Anatomy of a Single Page Sales Letter

• At the top is the pre-head – it makes a call out to a targeted audience.

Attention Small Business Owners!

• The headline must instantly grab your prospect’s attention

“Finally an Online Marketing System That is Guaranteed to Increase Your Sales in 2 Weeks or Your Money Back! “

• The sub-heading adds more information to gain your prospect’s interest

Our Online Marketing System  Generates More Leads, Attracts More Customers, Increases Sales Volume, and Saves You Money!

• The salutation is important to personalize the copy to your target audience

Dear Website Owner,

• The first paragraph of the body is called the lead paragraph and is where you want to entice the reader to keep reading.

If your sales are down or you have wasted thousand of dollars on marketing programs that don’t work, I’ve got good news for you.

• The body tells the story and gives details.

My name is ___ and I have seen companies waste money on internet marketing programs for over 15 years. Time and again they fall for a sales pitch from some slick firm using key words that get them to buy, only to be left later with a mediocre website, unhappy customers, and no new sales. After seeing the aftermath over and over again I knew there had to be a better way. I knew my clients were getting better results for less money!

That’s when I set out to build a n online marketing system that works, costs less money, takes less time, and requires less work from you. I spent hundreds of hours with my clients researching, designing, and perfecting one system after another. Finally I have consolidated my system into a simple straight forward process that anyone can use. My program has been proven by top small businesses in the US and more than doubled the revenue of many small businesses.

Within a few weeks my clients were increasing their revenue, getting more customers, all for less money. I haven’t seen a single client who is ready for growth not get results. Best of all my simple program works anywhere, without huge amounts of money or resources. Simply start the program follow the steps and you are on your way. It’s so easy – you never have to worry about where your business is headed again.

Customers will flock to your door because the program aligns all of your potential customers to buy and trust your business. Once they’re in there’s no escape because they will never consider doing business with someone else again. I call it Customers For Life.

• Testimonials offer social proof

I had already experienced one business failing that resulted in bankruptcy and was facing another one when I met Mark at a conference. I knew something good was going to come of our meeting, I just didn’t know what. After six months on the Marketing System, my struggling publication that was about to shut down, grew 50 percent larger, I increased my revenue 300 percent, and attracted some of the most well-known names in our industry. I can’t believe all of this happened so fast. I know without a doubt that without the Marketing System I would not be in this place today.”
