Aloha, How do you write your Clickbank sales pages? Do you sit down and do it yourself or do you outsource it? Can you recommend someone if you outsource it? Thanks a lot, Mads
I tried outsourcing, usually ended up with some guy saying "OH YES THIS WILL SELL!!!!", then writing me some crap and asking for prepay if he was to do any rewriting. Eventually it all comes down to getting some beer and writing the sales page yourself. Hit me up if you need any help with your sales page though, might just help you out.
I do it myself. Outsourcing costs vary. The best people like Jeff Walker will cost you several tens of thousands of dollars. Perhaps even $100k. I might get into freelance copywriting myself as I'm getting quite good at it and enjoy it a lot. I'll probably start offering my services at around the $500 mark. You can't get much cheaper than that for entry level copywriting.
Sales copy is an artform and a science which takes a lot of knowledge, skill and practice. You can do it yourself, but chances are you won't achieve the same result as a professional - same with graphics, programming, SEO or anything else. I write mine myself, but have been doing so for years. My first attempts were awful, but I'm getting much better now. If you want to outsource, get onto eLance.com and post your job. You can set a budget and you don't have to accept anyone. You can just shop around and see who costs how much. Be sure to get samples of their work before you decide to hire them!
We would be glad to get your sales copy completed for you. You can check us out at our website, which is in my signature. The sites being tidied up, a few spots left to fix but the content writing area is completed. If you need any samples feel free to PM me and we will get you those right away. We typically charge 10 cents per word for sales copy, our writer does all of my affiliate marketing sales pages and they do extremely well so let me know if your interested.
I've outsourced and have had no problems. Try some of the places like Elance and make sure you read the feedback of anybody that you are thinking of hiring. You can often get some real quality writers that don't cost the earth.
You have to be very careful, a sales page is very important, the sales letter is what sells to the customer . This is not just some article that you post on your blog, it's the sales letter, you have to make sure it's top-notch. Even if your product is crappy, it will still sell if your sales letter is good, so I'd suggest you find someone good and experienced.
It varies hugely. You might get someone to do it for $100, or they might charge $10,000. Generally it depends on their experience (and ego!). If they have produced solid results for the last 10 years, they'll charge thousands. If they're new to professional copy writing, or not producing great results, they'll charge hundreds. Remember - most of the time, you get what you pay for. Occasionally there are good deals to be had though, you've just got to find them.
