#233 Designing Sales Pages that Convert with Samantha Burmeister

Author: Emily Reagan | Digital Marketing Mentor, Speaker December 10, 2024 Duration: 57:09

Funnel Series #9

"Babe, where’s your call-to-action button? You’re never going to make a sale if people can’t click through and buy!" It’s a simple mistake, but one that can cost you big time. We’re digging into one of the most important elements of your funnel: the sales page and what makes it truly convert.

My guest is Samantha Burmeister, a skilled Sales Copywriter and the owner of Nomad Copy Agency. Sam writes really freakin good copy for service providers, especially when they're launching a new product or brand. She also runs Copy On Demand, a done-with-you copywriting membership where every business she works with learns to write copy that sounds like them but converts better. Sam is sharing her expertise on creating high-converting sales pages and what to expect in 2025 for sales page design and copywriting.

Listen to learn more about:

  • How to avoid common mistakes like overusing pain points and "introducing" in sales page copy
  • Why the "8 and 80 rule" is essential for writing compelling sales copy
  • How to know when to hire a professional copywriter for your business and the ROI of doing so
  • The shift from pain-point marketing to transformation-focused marketing and how it impacts your audience
  • The role of data analysis in understanding and improving your sales page conversion rates


Tune in so you can also learn how to position yourself in the high-value marketing space. The closer you are to the sale, the more you can charge—this is why top copywriters charge $10k-$20k for high-converting pages!
