I left a sales page the other day because it had no clear flow.Not because I wasn’t interested in the product.Not because the words on the page weren’t good.I left because it was chaotic, and I couldn’t tell what to read in order to get the information I needed to decide whether I wanted the offer.That person lost a 4-figure sale that day. That sale was me, lol.Listen, I’m not trying to be harsh or bash this entrepreneur who I’ll obviously protect and keep anonymous. (Honestly, I would have loved to help them.)The fact of the matter is that our brains control how we process information, sales pages included.You could be the best copywriter in the world and lose a sale because of a common sales page strategy mistake. You could also be a great sales page strategist and lose a sale because of bad copy.In today’s episode, I cover these common sales page mistakes and how to avoid them.Tune in to listen 🎧✨Links mentioned in today's episode:01.

When I first stepped into the world of copywriting back in 2018, ethical copywriting wasn’t really a "thing" in the online space I was operating in. Even though I wasn’t educated on the topic, what I did know, or feel, was that the “bro marketing” way of copywriting that I was being trained in felt uncomfortable and slightly wrong at times.The whole “paint a picture of people’s problems” and then “twist the knife even further” to really sell them did not align with my empathetic, highly-sensitive self.And, maybe you feel the same? It wasn’t until 2020 when I came across my friends Nat from The Brand Copywriter and her coach (and my now friend) Rachel Turner that I learned there was a different way to write copy. A way that didn’t:manipulateshameor use pain pointsto get people to “take action” on your offer – and I fell in love and immediately started implementing what is now described as ethical copywriting.If you, too, have been interested in learning how to take a more ethical approach to how you write your own copy – especially sales page – episode 022 is going to give you 2 simple things you can do today to write more ethically without having to overthink it!Happy listening 🎧✨Where to continue learning + hanging out with me 🤠01.

Yeesh — sales pages, am I right? You either love writing them or you'd rather watch paint dry.Either way, if you're a business owner who has ever wanted to launch a course, program, or stand-alone offer of any kind then you might find yourself in need of one.And contrary to popular belief, I don't think you have to be a copywriter to write a great sales page. However, I do believe having a * P L A N * makes writing them a heck of a lot easier.In today's episode, I'm happily sharing my 03-step sales page writing process AND I sprinkled in a free resource (sales page start kit, checkkk-list) for extra support.What can I say?
