Lift Conversions Up To 55%
Do you really serious about raising more money online? Or capturing more activists or leads? Or selling more merchandise?
Then run out (i.e., go online) and buy Marketing Sherpa's new Landing Page Handbook. Here's where.
I don't know anyone who collects more hard data on marketing than Marketing Sherpa. And this empirically-driven book tells you what you need to know about crafting web landing pages that close the sale.
Not a book by a dreamy creative director or web developer … rather, a book about marketing by marketers. It ain't cheap; but it will earn its keep.
As Seth Godin says, this book is full of hands on, verified info … “The bad news is that you are now out of excuses.”
And no, I don't own stock in Marketing Sherpa.
