Secrets of a 10% Conversion Rate

Secrets of a 10% ConversionI know Paul Hancox.

Paul is a fanatical tester. He’s also an excellent copywriter.

But what you may not know is that Paul is also the creator of the very first split-testing software I’ve ever used. We’re talking, um, circa 1999, I believe. It was called “Sales Page Master Pro.” (Paul has a new version out now.)

Well, another copywriter, Paul Myers, recommended this new “report” written by Paul Hancox. I snatched it up in a heartbeat. I did because the simple title piqued my curiosity. In it you discover how to raise the conversion rate of any piece of online copy you write.

Not to 2% or 3%. Not even to 5%.

It shows you how to boost your conversion rate…


… To as high as 10%, and even more!

As you can imagine, at first, I was skeptical. I’m a fanatical tester and a copywriter by trade, so I figured this is just a marketing tactic. After all, the industry average is anywhere between 1-2%.

I regularly achieve rates of 3%-7% with my own copy. And I know that 10% is possible in some cases. I’ve done it many times.

But for the average marketer or copywriter?

If it came from someone else, I would have naturally passed it off as hype. But since I know Paul Hancox and I know he’s a fanatical tester too, I also know that this wasn’t some exaggeration or underhanded ploy.

So I was intrigued.

(What happened next surprised me.)

After buying Paul’s report, I opened what I thought would be just a few pages of huge margins, white space, and filler (ostensibly to inflate and exaggerate the size of the content).

Not only was I amazed that this course was a little under 130 pages with slim margins, but also I was dumbfounded by the fact that it was wall-to-wall, solid content.

Not some lame 25- or 50-page “report.” (Paul does call it a “report,” although it’s much closer to an actual short book, if you ask me.)

Even better, the content was really, really good.

How good was the content? I not only read it all in a single sitting, but it was so good that, after reading it, I also couldn’t apply all the changes I learned in this book fast enough!

In my 20 years as a copywriter and salesperson, as well as a fanatical tester…

… I learned things I never knew and would have never imagined.

With one salesletter I applied just a simple tweak over the last weekend, it immediately bumped up my conversion. And it’s super-simple, but I would have never thought about it if I didn’t get this report.

(A word of warning, though. While some of the changes Paul suggests are easy and quick to implement, don’t think they’re about tiny, insignificant things, like testing colors, fonts, or graphics. This report goes deeper than that. A lot deeper. Hint? It’s about salesmanship.)

Paul’s report is called, “The Secrets of a 10% Conversion Rate.”

To be candid, I would have easily paid five times more for this course, if not more. This is a steal, and I mean that sincerely. These days, it takes a lot for me to be impressed. Well, I’m more than impressed.

I’m astounded.

I was so impressed that…

… I decided to buy rights to the book and offer it myself!

Yes, it’s that good. (If you know me, you know I don’t do this often. I far more prefer to promote my own products or, at most, be an affiliate of an existing product. But this is truly an exception.)

This gives me the ability to offer this book to you.

So get your copy of “The Secrets of a 10% Conversion” right now.

It’s 127 pages. There’s no boring fluff or filler. There’s no “history” of this, or “basics” of that. It’s solid gold, with some advanced, killer strategies, from the very first page to the last. (Besides the table of contents, of course.)

The salesletter’s suggested retail price is $197 for this report. But I’m making a special offer for just a fraction of that, which is applied when you checkout.

For the full story, go and read the letter now. Grab your copy of Paul’s report. Then grab a coffee or your favorite beverage. And depending on how fast you read, take up to an hour to read this 127-page report.

If you’re anything like me, you will want to re-read it.


Several times.

It will be well worth it. I promise you.

If you don’t like it? Just let me know and I’ll give you a refund on the spot. (It’s guaranteed for 90 days, anyway.) At the time of writing this, It made 85 sales and I processed 2 refunds.

By the way, post your feedback by adding your comment at the end of this post. I’d love to hear from you. What did you think of the book? Did you apply any of the tweaks Paul suggested? What were some of your results?

I’m also testing the delivery mechanism for this product. If you come across any snags, please let me know, too. Either reply to this thread, or email me at support [at] thecopydoctor.com.

I highly recommend you implement some of the changes Paul suggests. If you’re not testing right now, don’t worry. Paul also shows you how to do it and offers a few resources.

Now, you might think…

“But Michel, my site barely gets any traffic!”

Good question. How can you test your copy when you’re barely making sales, if any at all?

There’s a way around it.

Sure, there’s split-testing and then there’s multivariate testing. But in either case (especially with multivariate testing), you need a lot of traffic to come to some statistically significant results.

(That’s why some of the “big players” can test their way to amazing conversion rates.)

However, in this report Paul also introduces something he calls “flow testing.” I knew about this (I talked about it on my blog in the past), but Paul explains it so masterfully and in plain language, it makes it remarkably easy to understand and implement.

(It’s also the best testing strategy for smaller sites that get very little traffic. You can test your copy even if you only get 10 visitors a day! And yes, it can help you achieve high conversion rates, too.)

So get yours now. Get “The Secrets Of A 10% Conversion Rate!” today.

    Thanks - I just bought this and I agree, the “flow testing” model is a superb innovation, and one which I hadn’t known about nor thought about before … learning this one powerful tactic alone was more than worth getting this for (starts on page 36 and goes on through page 48… tons of content).

    Agree this is a rock-solid content packed report, no fluff or thin content; it’s extremely well done, I’m printing it out to have bound at kinkos for a permanent reference. Nice work on this, thanks for finding it and making it available.

    I also loved the “Arabian Nights Technique” (that’s a killer copy hook by itself) as part of the pre-sale process, on page 54.

    Insights on depth needed throughout sales process to successfully apply price conditioning were superb, and I’ll use that, too (starts on page 67).
    And, the bonus tips on page 121 re case studies/referral programs were also useful.

    Excellent report - very well worth getting; I don’t buy these types of things often (1-2x/year at most), this was one of the best I’ve read. Nice work on it!

    You sold me Michel :) No joke, time to buy my first “internet marketing” report in at least a whole years time. I’m not even going to bother reading the salesletter.

    LOL! Had to laugh when I read Joshua’s comment as I’m a similar case. Despite being in a self-imposed “No Buy” period, you easily convinced me I had to have this! Guess it’s a good example of the power of a recommendation from a “Trusted Source”.

    In any case, I happened to be revisiting the idea of copywriting as “Salesmanship In Print” and was wondering to myself what copy lessons there might be from the different approaches to personal selling. Lo and behold, someone had the same idea and got there before me.

    Look forward to reading the report and I’ll report back with my thoughts.

    HI Michel,

    Is this report good for physical product sellers? I found that most of the courses are more for info products, not physcial products. I am looking for some courses which help to sell physical products. Can this report help?

    Thanks & best regards,

    Grace

    Grace,

    To answer your question about whether the report is relevant for physical products, the answer is “Yes” but I do have a qualification to that.

    The report is very much aimed at online marketers, although many of the concepts discussed apply to offline marketing as well. So, if you are selling a physical product online, the report has some useful material.

    However, a note of caution. Having read the report, I think it’s really only of use to people who already have some knowledge and experience of marketing. If you’re looking for a step-by-step beginner’s guide, this isn’t it.

    Sure, there is some useful stuff in here but there’s an awful lot of “What to do” material rather than “How to do”. It’s also a bit of a pitch for Paul’s products (done in a very skillful and non-intrusive way, I have to say).

    Hope that helps.
