ScoreApp — "$300,000 in sales in 3 days" waitlist video ad

How ScoreApp sells its free plan

Since late August, ScoreApp has been running a second set of ads alongside its masterclass, and these sell the software directly. Each ad is about one job: building a waitlist, generating leads, replacing a landing page with a scorecard, or building a page with AI. Each one has a landing page of its own, and every page ends at the same free sign-up with no card.

The pages are one template. The headline changes with the job and the rest stays the same: the rating, the “5M+ leads generated” figure, a video, three steps, a comparison table and an FAQ. Writing a new ad and a new headline is cheap, so the job is what gets tested.

Two extras do the persuading. The scorecard-marketing page sends a free copy of Daniel Priestley’s book to anyone who opens a free account, so the book from his other business becomes a sign-up bonus. And every page, including pricing, offers a seven-question quiz to anyone who isn’t ready. The quiz is built in ScoreApp, so a visitor who hesitates is shown the product working instead of being shown another form.

What happens after sign-up, and the quiz past its first question, is not captured yet. Both are behind a captcha that needs a person to get through.

A quiz answers "which plan?"

Visitors who aren't ready to sign up, and anyone stuck on the pricing page, are sent to a seven-question diagnostic built in ScoreApp. It recommends a plan, and shows the product working while it does.

Opening a free account is what sends the book: "Create your free account and we'll send you a copy". How it is sent, and what a new account opens on, was not captured.

On a computer this funnel opens as a canvas: every page at full length, side by side, with the arrows between them and the moves that make it work. A phone screen can't hold it, so here it's a list.
