Copywriter Club emails

Subject: Well, that was a relief.
You just had the perfect discovery call with a client you just love and who
seems to love you. Done.
They made all the right noises, smiled and nodded in all the right places when
you were showing how much you understood their problems and clearly had
the ideal answer for them wrapped up in a neat little bow.
They didn’t flinch when you talked about price, especially as you called it
“investment” because that’s a much less scary word.
They agreed enthusiastically when you spoke about “next steps”
.
They even agreed with you that pineapple has no place on pizza, and milk has
no place in coffee. Not just the ideal client, but a potential BFF.
All the lights are set to green.
All you need to do now is write and send the proposal, and the deal’s in the
bag.
What could possibly go wrong?
Gulp.
What about those prospects who were so great on the discovery call and
then ghosted you as soon as the proposal email landed?
Or the ones who are still on your “possibles” list three months after they
emailed you with a quick “I’ll get back to you”?
Or those who said, “we don’t have the budget for that” after you’d spent hours
if not days pitching them and pulling together the perfect proposal to answer
all their needs, including the ones they didn’t know they had.
Maybe those lights are ever so slightly amber.
Not all perfect prospects convert.
There may be trouble ahead.
But worry not.
I think I have the solution. It would be unfair for me to give you the perfect
lead gen system and not finish the job with something to actually land them.
