Video Transcript:
this is the only sales page you need to consistently hit $10,000 months in your service business it's pre-planned thoroughly tested and it's been shown to more than double standard conversion rates from just 9% to over 20% that's twice as much of the traffic you're already getting turning into leads and paying clients and in this video I'm just given it to you okay I'm going to show you every single thing that needs to go on the page what makes it work so well and exactly how you can make it work for your service no matter what
it is but before we dive into the sales page blueprint let's talk about exactly what it's for so this isn't just a web page it's a focused sales tool that's designed to convert your site traffic into paying clients you might use this page to sell a service or book consultations or schedule appointments regardless of what your offer is the principles remain the same because this page is designed to guide potential clients through their buying journey and even if your service is unique human psychology is pretty consistent and that's what this sales page blueprint Taps into
so yeah it works for pretty much any kind of service business in fact according to a recent study a well-designed page can potentially increase website conversion rates by up to 200% but if you were to go a step further and focus on the overall user experience including things like sight speed navigation Clarity and the overall customer Journey that can have an even bigger impact on your conversion rates up to 400% that means that if your current sales page were to convert at 5% today redoing it in the format that I'm about to show you can
bump that up to 20% just like that so as we go through the layout remember we're not just putting together random sections we're building a seamless experience that guides visitors builds trust and convinces them that you're their solution so let's start off with the navigation right up top so we have the logo in the top left corner we have the button in the top right corner then we have all these links to the left of the button and you'll notice it's just a small handful of links and there's a very important reason that we include
just a few we don't need to include 30 pages and drop down menus in every single page up top why because we're trying to be as non-distracting as possible because we really want people to focus on the content of the page so only put things up here that are important to getting people just to feel comfortable enough to actually book an appointment or a consult or a sales call with you you know things like pricing about us Services FAQs maybe and pay particularly close attention to how this is is laid out with the logo here
and the button here and the text right here cuz here's the thing people have certain expectations for how websites are laid out and while you may think you know it's boring uh to put things where everybody else does maybe I want to be different you actually want to play into their expectations for a really important reason so if you don't and you were to switch the logo over to the right and and the button over to the left people's brains have to think about that even if it's just for a second and then they're not
paying attention to the more important things on the page that are actually going to make the sale easier for you so this right here is the ideal layout for these elements and also what you want to do is make sure that it's what we call Sticky meaning as you scroll down the page it should stay right up at the top here so that they have easy access to the button whenever they're ready to get started now let's get to the actual page content starting with the hero section right up top so this is the first
thing the visitors see and it's really important for grabbing attention and encouraging action if it doesn't do that this just might be the last thing they see too so the trick here is to convey these three things before they even have to scroll down what do you do how do you make their lives better and what do they need to do to get it so so we're going to start with the headline here you want to make it really clear and direct no need to get cute or clever with how you say it I personally
like to use the main headline to talk about the big result that your clients are going to get from working with you next we have the sub headline so use this part to explain exactly what the service is who it's for and how it's delivered in other words if the headline that big bold statement the sub headline needs to bring it back down to earth and say exactly how you get that result for people so take a look at this example website from the Happy Sleeper the headline talks about the result sleeping through the night
then the subheader says that you'll get that result through OnDemand sleep classes all right now let's talk about the call to action button or the CTA so this is where you want people to click to take the next step with your service so you want to make sure that it St stands out visually and uses specific action-oriented firsters language so when I say first person what I mean is rather than saying book your strategy session instead go with something like book my free strategy session or swap out get your custom quote for get my custom
quote it's a small change but changing it to firstperson wording can really boost your results a study from unbounce found that using my instead of your on your buttons can increase click-through rates by up to 90% that's almost double also be really clear about what happens when someone clicks that button are they scheduling a call or getting a proposal spell it out this eliminates the guesswork and makes people more comfortable to actually click through so the whole point here is to make it super easy for your potential clients to take that next step with you
and it's a really good idea to include some kind of social proof in this section too for a B2B business this could be logos of companies you've worked with or for any service business it could be just something that shows how many five star reviews you have online or a few impressive statistics about your results now finally let's talk about adding an image now this is not just for looks it's got a really important job to do so ideally you want to show your ideal client in their happy after State you know once they've gotten
the results that you promise so let's go back to the Happy Sleeper example they use a picture of a peacefully sleeping baby not a stressed out parent trying to get their kid to bed you know the idea is to let people sort of Imagine themselves in the problem already solved now this is way more powerful than either showing people in the middle of their problem or showing you and your team up here in the hero section you generally don't want to do that your image should basically say this could be you if you pay us
okay next up is the problem section so this is where you want to nail down exactly what your service is going to fix so you want to start out with a really bold headline that captures the main issue now under that you want to break down the specific symptoms of this problem so we're using bullet points here because that's 55% more likely to be read than paragraphs here's how it looks on the Friday habits website the health of your business is too important to neglect the problem then we have four bullet points describing what this
actually looks like in your life each of these points digs into a different aspect of the main problem they're not just saying your business needs help they're showing all the different ways that this impacts their work and their personal life and by the way this isn't about going negative or making people feel bad it's about showing that you understand what they're going through so when your prospects can see that you recognize their struggles they're going to automatically assume that you know how to fix them remember your audience already knows that they have these problems you're
not telling them anything new what you're doing is demonstrating that you get it you understand their situation inside and out and that sets you up as the perfect person to provide the solution and that leads us right into the solution section so this is where you position yourself as the guide who's going to help solve the problems that we just laid out in this section you just want to briefly introduce yourself or your company as the solution the key here is to focus on how you can help not just who you are and you're just
going to want to really briefly highlight your qualifications experience or rewards that establish your Authority but remember it's not about bragging it's about showing why you're qualified to help but that Authority is only half the equation here they also need to feel seen and heard so share a personal story or an experience that shows that you understand what your clients are going through that is what's going to build that really important connection and then finally just give a really clear direct explanation of how your service solves the problem don't get into all the details yet
just give them an overview that leaves them wanting to know more take a look at this example from Dr Sherry so she talks about her unique qualifications establishes her Authority in the field um she's even got a little Ted Talk video here to show even more Authority not everyone's going to have that that's okay and she clearly states that she understands the challenges that her clients face by the end of this section your potential clients should feel like they found someone who not only understands their struggles but has the expertise to guide them through and
yes this is the section where you'd want to show your own face or your team for the first time so up until now we've made it all about your client for a good reason they are meant to be the hero in their own story but now you're the helpful guide who shows up to give them a taste of what they've been missing and I do recommend actually showing yourself here for the very simple reason that it humanizes your business so Dr Sherry does it with a video thumbnail but you can totally just have a nice
photo of you or your entire team if you have one because how many websites have you gone to where there's literally no trace of the real people behind the business and do you trust those websites I don't I mean even if you don't know why something just feels disconnected maybe even Shady about a business with with no real people there the thing is people want to work with people that they feel some kind of a connection to and it just doesn't help if they can't even see you okay so now we're getting to the benefit
section next this is where you're going to show potential clients exactly what they'll get from working with you so your benefits really need to focus on results and actions not just features people don't buy products and services just to collect them right they buy outcomes results and even better versions of themselves so each benefit should really paint a picture of how your client's life or business if your B2B is going to improve so think about the outcomes the your service provides what problems do you solve how do you make your clients lives easier or better
that's what you want to highlight here and for each benefit you want to include a title that highlights the main result or outcome then a short description that explains more about the feature you provide that makes the benefit possible that's going to satisfy the emotional buyin and The Logical backup that needs to happen for people to not only want to buy from you but to then feel smart about doing it too now you probably don't want to just list these benefits with plain text you want to add some visuals for sure just to make this
section pop so use icons photos or illustrations that represent each benefit and it's not just for looks it's been studied and content with images actually has an 80% greater chance of being read it makes your benefits more engaging and just easier to skim and a great example of this is the benefit section from Ali dog food so check out numbers two and three here happier healthier besti and wildly convenient those are great benefits that are then explained through the description under the headlines it talks about healthier food and scheduled delivery both of which are the
features behind the bigger benefits the one gripe I have here is number one wagw worthy recipes which is really just a feature I would rather see this be something about you know longevity or better bonding with your dog something like that that could then be explained by the delicious recipes moving along to the action plan section so most businesses are going to skip this section and that's a huge mistake here's why people tend to shy away from anything when they're not sure how it's going to work or what's going to happen next people are just
way more likely to jump in when they can see a clear simple path forward and that's exactly what this plan does answering that how does it work question before they even ask it it just takes the mystery out of working with you and makes that first step feel a lot less scary so here's how it all breaks down step one is always about getting the ball rolling it's that first action that they need to take like hitting your you know book a call Button step two gives them a quick overview of what working with you
looks like it's pretty much where your entire process goes but don't go into too much detail here just give them the big picture or you're going to risk overloading them with too much information and overwhelming them which misses the whole point of this section then step three is where you remind remind them of the awesome results they're going to get it's not even really a step in your process it's the transformation it's the happily ever after that they're going to see after working with you and here's a great example from Murphy marketing you can see
that step one is to book a strategy call step two is where all the work actually happens then step three is where you get the work back and you can use it in your marketing now you may be wondering why three steps well three is just kind of a magic number when it comes to making things easy to remember and understand it's not about listing out every single thing you do for your clients instead these three steps show them that you've got this under control it lets them sit back and look forward to that happy
ending that you're promising right here in step three all right moving on to the testimonial section now this is where you really prove your worth cuz remember showing actual proof that you can do what you say is way more powerful than any promises that you make yourself that's why this section is so crucial so you want to include real quotes from satisfied clients here but don't just throw in any old testimonial you know you want to choose ones that speak to specific results or Transformations now a good testimonial should roughly follow this format before I
was struggling with X now after working with you I've achieved Y and feel Z that tells a nice little cohesive story so people can see themselves in it and they can see what you've really done for people in the past so once you've got your testimonials picked out here's how you want to make each one stand out what I like to do is give each one a two to three word pull quote headline so this grabs attention and highlights the key benefit right away because here's the thing a lot of people aren't going to read
the whole review right people are busy and let's face it they're kind of checked out when they're looking at a website but they probably will read all the headlines at least so give them a little taste of what people are saying in that headline and you always want to include a photo of the person giving the testimonial if you can if you can get their permission this adds credibility to the review because they'll subconsciously be thinking okay this person stands behind their words enough to put their face on it and that means something then I
always like to include a little five-star graphic to each testimonial that way even if people don't read the full quote they're gonna see those stars and they're just gonna instantly understand that it's a positive review and you want to try to feature a variety of testimonials this is going to help address different concerns that your potential clients might have maybe one focuses on the results another one focuses on how easy you were to work with and another on the you know return on investment let's say and if you have video testimonials definitely use them they're
even more powerful than written ones because they're harder to fake and it helps if the person's emotions and facial expressions can help sell their positive experience and don't forget to use the power of those thirdparty review sites if you've got profiles on Google or trust pilot or Yelp or whatever any industry specific review sites that may apply to you show those logos and the star ratings so mention how many reviews you have and if possible you might want to include links to those sites too people just trust these thirdparty reviews more because they know they're
unbiased but if you're short on testimonials Don't Panic just focus on getting more you know you want to reach out to your satisfied clients and ask if they'd be willing to share their experience and just make that a serious priority this year next we have the FAQ section so this is where you tackle those common questions headon but here's the thing this isn't just about answering questions right it's about busting through objections before they even come up think about all the reasons why people might hesitate to work with you is it money time they're not
sure it'll work whatever those big objections are turn them into questions and then answer them right here pick your top you know five or six fa cues and objections no more than that on the sales page you don't want to overwhelm them with a huge list just focus on the most important ones here then for each question just give a really clear concise answer be reassuring but don't sugar Cod things if there's a common concern address it directly now this section actually does double duty it clears up any confusion about your service and it shows
you understand what's on your potential client's Minds it's like you're having a conversation with them addressing their concerns before they even have to ask now by the end of this section they should be thinking okay they've thought of everything and I'm now all out of objections I'm ready to take the next step and if they're ready to take the next step this is where you give them an easy way to get started with the call to action section this is where you seal the deal now you've got a choice here you can go with a
simple call to action button and a strong headline or you can go a step further on this page and include either a form or a booking tool so personally I'm a fan of using a booking tool like this this is calendly it just cuts out all that back and forth of emailing and gets people on your calendar right away so um again if you go that route I like calendly it works great you would just embed it right on your page so people can choose you know a date and then a time that works for
them and for you it's easy it's convenient and it reduces the friction so the less work people have to do to get in touch with you the more likely they are to to do it and if you prefer a simple called action button here just repeat the same one that we used up in the hero section right here same color same message just exactly the same everything and then you're just going to want to pair that with a really strong headline that gives people that final push to take action something like ready to get started
