTH

Ok, I've made the recommended changes on most things, except the headline.

Is it just me or does alternating the bolding on the bulleted parts to distracting on the eye? Or maybe, I have too many underlines going on in the check marked bullets section.

Looking much better than a month ago, I will say.

I noticed your text goes over 100 characters per line.

The cellpadding looks ok, but I would narrow down the table so you get closer to the 65-85 characters per line mark (causes less eye strain on the reader).

The easier it is for them to read it, the better chance of keeping their attention.

Ok, I've narrowed down the page and now it reads better. Great point primoquest!

What do all of you think about the headline? I started to think, I don't want people to think they have to OWN a pool or go swimming to overcome anxiety, etc. That is not what I'm trying to imply.

Does it come across that way to you?

What's missing? The 'you can do this too at home--even if you live in the Sahara Desert without a swimming pool' element.

My wording is crude however your headline must somehow indicate the information applies directly to them. Or is doable by them.
