Portfolio Piece: Video Sales Letter for Supplement Brand
Project Overview:
This Video Sales Letter (VSL) script was created for a wellness supplement brand (anonymous for confidentiality), showcasing the brand’s advanced liposomal technology and healthy ingredients such as avocado oil. The goal of this VSL is to effectively communicate the unique benefits of the product in a way that resonates with a health-conscious audience seeking convenience and superior bioavailability in their supplements.
My Approach:
For this project, I focused on crafting a story-driven narrative that would draw in viewers right from the start.
The script is designed to:
- Identify pain points (e.g., discomfort with traditional pills and supplements)
- Present the product as a solution (highlighting the unique, easy-to-take gel pouch format)
- Provide clear, concise product benefits and scientific backing (such as liposomal technology and avocado oil for better absorption)
- Showcase real results through customer testimonials and emphasize the long-term benefits of using the product.
- The script is structured to ensure engagement and conversion, with a clear call to action that encourages viewers to take the next step in their wellness journey.
