Go from a site that SITS to one that SELLS

Change Your Focus
The most common mistake—talking more about your company than about the needs of your prospects. If your site’s copy has more “we” than “you,” you should rethink the message you putting out immediately.

 

Visitors to your website, really, don’t care about your company. They don’t even care about the products or services your offering. Their only concern is how your company can solve their problems. Stop writing your copy like an annual report; instead convert it over to direct response style, proven over 100 years to get far greater results than any other style. This will position your site as an online sales person, because that’s what it should be.
