Your sales page can have a great offer and still underperform because the page is doing extra work at the wrong moments. We keep seeing the same issues show up with clients: modules that read like a course outline, an FAQ that feels generic, and testimonials that are buried at the bottom instead of supporting the buyer right before they click. So we walk through a practical sales page structure that’s easy to scan on mobile and easier on readers over 40, without sacrificing clarity or persuasion.

We dig into how to write your “assets” section so every module or deliverable communicates transformation. Instead of “you will learn,” we push for outcome-driven sales copy that helps a buyer picture what life looks like after each step, what they’ll feel, and what they’ll be able to do with confidence. Then we turn the FAQ into a true conversion tool by answering the real objections that stop purchases: time, money, and the fear that it won’t work for them based on past attempts. We also talk through when to clarify insurance, digital product policies, and money-back guarantees.

Finally, we cover how to use testimonials and social proof throughout the page, especially near buttons, to break up text and reinforce trust at decision points. We also discuss when an about section helps with cold audiences from ads or affiliates, plus how to present pricing ranges or route higher-ticket offers to a discovery call so the right people self-qualify. If this helped, subscribe for more sales page strategy, share it with a friend building an offer, and leave a review with the one section of your sales page you’re rewriting next.

Sales Page Formatting Recap

SPEAKER_00

Today, we're going to continue the discussion that we were having yesterday about sales pages. And I'm bringing this up a lot because this is what continues to come up with clients. We're constantly taking a look at sales pages, trying to identify the things that can make it better. And one of the things that I am constantly talking about is the formatting. So if you didn't listen to yesterday's episode, go back and listen to that. It is going to help you a ton. I promise you. You're going to see a difference for yourself when you really make sure that that formatting is set up for mobile and it's set up for eyes over 40. So yesterday we did quick, we did the title, subtitle, we talked about pain points, we talked about that story. Then next, what we're going to want to make sure is that we get into the transformation that they're going to have in the assets. So when we talk about the assets, you can tell them, you know, you're getting this is the module name. When you tell them the modules, you've got six modules, you've got the title of each module. The way in which you describe it should show me the transformation that they are going to have after completing that module. And it should not be written like an objective. So you will learn or you will discover or you will find out. Those are objective writings. I see a lot of my therapists and a lot of my former teachers writing it that way. Instead, what I want you to do is write it as a transformation. What will they feel or look like after completing that module? You're going to have the confidence to walk into a room and know exactly what to say to a potential buyer. Or you are again go back to what is it going to feel like? What is it going to look like? That's how those assets should be written. They shouldn't be written as you're gonna learn to, you're gonna discover, like I said, okay. Now, once we have the assets, another important page of piece of the um sales page is going to be your FAQ. And it's not a boring FAQ that they don't need to know. FAQ is meant to myth boss, it is meant to get over any objections they may have to buying. So remember, objections normally focus around time, money, and as far as like commitment that's gonna come from them. So you wanna make sure that you are overcoming these objections in your FAQ section. If they're concerned about time, how much time is it going to take them? What kind of results are they going to see? That should be answered. Uh, money, how what is the difference when it comes to money? How much money are they actually going to save by being able to do this? Or how much more money are they going to make because of what you're teaching them? That can be a part of it. And then the other piece is feeling like they can actually do it. They haven't succeeded in the past. Why is yours going to work? So that should be in your FAQ. And then, of course, if there's anything else, like you um utilize insurance if you're a therapist, if you are delivering a digital product, what is the guarantee as far as money back? Is it or is it, hey, you get your digital download and there are no money backs because you got it and we're done. You need to make sure that that's clarified in that FAQ section. Okay, so that is going to be an important piece of this as well. Now, one of the things that we haven't talked about yet is testimonials. And testimonials are important to sprinkle throughout the sales page. You don't want just a testimonial section down at the bottom where there's like three in a row. Use those to sprinkle them throughout the sales page to break up the text. It's often important to get that testimonial by a button. Because we talked about yesterday, your button needs to come between your pain points and your story. I'd also recommend having a testimonial by that. And then when you are looking at another button, I would have another button between my assets written as transformations between my and my FAQ. Again, testimonial there. And then one of the last pieces, the sales page, is going to potentially be an about. And sometimes that's not even necessary. This is where you're telling them about yourself, but in a standpoint of how you're going to be the guide on their journey. Now, sometimes that's not even necessary, especially if you know that by the time they get to your page, they're a warm audience, they know who you are. If you are getting a cold audience though, and they do not know you, you're running Facebook ads, you are potentially um using a lot of affiliates that it's a little, it's a warmer audience, but they don't really know who you are exactly, then that might be necessary to have an about. So make sure that you have it there. You also, the one piece that I didn't want to forget is you also want your pricing. Um, sometimes if you are an intensive program, you may want to just book a discovery call, especially if you have multiple options for the type of intensive that you offer. So it's gonna depend upon how you are pricing things. You do want to give them some idea of what it's gonna cost them, like a minimum of or a maximum of 500 or a maximum of 1500. That way they can definitely disqualify themselves if money is gonna be that is that is going to be an issue for that price. So making sure that you have that too. I would recommend that that comes between transformation and FAQ with your pricing right there in the middle. But again, remember your buttons and have your testimonials throughout where the buttons are.
