You’re not poking at pain points – you’re showing them that you really see and get where they are right now.
THE VIBE:
Does this sound familiar?
Can you relate?
Have you ever felt this way?
What’s your reader craving or hoping for? Show them what’s possible if they could have what they want and what their life could be like. Evoke emotion with specific and sensory details.
(But keep it focused and realistic! The transformation you’re offering doesn’t have to be 0-100 in order for it to be really meaningful.)
THE VIBE:
What if things were different?
This could be you.
Imagine if...
A great testimonial is all about the transformation that someone experienced while working with you. (We already assume that you’re great to work with and that they were happy about the outcome!) What changed for them? How did their experience feel with you? What was the outcome?
Show the reader everything they get AND why it matters. (Features are things like Zoom calls, workbooks, the curriculum, online group platform, personal feedback, etc. Benefits are things like accountability, motivation from the feeling of community, the impact of what they learn, etc.)

Now give some instructions about when they need to take action, and how to take action. What are the dates/deadlines for enrolling? What should they do next? (i.e. fill out a form to book a call with you, pay a deposit, apply to the program, etc.) And then give ‘em a button to do that thing right here, right now.
Share your credibility in a brief bio that relates to the offer or service on this page. You’re inviting your reader to invest in you/your work, so you need to demonstrate why they should listen to you and trust you.
What relevant experiences or credentials are you bringing to the table? Why are you the one who can help your client? (You don’t need to get into your entire brand story or all the fun stuff here – that’s what your About page is for.)
You can tell them why you created this offer, what you want to help them achieve, how many years you’ve done this or how many clients just like them you’ve helped. Get them excited to work with you specifically!
Then give them a button (yes, again!) to take the next step in working with you.
Then give them a button (yes, again!) inviting them to take the next step.
And invite them one more time to take action. You’re here for them. You’re excited. You’re cheering them on.
Then give them a button (yes, again!) inviting them to take the next step.
