A Simple Formula for Writing Super Clickable Button Copy

Successful landing pages tell stories that build in momentum and culminate with a super persuasive call to action.

It doesn’t matter how awesome the rest of your landing page is – a poorly-written CTA button can bring all that conversion momentum to a halt.

In this episode of the Call to Action podcast, we spoke with John Bonini, Director of Marketing at IMPACT, about the extraordinary results the company achieved from an A/B test – and what they learned about the anatomy of a compelling CTA.

In this episode you’ll learn…

• The subtle change in copy that increased IMPACT’s conversions by 78.5%.
• Signs that you should be updating the landing pages for your flagship content.
• What bookstores (and the best-seller section) can teach you about crafting copy that converts.
