As promised, here’s another NHB Toolbox opener.
It’s one of the notorious cocky/confident openers and should be used where you really need to shock the customer, jolt them to get their attention.
Works extremely well in a saturated market where there is a lot of noise.
This thing walks in the room and tells everyone to STFU and pay attention.
It’s known as the X opener, and it was written cica 2010 for a ClickBank launch that
hit #1 the same day it launched.
This offer generated roughly 65,000 sales in a few months and went down as one of the all-time great offers.
This can be used on VSLs or Ads…not so much for webinars IMO.
As for ads, it’ll hit extra hard on YouTube as it’s designed to cut through noise like a hypersonic missile.
Here’s the opener:
You don’t even deserve to be on this page…
Have you ever seen an X on a treasure map?
What if I told you , “You’re sitting on it…and you don’t realize it yet…”
What if I told you you’ve just stumbled onto a goldmine beyond anything you could’ve ever dreamed up…
You have no clue as to the power of what you are about to be offered…
But whether you know it or not…
You ARE just 10 clicks away from..
the only software tool that taps into a completely new, completely unexposed cash juggernaut that’s about 100 times bigger than Clickbank!
Yeah. I said 100 time bigger than Clickbank….and about 200 times bigger than every single Internet marketing launch put together…
We’re talking about a NEW money making universe…
where even the Rankest newbie can rake in $500, $600 and even $1,000 per day
Starting Now!!
Without breaking a sweat…and without spending ANY serious time in front of a computer screen.
You’re about to be handed your own exclusive VIP pass to tap those kinds profits within minutes..
You ain’t in Kansas anymore, Dorthy…And that’s why this may NOT be for you…
I’m betting 90% of you will run from this message like scared little girls..
My suggestion? Go back to your old life…another uneventful day being you..
And wait for next big product launch from somebody named named Kern, Jenkins or Reese to end your financial problems forever…
Because…
if every strategy you know of for making money online MUST involve the words Clickbank and Google…
This ain’t for you…
This is not for you if you’re convinced it’s IMPOSSIBLE to make more while working less or not at all..
This is not for you if you are uneasy about sneaking up on other 8 figure super affiliates and shamelessly pumping a hefty slice of their cash profits effortlessly into your own bank account…
If that sounds like something you’re not ready for…
You might want to head back over to Facebook, Youtube or some other site that keeps you distracted from your failure…
Believe it or not I could care less WHAT you do next
I’ve got the money and the students I need!!
This is NOT for you…
And it will NEVER be for you…
BUT…
If you’re open to the idea of cutting ahead of the pack.
If you can see yourself exploiting technology to work less or barely at all…while laughing all the way to the bank…while everyone else in our industry remains a slave to their workload…
And you want to do it easily…
- Without any Google
- Without Any Yahoo or Bing.
- Without any Clickbank
- Without writing single piece of content.
- Without learning a single HTML code..
- Without a product.
- Without building a list.
- Without a domain name.
- Without any connections…
- Without a SINGLE marketable skill your name…
- Without any media buys…
- Without kissing butt to any pompous CPA network
If that’s you… I want you to sit back…shut up…. and listen up.
Because you do need to hear this…
Here’s the ironic thing…
Go back 3 years….I was just like you…Hell I was you.
—————
Now to break it down for ya so you know how to modify it / use it in your own copy.
And yes, you can make it hit harder or soften it up.
The Breakdown:
Have you ever seen an X on a treasure map?
→ You can substitute this to say…Have you seen or had a client wire you a $25,000 check for you to write a sales letter?
*→ Have you ever weighed 120 pounds and been a size 3?
→ Have you ever been dumped?
This statement asks a hard hitting question that is either a YES or a NO. Go for something tha thas a yes.*
What if I told you , “You’re sitting on it…and you don’t realize it yet…”
→ This statement says that they already have what it takes but don’t realize it yet. It makes them feel good and gives them hope.
→ So you can say…”What if I told you, that you have everything that it takes to make 10, 15, 25k per gig as a copywriter, and you don’t realize it yet?”
→ Or “What if I told you that you’re watching a video that’ll show you how to exactly that and you don’t realize it yet?”
What if I told you you’ve just stumbled onto a goldmine beyond anything you could’ve ever dreamed up…
→ This statement opens the doors in to the new world, a new life, where anything is possible. Their wildest dreams and desires are about to become real.
→ So you can say somethig like “What if I told you, that you just stumbled onto the only place in the entire industry that’s beyond anything you could’ve dreamed of as a copywriter?”
→ or “What if I told you…you’ve just stumbled to a secret that’s going to allow you to finally lose 10, 20, or even 30 pounds without BLANK and it’ll BLANk beyond anything you could’ve dreamed up”…
You have no clue as to the power of what you are about to be offered…
But whether you know it or not…
→ This hits hard to take away any thoughts they might have about what it is. You think you know, but that ain’t it chief!
→ So you can say something like “ you have no clue as to the opportunity of what you’re about to be offered, but whether you know it or not…
→ Or you might say “You have no idea as to the new life you’re about to experience, whether you know it or not…
You ARE just 10 clicks away from..
the only software tool that taps into a completely new, completely unexposed cash juggernaut that’s about 100 times bigger than Clickbank!
→ This line tells them what it is they’re away from…software, system, formula, community, opporutnuty, tool…typically in something that allows for the outcome they want.
→ You can say something like “You are just 10 steps away from” or “just 3 minutes away from” or “ 3 clicks away from”, etc…then go into “new or different” that allows for the outcome to take place, that’s bigger and better than anything else they’ve seen or of heard before. Really amps up that “wow, holy shit I can’t believe this is happening for me”.
Yeah. I said 100 time bigger than Clickbank….and about 200 times bigger than every single Internet marketing launch put together…
We’re talking about a NEW money making universe…
where even the Rankest newbie can rake in $500, $600 and even $1,000 per day
→ This here takes what was said previously and kicks it up to a whole new level of energy, we’re talking a gallon of caffeine and 10 red bulls hitting at once.
→ So you can say “Yeah” or “that’s right”, then put the outcome that’s just massive to what they want…so “Yeah I said 10, 25, 50k clients like clockwork — clients that choose you and don’t even think about working with anyone else.
→ Then it’s the entry into the new universe…”We’re talking about (what are you really talking about here?) make it hit…
→ Where even the…here you put who else, like people of lesser value and skill are being able to crush it using this.
Starting Now!!
Without breaking a sweat…and without spending ANY serious time in front of a computer screen.
→ This statement says when…timeline language (for those in NHB+ you know how powerful this is from our call we did yesterday), this indicates that it’s going to happen…NOW, not later, not in the future, but NOW. NOW is one of the most poweful words in copywriting.
→ Then it’s the classic “WITHOUT” this removes all the things that suck and doing the work, so all the things that are like “ugh shit I really don’t wanna do that” this pulls tha tright now, leaivng nothing but green pastures of good feels in front of them.
You’re about to be handed your own exclusive VIP pass to tap those kinds profits within minutes..
You ain’t in Kansas anymore, Dorthy…And that’s why this may NOT be for you…
→ This statement goes into as to what they’re going to be given. Remember, if you give them something, the response ALWAYS goes up. They must get more than they give, and here we give them something.
→ But it tells them that it’s no more time to play…no more fucking around, it’s time to crush it. SO it goes into “You aint’ just an amateur copywriter any more…You’re about to step into the big leagues and that’s why this MAY NOT be for you…” The MAY NOT leave a door open that it may be for them, which it is…so good.
I’m betting 90% of you will run from this message like scared little girls..
My suggestion? Go back to your old life…another uneventful day being you..
And wait for next big product launch from somebody named named Kern, Jenkins or Reese to end your financial problems forever…
→ Now we get to a little bit of “I know that you need me more than I need you”. This shifts the entire balance of power to you. Because it pushes away 90% of people. It also challenges the audience that they’ll be scared which intrigues them even more. Mostly for male audiences of course, for women, make it gentler.
→ So you can say “I’m betting that 90% of you won’t qualify to get this”….my suggestion is go back to joining copywriting masterminds hoping to get clients and wait for someone to reach out to you on Facebook after you’ve made dozens of posts offering to work for free. See how much soul this has? It hits deep.
→ OR you say…”I’m betting 90% of you won’t even try this, because you don’t really want to lose weight”…”My suggestion is go back to doing keto, counting calories or taking snake oil supplements.
→ The line “and wait” that makes them feel like they’re going back in line, which you can also say “and get back in line and wait your turn.
Because…
if every strategy you know of for making money online MUST involve the words Clickbank and Google…
This ain’t for you…
This is not for you if you’re convinced it’s IMPOSSIBLE to make more while working less or not at all..
This is not for you if you are uneasy about sneaking up on other 8 figure super affiliates and shamelessly pumping a hefty slice of their cash profits effortlessly into your own bank account…
→ This now hits and destroys everything they know…so you say if every strategy for getting clients involves posting free content, doing free sales calls and getting rejected, then this aint’ for you.
→ Or…if every strategy you know about getting dates involves trying to look cute on Tinder, bumble and other dating apps…this ain’t for you”
→ Then it does a little bit of that unfair advantage to it…where it says if you’re uneasy about (getting an unfair advantage)….
If that sounds like something you’re not ready for…
You might want to head back over to Facebook, Youtube or some other site that keeps you distracted from your failure…
Believe it or not I could care less WHAT you do next
I’ve got the money and the students I need!!
This is NOT for you…
And it will NEVER be for you…
→ More pushing away here…I really don’t give two F’s what you do. And it also challenges them not that they can’t do it, but rather are not READY for that level of success, again stoking the fear and challenging them to jolt them awake.
→ So you can say “Believe it or not…I could not care if you spend the next 10 years chasing clients or hop in here and do this with US, we got more clients than we can handle.”
→ OR…”It might sound like something you’re not ready for…you might want to head back to Youube and watch more videos that tell you how to lose weight but don’t really work, because if they did…you wouldn’t be here watching this video”
BUT…
If you’re open to the idea of cutting ahead of the pack.
If you can see yourself exploiting technology to work less or barely at all…while laughing all the way to the bank…while everyone else in our industry remains a slave to their workload…
And you want to do it easily…
- Without any Google
- Without Any Yahoo or Bing.
- Without any Clickbank
- Without writing single piece of content.
- Without learning a single HTML code..
- Without a product.
- Without building a list.
- Without a domain name.
- Without any connections…
- Without a SINGLE marketable skill your name…
- Without any media buys…
- Without kissing butt to any pompous CPA network
→ This is the catch in a catch…the BUT…and the IF…if you’re open to the idea of getting all this benefit, and if you can see yourself taking the short cut to all of your goals and dreams, WITHOUT all that hard work, then hell…
If that’s you… I want you to sit back…shut up…. and listen up.
Because you do need to hear this…
Here’s the ironic thing…
Go back 3 years….I was just like you…Hell I was you.
→ If that’s you…this is an identity statement “that is me”…and I suggest yous often this one or you can go full-on cocky with it, up to you.
→ If that’s you…I want you to ignore Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, don’t even think about answering that text message and listen up…
→ Because you NEED To hear this
→ Go back 3 years…I was you, the energy fell and we get into building rapport.

Some interesting notes on this offer…this was the first time we actually went to Madison Avenue and found someone who was a pro at calibrating vocal tonality and got them to coach the person speaking on it.
That allowed us to create massive vocal projection and that’s one of the best-kept secrets I never shared outside of my close circle of marketing friends.
The fact that your tonality will greatly affect your conversion rates.
And those that are natural masters of it tend to crush it on webinars, VSLs and anywhere else…
…You can have the best copy with shit tonality and it won’t do well.
As always, NHB amigios, questions, comments, likes and love below or a good ol’ bump for the algo so everyone can see this and get value from it.
MOAR to come.

P.s. I know I promised the eulogy opener, which I will share…just need to figure out how to share that so it doesn’t come off a little extra dark lol.The X Opener – “You don’t deserve to use this opener”…

Post Addendum #1:
The offer was called «First Sale Online». This is a key to a good mass market offer, that assumes and implies that it’s their first, so you can do your 1st coaching client, your 1st 7 figures, your 1st eCom store, etc…
