Hey Brandon,

Sorry to hear about your poor conversion rates. I can definitely appreciate where you are coming from. For some this stuff clicks right away, for others it takes some work.

It's not because your budget is to small. You should be able to make any budget work. And when you are testing, it's best to keep things small.

There may be some other issues going on here, but at first glance, your biggest issue is your squeeze page. The layout is really displaying weird for me. The page is pulled apart and I need to scroll way down to the bottom of the page to even see your opt in box. And honestly, when I saw it, I thought it was an album cover. I had no idea it was an opt in field that I was supposed to click. I'm not a fan of how those TopSpin widgets look. Any little thing that slows a person down or causes even a moment of confusion will really hurt your conversion rate.

I've pasted a screen shot of what I see, in case it's not what you see.

I'd give the squeeze page template I offer here in the Insider Circle a try and see if that doesn't help. You could try things with the topspin widget but I'd really be curious to see if switching to Aweber helped. But I realize you probably don't want to incur any other expenses just yet. Just do what you can to make it very clear and mimic the layout I suggest in my lessons.

It will be harder to succeed with this stuff without MMM. But not impossible. The Insider Circle lessons are really meant to augment the fundamental lessons of MMM.

I'm surprised to hear that it's displaying okay for you. Copying html from an entire page into a wordpress page shouldn't work, which apparently it's not. However you can just drag the html page over to your site via FTP and it should display fine. You could also just purchase a second domain for the squeeze page which is what I do. Should only cost you an additional $10 a year. Let us know how you make out.

You know, it's really hard because you are using such a dramatically different template then I recommend. You are also omitting a lot of my copy suggestions, and using a different opt in form that doesn't display the opt in fields unless a person is on-the-ball enough to know they need to click. You also have a close option right at the top of the page that allows people to bypass the squeeze page altogether. All of these things are likely to hurt your conversions. I really suggest you try using my actual squeeze page template as a starting place and see if you can't improve things. Then you will at least have a base conversion rate to work with, and you can start customizing from there. 

You might also want to try just running right column ads for a little while so that you know you are at least getting people to click over to your page. Newsfeed ads will charge you for any interaction with your page, not just the squeeze page. So while you have 72 clicks on a newsfeed add, that might be considerably less people actually going to your squeeze page.

Cool. Glad to hear that others were saying the same thing. So have you started a new campaign, sending people to this new page (with Aweber). If so, what are the stats?

First thing to look at is targeting. What are your targeting selections? Please list all.

Gotcha. I think that's the problem. Your ads should be infinity more streamlined. I recommend only targeting one interest and country grouping per ad, and usually one ad per campaign. I group things like this: US/Canada – English Speaking Europe – Non-English Speaking Europe – Australia/New Zealand – Asia. And DO NOT select a language UNLESS you are looking for people within a nation that do not typically speak English. So for the US, you would select nothing. 

You also want to really tie your copy into the interest.

I'd also start with one location at first. make it work, and then expand. Don't try to create 5 different campaigns to start. Japan makes sense if that is where are performing the most. But then you want to really speak to the Japanese market. Even though they usually speak English, the subtleties will be lost on non native speakers. And this is all about communication. If you don't want to start off creating a Japanese funnel, I would start by just targeting the US and Canada. I would stay the heck away from markets like the Philippines. There is very little disposable income there. So it only makes sense if you are touring there and really have a market specific funnel.

It has a lot of important stuff in it that will help you.

Hi Brandon,

Facebook conversion tracking is way off. They will tell you this themselves. They can't track mobile, and a huge percentage of people are viewing on mobile. I just use it as a general gauge. But I go off of aweber stats. You shouldn't be sending any other type of traffic to the page with the dedicated web form on it, so that you can track the single traffic source. My guess is those conversions did come from the ad, but they came in through mobile. 

Just keep tweaking, one element at a time, and refresh your web form stats with each change so you can monitor how things are doing.

I worry that you are not connecting all of the dots because you haven't gone through MMM 3.0 which teaches the fundamental strategy you are ultimately trying to apply. The Insider Circle is really meant to be more of a tool for taking that fundamental strategy to the next level, and get more intimate support. But that's your call of course.
