In Response To: I'm bad at sales pages - need input on this one (Jim Kaiser)

> Looking for some input and advice here.....

Hi Jim, I too had problems downloading but I do have dial up, I had a hard time reading the copy with the greys and the background paper, those are minor items to fix. As a prospective buyer, i WOULD NEED AT LEAST 3 references of other business that you had help set up, 6 month up to year- are they still doing.
I might even run a background check on you, Who is this man wanting to come see me in my house. I commend you are involving your son. But be cafeful, You really don't know these days, some psyco might think he would be getting a 2 for deal wiht the kid. I have been watching to Datline this week. Where they set guys up in chat room to meet at this house and of course the guys are 20's, 30's. They serch one guys car and he had rope and duct tape. He knew he was going to meet a 15 year old girl who parents are gone for the weeknd.

Everyone else had some great ideas, finding your market will be hard. Like Mel said some like me are disabled and can't work 40 even from home, Then may be the younger ones are go getter and hit the streets running.

Homewor, homework, research and reseach the homes you would go in

Then follow up weekly biweekly early on, if this plan works they can be ebay seller.

Just a thought, if you set them up and learn it, then decided to what you do travel to teach, tand this goes on for a awhile won't it satuate Ebay and devaiue what ever the product. I have been told to see my art work on Ebay, My work is the real deal. not fake or faux stained. The all this crappy sun catchers gazing balls, wind chime for under 10 bucks I can compeite with that.
MY website is about me, I tell you enough about me that you might read the other pages on my site. I am selling me to custom design a stained glass project. I sell stuff in the gallery, I like the spercial commissons better

Sorry to ramble on , Good luck to you, it does need a few twweks and a little more about you and your accomplishments Carla It is late please forgive my typos.

The copy on my page is a bit blunt and not your typical sales page type
> fluff.

> I wanted to come across as a bit of a jerk because, well, I kinda am one
> and the product I'm selling here is myself. I want people to know what
> they're getting here.

> Just wondering what people's first impression is here and if this was
> something they were looking for, would there be enough there to make them
> pick up the phone and call.

> Or should I just take it in the typical sales page direction instead?

> Any input is appreciated.

NOTICE TO SCUMBEEZLES
(you know who you are... you scream "Foul!" when the truth comes out)
        PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT.  It has been done before, but never successfully.  In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
        If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace.
        NEWS FLASH:  I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday.  I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish.  I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?).  I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" 
        Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures.

        Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so.  We are not responsible or liable for any claim arising from the content of any such discussions or postings or for any error, defamation, libel, slander, omission, falsehood, obscenity, pornography, profanity, danger, or inaccuracy contained in any information contained within such locations on the Site.
        You are prohibited from posting or transmitting any unlawful, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene, scandalous, inflammatory, pornographic, or profane materials or any material that could constitute or encourage conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any law.  You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual.  We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials.
        By posting messages and/or content on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, you give permission for Lesley Fountain/Friends In Business/Shoestring Success Publications to display, distribute and use the posting and content for publication, advertising, promotion, excerption or example. You grant Lesley Fountain/Friends In Business/Shoestring Success Publications complete, perpetual, but non-exclusive rights to use, archive, reproduce, adapt, modify, distribute, sub-license, repurpose, rework, compile, or offer for sale or resale the messages, postings or content appearing on this site in whole or in part, throughout the world and universe, on a royalty-free basis without remuneration.  If you cannot accept or agree with the terms of service for this website and discussion board, you are advised not to post on this board.
        In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact.
        And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!).
