MRR Product: Order Buttons for Your Sales Page

I’m in the process of developing my first infoproduct, and with the ebook now complete, my next step is to write a sales page for the product. One of the elements on the sales page, of course, will be the ‘order button’.

Rather than using an unattractive, nondescript button, I’d like the order button to be colorful and classy. I did some research, and finally settled upon a suite of buttons that gave me everything I wanted and more. In addition to order buttons, there are also buttons to subscribe, join now, download, sign up now, and more.

Not only that, but the package I ordered came with full Master Resale Rights. This mean I not only can resell the product, but I can resell the rights to resell the product as well. So I’m happy.

Editing ‘From the Desk of’ and Date Sections

Typically, when you purchase products with sales rights, you also get a sales page that must be customized and uploaded to your web host’s servers. There are just a few elements on the sales page that need editing.

The first section is in the salutation area of the sales page. There are two text changes to be made here. One is to put your name in the “From:” section. Easy enough.

Just below that is the date. The sales page I received was set up with a static date, but I wanted the sales page to reflect the current day and date. This can be done easily with one of the many widely available snippets of Javascript code. All you need to do is copy and paste this code into the HTML document following the “Date:” section. Here’s the snippet I used:

<script language=”JavaScript”>
<!–
var now = new Date();
var days = new Array(
‘Sunday’,'Monday’,'Tuesday’,
‘Wednesday’,'Thursday’,'Friday’,'Saturday’);
var months = new Array(
‘January’,'February’,'March’,'April’,'May’,
‘June’,'July’,'August’,'September’,'October’,
‘November’,'December’);
var date = ((now.getDate()<10) ? “0″ : “”)+ now.getDate();
function fourdigits(number)    {
return (number < 1000) ? number + 1900 : number;}
today =  days[now.getDay()] + “, ” +
months[now.getMonth()] + ” ” +
date + “, ” +
(fourdigits(now.getYear()));
document.write(today);
//–>
</script>

Editing Price and Closing Information

There are some additional text edits on the lower part of the page that must be completed as well. These include removing the generic place holder for a name, and putting your name in instead. The original page designer made it easy to identify the phrases that need editing by using a pink font color. Don’t leave them pink, however – that color was just used to draw your eye to it for editing purposes.

Two more edits are needed. One is a simple text edit of the price you want to charge. The rights to this product specify that you cannot give the product away, you must sell it. But you can decide on the selling price.

I changed the price on the sales page from $17.00 to $5.00 – which both meets the terms of service and creates what I hope is an irresistible offer to my customers.

Payment Processing and Product Downloading

There is one more edit needed on the sales page. The sales page includes an ‘order now’ button, but that button is not clickable. The button needs to have the payment processing code embedded. From the customer’s perspective, two things have to happen:

1. Pay for the product

2. After payment, be redirected to the download page.

I will cover each of these steps in my next two posts. And when I’ve got it all put together, you’ll be able to pickup this same package. It includes over 250 professionally-designed buttons, 28 guarantee seals, and Master Resale Rights.
