Clayton Makepeace – The Makepeace Method for Writing Video Sales Letters
The surest way I know to get from zero up to one million (dollars) in no time flat …
Dear Copywriter,
So far in this webinar series, I’ve shared my techniques for writing more effective copy in less time – a sure way to multiply your income many times over.
Now, in this report, I’m going to share one of the biggest secrets of my success with you. I’m also going to share a couple of things I use that could make ANY sales copy you write from 2 to 10 times better!
But the main thing I’m going to tell you about is the secret that turns a good living into a dream living.
It’s the one thing that can have marketing companies knocking on YOUR door — and willing to pay you more and more money.
Now I know, many of you will go on to make a good living. Better money than many people you know.
In fact, even though I’m a high school dropout, I make several times more money than my CPA, my lawyer, my dentist and my doctor.
COMBINED.
And of course, the icing on the cake is the lifestyle. Live where you want. Work when you want. “The writer’s life.”
But there is another way. The way I’ve refined after 40-plus years in the business.
It’s the way I’ve learned to increase my income year after year. And to always be in demand — with more work than I could possibly do.
Now, in case you think, “Aww, Clayton can do it. He’s one of the best. I can’t possibly have that kind of success.”
That kind of thinking is a lot of BULL
If you can write effective direct-response sales copy, the sky’s the limit for you.
It doesn’t matter what your background is. It doesn’t matter how much schooling you’ve had. It doesn’t matter if you’re man, woman, young, or old.
In this industry, everyone is equal. You’re rewarded for results.
Now, can I tell you something really personal?
Okay — here it is.
When I dropped out of high school in 1969, my biology teacher told me I’d never amount to anything.
My girlfriend’s mother told her I was a loser and convinced her to break up with me.
In the mid-1970s, I was working away for a tiny $15,000-a-year salary. And on this, I was supposed to support my family. But then I stumbled onto this business. And I’ve never looked back.
My income jumped to $70,000 my first year as a copywriter. Then it quickly soared to $300,000 … $500,000 … then $750,000 a year.
And since 1995, I’ve regularly banked paychecks of as high as $1 million a year and even $1.4 million in a single month.
Plus, the lifestyle and freedom are the things that really make this all worthwhile.
I’ve produced winners for my clients while soaking up the rays on a beach in California …
At picnic tables with 100-mile views on the Blue Ridge Parkway …
At five-star hotels and resorts from San Francisco to Key West, and New York to LA …
At a $45-million spa resort in the Appalachian Mountains …
And on two occasions, in the owner’s suites of luxury cruise ships bound for exotic places throughout the Caribbean!
Listen, it took me a lifetime to come to this — my greatest secret of success
I’ve been in this business over 42 years. I’ve seen it all in marketing, and done it all. Even invented more than a few of the things that make a huge difference in marketing.
But this secret is hands-down my biggest secret ever. It’s the game-changer. The transformer. The secret weapon that lets me make more and more money … even after all this time in the business.
The secret that lets me keep “snowballing” my income year after year.
Now I’m not talking about greed … or an insatiable desire to have more and more.
I’m just sayin’ that if you’re going to do the thing, and make a career of it … why not do it so it’s kind of stacked in your favor?
And let me show you how this applies to you and the people who need you most — your clients.
First, let’s look at what this could mean with past clients:
Let’s say you’ve been a copywriter for a while. You’ve had a few different clients along the way. Now, if you just go back to them and say, “Hey! I’m available now,” they’re going to think you’re just fishing for work.
But if you go back to them with a big benefit: “Hey! Just wanted to let you know that I’m really excited about certain techniques companies are using to grow their business faster than they ever thought possible. I’d love to talk to you about the latest formats that are doubling, tripling, and even quadrupling response rates,” well … I think they’re a lot more likely to sit up and take notice.
Second — what does it mean for you with present clients?
Well, let’s look at this basic question:
What’s the biggest challenge in keeping a good client?
Of course it’s keeping their attention! Always being the one they think of when they think of a project.
Now, if your method of keeping attention is to keep giving them quality work, well, that’s okay. But you risk someone coming in and offering that big benefit I just talked to you about. All of a sudden, they’ve got the attention, and you — who should be the first to pop into their mind for something — are playing catch-up to an invader on your turf.
The turf YOU worked real hard to claim.
So keep the romance alive by bringing them new and important benefits of your relationship.
And finally, for luring and landing high-paying future clients:
What do most marketers ask for and most copywriters supply to prove their value to a client?
A portfolio! A sampling of good work that they’ve done.
Fact is, that is NOT the best way.
Showing them that you can lead them into the future and to greater success changes your position drastically — blowing even A-level copywriters out of the water.
Capisce?
Really, everything I’ve been talking about here is about separating the “extraordinary” from the “ordinary.”
And it has everything to do with your path to success.
Let me explain just a little more about the difference this can make in your career.
The first version of success I like to call a “flattop” pattern.
That’s where you find a niche — maybe writing content, or financial copy, or health copy — and you become known in it, you make good money, your clients keep coming back, and life is grand.
But if you look at a chart of it, you can see the “flattop” — you reach your pinnacle in your niche and gains in income become incremental.
But there is another version of success where you are not confined by a “groove.” Your income is not trapped in a range.
Instead, it can look more like a snowball rolling down a hill — getting bigger and bigger and bigger.
You want your income to grow, and your demand as “THE go-to person” to grow, and you want the quality of your clients to get better and better.
And this, my friends, is the secret to what is letting me enjoy the life of my dreams.
Now I don’t know what your dreams are, but mine have worked out pretty well.
Instead of having to decide whether I’m going to pay the phone bill or the electric bill (believe me — I’ve been there) …
I have to decide things like whether I’m going to spend a few weeks in my million-dollar home on an island in the Gulf of Mexico …
… or at my luxurious 25-acre estate (complete with my own private trout stream) in the heart of the Smoky Mountains?
Or whether I want a new Porsche, Hummer, or Beemer …
Or whether I want to give my wife a new Mercedes, a new Harley, or both?
Listen, I don’t want to go on and on about my blessings, but I think you get what I mean.
I have seen too many people achieve great success not to believe that you can do it too.
Now, maybe your dreams and desires aren’t as big as mine.
Maybe you’d be happy just not having to stress about money and be able to take an extra vacation each year.
Maybe you’re somewhere in the middle.
Point is — with what I’m going to show you, YOU have the power to determine what you want and get it.
And that means all the way up to what I call “silly money” — when cost is no factor in whatever your heart desires. Some people call it “bug-off” money (or say it a little more colorfully).
Basically it means you don’t have to kiss anybody’s butt for anything.
Whatever your heart’s desire, the secret I’m going to show you today can help you have it
Now maybe some of you have already guessed what it is.
I’m talking about Video Sales Letters, or VSLs as we call them.
Standard Internet marketing and even direct mail will always be with us, but VSLs are the wave of the future.
And I can tell you from my own experience that they just continue to grow in use and importance.
So why is it such an advantage?
The answer is simple.
According to eMarketer, online video was the fastest growing ad format in 2012 with nearly 55% growth.
According to Internet Retailer, 52% of consumers say that watching product videos makes them more confident in their online purchase decisions. And, when a video is information-intensive, 66% of consumers will watch the video two or more times.
Website Magazine says its consumers are willing to watch videos 60% of the time they are found, and 52% of consumers report that they are less likely to return a product after viewing a video.
Enterprise search provider Attivio found that pages with video attracted 2-3 times as many monthly visitors, doubled time on-site, and achieved a 157% increase in organic traffic from search engines.
According to Bytemobile Mobile Analytics Report, online video now accounts for 50% of all mobile traffic and up to 69% of traffic on certain networks.
There are many more statistics, but you get the picture.
I’ve developed my own method for snowballing your income with the use of VSLs
It’s called The Makepeace Method for Making a Fortune Writing Video Sales Letters. I call it The Makepeace Method for short.
But this program is more than just a “how-to” about how to write a wildly successful VSL script.
I’m also going to show you everything that goes along with it — knowledge that can make you an expert on VSLs and Internet marketing. That places you light-years ahead of most copywriters.
Now, I don’t want you to be intimidated. I know you may think that VSLs are very hard to do.
Nonsense.
My system is so easy to follow a child could do it.
And in it are the secrets to how I became one of the highest-paid copywriters.
So let me give you a look at what you’ll get when you join The Makepeace Method:
You’ll get the core of my system in 8 Sessions you can watch on video or listen to on audio, complete with printouts — teaching you the “heart and soul” of the system I’ve developed that consistently produces multimillion-dollar VSLs.
Just so you understand, you won’t find my system anywhere else. This is the result of all my years of writing and marketing, trial and error, and testing and testing and testing.
Frankly, it would take most people years to put together anything like what I have. And even if they took the trouble … they probably wouldn’t have the variety of experience I’ve had, and be able to reveal all the tricks and techniques I do.
Once you’re armed with this system, you’re in a position to not only teach clients things they need to know, but you’ll also be ahead of thousands of copywriters who would like to do this but won’t know anywhere NEAR what you know.
Personally, I know of only one group of marketers producing VSLs on this level — and they’re NOT teaching anyone.
But my philosophy is a little different — I think if there were some more people who could do this, it would be good for all of us.
So I’ve carved out the time to create this program and try to get some of you up to where you could help some of the companies I work with, or better yet — help ME with a client who’s got a need greater than I can supply!
So let me give you just a few little teases of the essential secrets you’ll learn in my Method:
In Session One, I’ll show you how to use VSLs to attract million-dollar clients
This is what lands you the dream clients you want — clients who are:
- Fun to work with (you want clients who appreciate you and work with you — you don’t want to have to work with difficult clients, or clients who see you as someone they have to manage or control) …
- Clients who want you to be successful (that means they understand your value to their business — and they’re happy to pay you big money to be a key part of making their business grow) …
- Clients who are trustworthy and who will pay you (they’ll show you the results of their marketing and pay you promptly — they won’t just hand you a check and say, “This is for the last month.” You can count on them paying you what they owe you and do it promptly without having to ask them) …
- You want clients who are honest and careful about obeying the law and all governing regulations (you DON’T want a client who is willing to risk trouble with regulatory agencies) …
- And finally, you want clients who have great potential for growth. That means that when you give them great marketing, they’re going to succeed and will be able to pay you more and more money!
Now, you don’t have to figure out HOW to attract these clients. I’ll teach you my personal secrets for how to find and land the ideal clients.
You see, I have a foolproof 5-step process for FINDING these clients. Just follow the steps I’ll give you and you’re bound to land your dream clients.
Then, I’ll show you my simple 10-step process for communicating with and LANDING these clients. Again, this is a step-by-step process laid out for you like a roadmap.
(Remember, this isn’t based on theory or limited experience like some would-be “gurus” will give you — these steps are based on my experience in over 40 years of finding and landing the very best clients there are.)
Next, I’ll give you the 7 key questions to ask a prospective client. The knowledge you will get from their answers to these will put you ahead of 99% of the copywriters they deal with.
Bottom line, I’ll walk you through every step of finding and landing these clients, and even show you what to say and how to approach them with an irresistible offer.
Plus, I’ll even show you how to have material to show your prospective clients when you’ve never even done a paid VSL assignment!
Next, in Session Two, I’m going to show you 14 ways to make your VSL a huge success
First, I’ll give you a simple two-step system that can help you write a winning VSL in as little as TWO DAYS.
In Step 1, we’ll create the structure for your VSL.
In Step 2, I’ll show you how to “hang the meat on the bone” of what you’ve created. At this point, you’re already writing it!
- I’ll show you how to add in elements to cement your points in the VSL — things like quotes, factoids, charts, tables, or third-party information. This is the “secret sauce” that gives your VSL unbeatable credibility — and gains the trust and confidence of your prospect.
- Also, I’ll show you the 3 simple things to ALWAYS include in a VSL to quickly double or even triple your results …
- My 2 favorite “persuasion strategies” to connect with your prospect and cement your relationship with him …
- How to avoid the “Deadliest Sin” in a VSL that could cause your prospect to turn you right off (all it takes is a single click and you’re gone!) …
- 5 simple tips to eliminate confusion in your video (that’s another “Deadly Sin”) …
Now, some people will give you a little information on how to write a VSL — and then it stops there!
But having a million-dollar VSL is NOT just about writing the VSL — it’s about all the stuff that goes with it! That’s why writing it is really just the beginning …
In Session Three, you’ll learn that it’s all about eyeballs!
The more sets of eyeballs you get to see your video, the greater the success it can be.
Now there are some simple ways to do this — but there’s a good chance your client may not even know all of what you’re going to know.
So I’ll start by showing you the 8 best ways to drive traffic to your VSL (again, you’ll be showing your clients things they very possibly won’t know — AND make sure you’re getting the biggest royalties you can) …
Then, there are 5 things you MUST DO once your prospect reaches the end of your VSL (you’ll be amazed how few copywriters and marketers use all five — most only use one or maybe two … so they’re leaving money on the table).
Then I’ll explain the 2 types of prospects you will be dealing with — and why you have to approach each one differently to guarantee response …
Plus you’ll get some juicy tidbits from my personal toolbox, that help make my VSLs so successful … like the 7 secrets to powerful traffic-driving emails, and the 5 key elements to traffic-driving banners …
Next, in Session Four, I’m going to teach you about how your VSL is presented
You see, your VSL does NOT exist in a vacuum. It is hosted on a web page.
That gives you plenty of real estate to work with above, below, and beside the video window.
Plus, the web programmer should be able to have anything you like appear outside of this window, any time you like during your presentation (if not, tell your client that they’re leaving money on the table).
You’ll learn 5 tricks you can do that will maximize what you can do with the page and enhance the effectiveness of your video …
And I’ll show you exactly how to write these things into the script — so everyone can understand what you’re calling for and it can get executed exactly as you want it!
I’ll show you the secret of the “mini-site” — this is something almost nobody knows how to use. But once you’ve written your script … it’s EASY to do (I’ll show you exactly what they are and how to set one up) …
And, I’ll show you what you should NOT have to worry about … these are things that are not normally your responsibility, and if you do them, you should charge extra. This helps keep a very professional profile for you with your client. You do not want to try to be anything they need. That is not your job!
Next, in Session Five, I’m going to show you what I call “The art of the deal”
You see, you can’t negotiate successfully with a client if you don’t understand what you’re worth to them.
Remember, at this point in my program, you are no longer just a copywriter. You have become an online marketing strategist, and a VSL specialist!
Also, I’m going to show you how your negotiations are not confrontational. Many people don’t understand this. They state their fees and demand a “yes” or “no” answer.
Wrong, wrong, wrong.
What you want to do is COLLABORATE with your client to find a solution that works for everyone. So if your client objects to your standard fee, I’ll show you 6 different ways you can propose to structure your deal that all work out to pretty much the same money for you in the end.
Also, being so flexible really shows your client that you’re willing to work with them, while keeping your very professional profile and NOT just dropping your fees!
Next, I’ll show you the 6 common structures for your deal, and 2 of what I call “interesting wrinkles.” These have to do with the retainer you get, and either way you come out a winner!
I’ll show you the standard money deals and where to start. And I’ll show you 2 ways to structure your royalty deal — and they both work out the same for you! (This is good, because it’s a fact that some businesses like to calculate their profits one way, and others like to calculate another way. It’s good for you to understand so either way they propose, you know how to wind up where you want to be.)
I’ll also show you the key parts of the deal that protect your interests all the way to the bank! It’s to your advantage that all of these are written into the agreement.
And I’ll show you my 7 “Pot Sweeteners” — juicy tidbits to add to the deal that actually pay off big in the long run.
In Session Six, I’m going to show you how to put together those essential components that go along with a VSL
A lot of people don’t pay attention to these and just copy what other people do — which is a big mistake.
Again, these are my personal techniques that have been proven again and again to capture people who might leave the video at any stage and convert them into buyers. When you have a good system in place, you can save 15% or more of people you might otherwise lose.
And this, of course, translates into 15% more royalty money for you. And the more you do it, the more sales you save, and that extra money accumulates over time. “Snowball.”
Plus, I’ll show you how to do an order form or order page several different ways (you can have your client test many of the things I show you to see what works best). And I’ll show you my “Bread Crumb” method of making it so easy for someone to order they’re far less likely to get intimidated by the process.
I repeat — very few people give these things the attention they deserve. When you add up all the methods, techniques, and secrets I’m going to share with you, you wind up with an arsenal that puts you miles ahead of your competition.
In fact, once you talk to a prospective client — you’ll be able to discuss things with them that almost no one else will think to do!
Okay, bear with me just a couple of more minutes, and I’m going to tell you about something very special I’m going to share with you also.
First, though, let me finish up my system of writing million-dollar VSLs (frankly, many of them have brought in several million) …
In Session Seven, I’m going to share with you 8 great ways to test your VSL to make sure you’re getting the absolute best response possible
You know, so many marketers just test one element on a VSL. But there are really quite a few things you can — and should — do to get the best results for your client AND you.
For example, I’m going to show you 5 basic types of headlines. Now — would you test two versions of the same type? Maybe. But usually you’re better off testing different types of headlines.
Plus, I’ll reveal my “21 Questions” you should answer BEFORE you even begin to write a headline.
Then I’ll show you how to test your traffic drivers, your offer, and figure out if you want to “serialize” your promo, or create a course, or a “rolling webinar.”
And finally, I’ll show you how to create a squeeze page to go in your marketing plan, and I’ll give you some models to work off of to get you started.
You may be getting tired of hearing me say this, but this is really far and above what most people give you as a plan for writing VSLs. They stick pretty much to the writing of the script, and ignore all the extras that can keep your VSL alive and performing well for twice as long.
Finally, in Session Eight, I’m going to wrap up the whole thing for you and tie a bow around it
I mean I’m going to go over everything you need to know to produce your own video (you can make one to show clients that proves you know what you’re talking about!).
We’ll start with my 5-step process to take you from writing your video right up to posting it online.
And I’ll give you my 9 rules of thumb for production of your slides.
I’ll tell you all the technical equipment you need to produce your own video, and even where to get it. I’ll even walk you through the technical steps in creating your own video.
And finally, I’ll give you my 12 “Commandments” to help make sure your VSL will get the maximum viewership and response.
Of course, we’ll be going over very successful VSLs and scripts as we do all this, and you’ll have the start of your very own personal “Swipe File” — extremely successful videos you can use to help you with structure and ideas as you work on your VSL.
I’ll tell you honestly — I’ve seen a few people teach a quick seminar on how to write a VSL. But I haven’t seen anything like what I’ve created for you … that covers every angle so completely.
And I don’t mean to brag, but my system has been proven to produce million-dollar VSLs again and again.

But I’m still not done.
Remember when I promised to help you make any sales copy you write from 2 to 10 times better?
Well, let me tell you how I’m going to do that …
First of all, I’ll make available to you my presentation on How to Make Your Benefits Sparkle.
This is available as an audio and a video, along with printable PowerPoint slides. And here I’ll teach you my basic secrets to lifting your copy to the highest level. And you do this by making your benefits transcend the normal.
Too many copywriters fall back on simply talking about the features of their product.
Big mistake.
What you want to do is not tell your reader how your product is great … you want to SHOW your reader why your product is the answer to their deepest desires and worst fears.
The secret here is connecting with your reader on the core personal level, and driving their interest in your product.
This is how you elevate your copy beyond your competition.
And remember, this applies to your headlines too — the single thing that can make or break a promotion and drastically impact your relationship with your client.
Finally, related to this last point, I’d like to share with you my Headline Starter Ideas package.
Now this is pure gold. Your headline (or Big Idea) can be as much as 80% of the success of your promotion. You can slave away writing the best promo you can, but if the headline falls flat — so does your promotion, and so does your client’s sales.
This package includes 40 different ideas (with blockbusting examples) for nailing your headline. Whatever your project, looking over these ideas will give you a number of alternatives for how to dive into your project and hook your reader.
