    Just remember: Lift notes are powerful little guys. They’re not a whole second sales letter.

    The most successful lift notes hit one selling point – and hit it hard. They’re written on a small piece of paper for good reason. Lack of space forces you to narrow your focus and give your prospect a specific, concrete reason why he should purchase your product or service right now.
