How to optimize the sale of your online course using a landing page

A landing page is a page of entry, a page which takes the user directly to that he seeks. For example, when you click on a sponsored link or in a banner that is doing promotion of a shoe and is redirected to a page that takes you exactly to the announcement and shows how to buy it, this is the landing page.

The logic is that when you click on a link to a campaign, the customer should be directly routed to that proclamation offered, instead of being sent to a homepage, where will be hard to find what you are looking for.

Landing pages are sale pages and must be worked in an optimized way to achieve the expected result, sell your online course. Otherwise can mean the loss of potential customers.

In general, there are six fundamental elements on a successful Landing Page to sell online courses:

Sale proposal

• The main call: main idea of page (course name, theme of course, etc);
• Support call: text of support to the main call, an additional information (outbreak of course, how many modules have, promotional price, etc);
• Call of reinforcement: mentions the advantage, differential of course, information that proves your results;
• Closing argument: idea, sentence of impact in the end of the page.

Image or video

Use images, videos or some other multimedia element to show the customer a little bit of the course.
