Don’t Offer Too Many Choices

When trying to get your web visitors to act, don’t offer too many choices.  If you offer too many products, or donation levels or white papers (etc) you’ll actually depress your response rate.  Instead – keep it simple and make it compelling.

Use Bullet Points Sparingly

Bullet points are a great way to emphasize your main selling points – but too much of a good thing is counter-productive.  Use them sparingly or your page will end up looking like a shopping list.

Beware the Mission Statement

Your mission statement is an invaluable tool for attracting investors and creating focus. Remember, though, that it’s not marketing copy and your prospects mostly don’t care about it. Don’t use it as the focus of your sales message.

Optimize Your WordPress Site

If your site is built on WordPress, make sure you install the SEO plug-in.  Optimization should be a given, not an optional extra.

Write your sales message

Write your sales message in the same voice you would use when speaking face to face with your best prospect. If you read it out loud and it doesn’t sound natural – rewrite.

Testimonials

“Wendy did wonderful work on my brochure. My old one was full of mixed messages; a “scattergun” approach born of the hope that maybe one point would hit home with the reader. The general impression was unfocussed and dilute. Her clever work honed the points in the message, targeted my key market, and communicated it all with convincing clarity. I’m delighted – thanks, Wendy!”
