    Hey guys,

    first time here on digital point. I am writing an ebook to be sold on clickbank
    Its going to be about 50 pages. Its packed with info about marketing tricks i have learned. I am going to have an affilates page where an interested affilate can download banners for use in ppc or other websites and and eventually add an autoresponder. This ebook is very different. its not the same old adwords internet marketing crap we see every day. its new information and a very refreshing look at email campaigns.

    Congratulations!

    Have you already written your sales page?

    If so, can you post the link for review?

    ...and by the way,

    how much longer until you finish your eBook?

    When should we see it advertised with ClickBank?

    this is not the actual site. I wrote a skeleton website so i could get approved by clickbank. I have had sites rejected before and i am not willing to invest monies into graphics and professional writing just for it to go wasted when i go for review. I am hesitant to post this stuff becuase the topics i write about are unique and can give "gurus" ideas. but I do want ideas and input from fellow marketers

    "from the desk of brian Markuson"

    Dear God, that sounds like the header to most of the spam email I receive. I strongly recommend you change that. I also don't get an impression of quality when reading the sales page, you could make an effort to get the spelling and grammer right.

    But you did mention you were going to get a professional writer, so that should be ok then. Are you writing the ebook yourself or is that going to be done by a professional writer too?

    I don't mean to be pessimistic, but I agree with Mage. Your headline needs to "Grab" the reader and keep them enticed. The headline did not really grab me, in fact I did not really know what it meant.

    What exactly is a "hypnotic whammie?"

    I would stick with the K.I.S.S. principle.

    After reading further I saw what you meant, but honestly Iwould not read that far. I want to know what the benefits are, and I want to know asap.

    I would suggest reworking the sales letter and moving the bulleted benefits up towards the top in a larger font than the text. How am I gonna stop the refund? What "proof" can you show me so I will buy your e-book? What are you offering thats unique and different than the other ebooks I have seen? What exactly is your USP?

    Just my 0.02 cents.

    For creating something that's "not like everything else," you sure did screw the pooch on the copy-o-matic here.

    Honestly, I'd sit down and rethink what you're doing.

    And yes, get a professional writer, because there's leakage, errors and so forth all over.

    If you're not confident enough to put "monies" into your project to do it right from the start, why should anyone be confident enough to approve you, promote your product or buy your product?

    I'm sure you're confident in your product, so why not do it right?

    I'm afraid you're heading for another rejection. With all due respect, not even Clickbank will accept such a poor sales page. You must invest "monies" in graphics and professional writing if you want to be approved. I'm assuming that your lack of will to invest is the reason behind your previous disapprovals.

    It would also be interesting if you could elaborate as to how your e-book will be different from all the rest. Everyone says that their e-book will be unique or special. We've heard it all too many times before, to the point where it has become tedious.

    Brian, your goal should be not to scam/rip off buyers. The make money online and online marketing ebook scene has been saturated beyond measure. In fact, they are all scams - not even worth the digital paper they're printed on. If you've got marketing tips to offer, post it on a blog - dont charge people for it unless its good. Not to sound offensive, but your sales letter already shows me the ebook isnt going to be any better. If your a marketing guru, good for you. You should be expert enough to apply the techniques yourself and earn good money from it. If you cant, then your product isnt worth buying, and it will be labeled as a scam. Good luck.
