Make It Easy for People to Buy – The Pros and Cons of Offering a Payment Plan on Your Sales Page

One option for your sales page is to offer your customers different payment plans. Instead of offering your product or service at a single price, you can offer a few different pricing options. A few ways to do this include:

Tiered Pricing. This is where you offer different price levels with different features. Subscription services often do this. The cheaper memberships have fewer features, and as you move up in price, you get more robust features.
Packages. Offer your standalone product or service, as well as a bundle or several bundles that include your product and various extras that go along with it.
Recurring Payments. You might have a product or service where you can take recurring payments or sell it on a payment plan. Instead of paying a lump sum, your customers can pay X amount per month until it's all paid.

How to Speak Your Audience's Language

In order to write an effective sales page, it's absolutely essential to speak the language of your target market. If you can manage this, it will resonate with your audience and they'll listen to your message. If you write in the wrong language, your audience will be turned off and click away.

You should also make sure you don't have any spelling, grammar, or usage mistakes.

Learn Your Audience's Language

The first step in learning your audience's language is to know exactly who your audience is. Research your target market and create an audience profile that includes whatever data you can discover about them.

For example, if you're using the word "online entrepreneur" but your audience generally says "Internet businessperson," the latter is what you should use for your sales page. Try to imitate the cadence, phrasing, word choice, and dialect they use. Avoid industry blogs and websites. Look for the voices of your genuine audience members speaking.
