When setting up landing pages you need to give serious consider to the type of customer you will be speaking to in order to make your sales pages high-converting.

Here’s what I mean by this...

Let’s take a closer look at the 3 types of people who may want to buy what you are selling. They are: The Enlightened, The Troubled, and The Unaware.

What is the difference between these 3 customers, you ask?

The Enlightened are people who are well aware of you, your product and their problem that needs solving. They are knowledgeable about other products that solve their issues and they need to know which product is the best one to purchase... and why.

The Troubled are those who are aware that they have a problem that needs a solution, and they want to solve it as fast as they possibly can. They are just not sure how to go about doing that.

The Unaware are people who have a problem in their life that they don’t really see it as being a problem. They simply accept it as part of life. So, they are not actively looking for a fix because they don’t even know something is in need of fixing.

How this applies to your landing or sales pages we will get into next...

Thank you, I have never thought of it this way.
More work to do, but it stays exciting!

Of course🙂 I am trying to pull together resources for learning more about landing pages. I was calling for input or landung pages to build another with team input for A/B split testing. I think maybe people think I am a goon or not understanding what I am talking about. So I get the feeling this might help out the community. I think we are all so busy crafting we sites and making through trainings that we forget there is a team of colleagues here to help.
Okok i am a goon,
Sincerely,
Nurse Becca

Thank you, I was unaware that I was troubled by this subject, but now, thanks to you I have joined the enlightened. Well, at least I am on the path to enlightenment.

I appreciate this Trish. I don't use landing pages at all but if I ever do, I will take your advice. I thought of my post titles however and how they address the 3 types of customers you mention. I think most of mine all fall in the Enlightened and the Troubled catagories. The Enlightened are those looking for specific products for their health or their pet's health (depending on which of my websites they come to). They may be deciding between the best brands of grain free cat food for example, or cat behavior aids.

The Troubled have a serious problem like a sick pet that they want to help but have no idea how or a cat peeing around the house and they are desperate to fix the problem. I have post titles that address both of these groups but I never thought of breaking the groups down as specifically as you have here. Thanks!

I also agree that landing pages that ask questions can be a huge turn off. I would click away if a page started asking me questions. I want to look for information, not be quizzed. Speaking directly to a person is a much better approach.

Hey Jessica,

Never thought about the actual posts... but with landing pages you would use those for, say, Facebook ads. Having the 3 types of customers, each with their own ad linked to their own landing page has proven to work well.
