To increase follow-through, a bookmark worth keeping was included to remind students of the main idea. In the letter, a Johnson box summarized the message, and a headline communicated the money savings. Two subheads aimed to lower resistance. Firstly, by highlighting the benefit of protecting the environment while saving money. Secondly by highlighting the lack of hassle, good repurchase prices, and free shipping. Copy in each section was written in a fun, friendly, straightforward, and helpful tone appropriate for undergraduate and graduate students, and a final funny postscript was added to make students realize that they would probably never consult their textbooks again anyway. All in all, even if the student just skimmed the headlines and subheads, they would get the gist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-container uagb-block-1983e62e\">\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-buttons uagb-buttons__outer-wrap uagb-btn__default-btn uagb-btn-tablet__default-btn uagb-btn-mobile__default-btn uagb-block-39b32ae6\"><div class=\"uagb-buttons__wrap uagb-buttons-layout-wrap\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-buttons-child uagb-buttons__outer-wrap uagb-block-086f92cc wp-block-button\"><div class=\"uagb-button__wrapper\"><a class=\"uagb-buttons-repeater wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/brentcopy.com\/index.php\/contact\/\" onclick=\"return true;\" rel=\"follow noopener\" target=\"_self\"><div class=\"uagb-button__link\">Let&#8217;s Find YOUR Solution<\/div><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-column uagb-column__wrap uagb-column__background-undefined uagb-block-0329de0b\"><div class=\"uagb-column__overlay\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image uagb-block-8f955d38 wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-none\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/brentcopy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ziffit-sales-letter-mock-up.jpg\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brentcopy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ziffit-sales-letter-mock-up-748x1024.jpg ,https:\/\/brentcopy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ziffit-sales-letter-mock-up.jpg 780w, https:\/\/brentcopy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ziffit-sales-letter-mock-up.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 150px\" src=\"https:\/\/brentcopy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Ziffit-sales-letter-mock-up-748x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Ziffit.com textbook buyback sales letter -
