Turning 1 dollar into 2


Turning 1 dollar into 2 is far easier than 0 into 1.

And yet, folk are still focusing on that 0 to one.

Yesterday I broke down the simple thought process and system to craft a compelling upsell that increases the AoV of each customer coming through.

Today I want to build on that and talk about how to craft a decent upsell page.

This is the basic flow I've used to help convert anywhere between 10% and 15% of customers to an upsell immediately.

Which, depending on your offer and markering, could easily be an extra couple of hundred bucks alone every day without changing much else.

Oh, and if you want the full template (and the Custom GPT I built to create the page for you), you can get them in GM+ here.

The basic flow for effective upsell pages is simple.

You have to capitalise on the feelings they have right now, and encourage more forward momentum.

Here's how that plays out in the template from a high level.

------------

First, thank them for the purchase they just made. It's only polite.

Next, get them excited about the outcome the first product they bought will enable for them. Remind them of what the new reality will be and get them to picture it.

That new reality is desirable, but it's not without problems. They'll be one step closer to their desired end state, but, there are now new problems.

Explain what the new issues they'll face are.

Next, say you've seen it before and you've created something to help them overcome those new problems. Explain what the solution is.

Get them to picture how this will further help them in their new reality.

Give them all of the details of the offer, including price, what's included, how it works etc.

Then you close with the offer itself. Mention the savings, potential gains etc. and hit them with the CTA to add it to their order.

----------

I've found this is the most effective way to improve your upsell take rate.

A lot of people will still ignore it. BUt, if you can get a decent number of people to buy, it could mean hundreds of dollars extra per day and thousands extra per month just by implementing a better format.

Yo! I'm taking a little break from emailing from tomorrow thanks to Christmas. If you're also celebrating, I hope you have a good one. But, before I go, I wanted to ask a Q that's heled me analyse what I'm doing and, more importantly, what I will be doing in 2026. That question is... "Are you aiming high enough or thinking big enough?" Cause I know I haven't. 2025 has been a hard year for so many people running businesses. Sales are down. Resistance is up. Stress is higher than ever before....

Yo, I recently shared this in GM+ (you can join us here for more convos on these topics), but also thought it might be useful for anyone who's thinking of testing ads for the first time, or growing to different platforms in the new year. ----- Wanted to share some of the things I’ve been working on with ads recently. This might be a long one. A little background. A couple of months back, I wanted to see if I could move some ad spend over to Google properties. A few reasons... Google has a...
