This goes for the concept of selling "secrets" too. "Secrets" have been sold forever & it's because it's the most desirable type of information to have - information that few others know. Notice how each of the examples below are a bit different. It's clear that they tested different layouts & copy. However, they all have a similar structure & core concept. A few notable selling points beyond the lure of the exclusivity are the ability to win over your friends & look cool in front of others as well as the potential to make good money doing something enjoyable
