At some point in the future, we may have salesbots, robots that can make sales around the clock.
Until then, the next best thing is a piece of professional copywriting: a high-converting sales page or email that you can “turn on,” put in front of a customer, and make money from–time and time again.
Copywriting Fees vs Salesperson Wages
A sales person can earn well over $5,000 a month.
And although the most famous copywriters will charge $50,000, you can get a powerful sales letter for less than $5,000.
Assuming you’ve hired the right copywriter, that one-time investment will pay off for years to come. As long as you can bring new customers to that page, you will continue to make sales.
(I don’t have any numbers on the Salesbot X2R7, but I believe it runs well over $50,000.)
For less than the cost of a month with a great sales person–who can only work 10-12 hours a day–you get a non-stop sales machine that will last you years (or until your product is replaced with robots).
Your Job Is Critical
After hiring a copywriter, you can’t just let go of the wheel.
It’s important to remember that copywriters shoot for high conversion rates. That means they make a high percentage of people buy products.
But a large percent of a small number is still just a small number. You need to generate traffic and create great products in order to put that copy to use.
If your company is attracting plenty of attention, but not getting enough sales, it’s time to upgrade your copy with a pro.
