Get the reader on your side:You have to build a certain level of rapport with your readers,they have to trust you/ like you if they are going to buy from you.A great way to do this is by educating them...on whyyou created your product...what you went throughto produce it, the problems your product solves..things of this nature.Answer The visitor's question:"What's in it for me?"Nothing builds credibility more than YOUR willingnessto provide valuable, fr~e information to your visitor.By doing this in your sales copy, you will establish yourselfto them as someone who genuinely wants to help them.Make sure your copy is easy to read.This is so important...really, if your visitor can't follow your sales copy, they will not bother sticking around tofinish it.
