Well although it isn't exactly a 4hww type muse (though the way I have set it up it could be) here is an idea I have come up with.

www.thegmatcoach.com

Basically I offer a better product at a better price than all the big competitors. This can be spun off into a lot more things (already working on them). Videos, home study courses, etc. Just seeing what everyone here thinks :)

Thanks guys!! Any feedback would be appreciated.

Do you have the product ready? The sticker price is a bit steep for a 3 day course isn't it? Speaking of price, you should list it somewhere other than the pay pal billing information page.

I would just get rid of the tips & tricks link if you have nothing to put there. I got this when I clicked the link:
Page Not Found


Having no link is better than sending someone to a page not found page.

The tips&tricks might be the way to drive people to your site as well. I see nothing on your site that would hook me into paying for your course. No testimonials, no GMAT scores, no course overviews on the landing page. You can pretty much write off anything that is one click in, I just found those testimonials. Fort the first one, I wouldn't use something advertising that you got a guy 69%. In most schools 69% is a failing grade. Something like : I got a 700% increase is much more impressive. 9% to 69% is about 700%.

Yeah I would beef up the landing page, and put your navigation at the bottom as well, some people are expecting the 'next action' at the bottom. Good start! Are you going to be teaching???

Thanks for the replies...

In response to your questions:

-No I am not teaching the course. I have outsourced the teaching to a VERY good tutor. I can offer him more money that he is currently making and I have a muse that I don't have to be present for as eventually everything can be outsourced and 90% automated.
-Product is ready to go
-I added some content to the "tips and tricks" page, and plan to add more to drive people to the site
-the $795 price tag is the cheapest I could go and still have a decent profit margin after expenses. The competition charges anywhere from $1200-$2400 so I feel I can beat them with price AND service as they are more like cattle farmers than GMAT tutors imo.
-I added the price other places as suggested
-I changed the testimonials to say "700% increase"
-I made a course overview and added a page for it


What would be your suggestions for beefing up the landing page?

Thanks again for the replies everyone :)
