Our ad landing pages: what the committee says

The answer

You're on the right track, so keep the approach: matching the top of each page to its ad is right for people coming from Meta, and your lab proof is something no competitor can show.

Two things hold every page back: someone who's never heard of sulforaphane sees a price and a plan picker before learning why they'd want BROQ, and there's no star rating or review count.

Fix those two once, in the part below the headline that all the pages share, and every ad gets the benefit.

Do this

  1. On the BROQ pages, show what it does for you before the price.It gives a newcomer a reason to want BROQ before they see a price.No money, just build time.
    How, and the full reason for item 1

    What: Right under the headline, above the plan picker, add a short block with three parts. First, one plain line on what sulforaphane does in your body. Then the six benefits, each with one real study result (all already on the science page), plus the science page's "when you'll notice it" line for BROQ. Then BROQ's big numbers in one strip: 3,000+ published studies, 25 mg a serving when 11 of the top 20 competitors deliver under 1 mg, and as much as 3.5 pounds of raw broccoli. Keep it short: only what makes people want to buy, as you asked on the blood test page. On a phone, move the line that explains sulforaphane above the pack picture, so it's on the first screen. Start with the two BROQ pages for newcomers (longevity-secret, winter-ready) and the BROQ product page, then do the same on the NMN-99 and SPMD-99 pages. Judge it on sales per visitor over two full weeks.

    Why: It's also how Mitopure makes people feel it's special, and all ten members raised it.

  2. Turn on reviews: BROQ's real star rating and count under the headline.Today a newcomer sees no sign that anyone else has bought.The app's monthly fee (not checked) and setup time.
    How, and the full reason for item 2

    What: Install a reviews app on opus.life, bring in BROQ's real reviews, and show the rating and count right under the headline on every BROQ page and the BROQ product page, with 3 or 4 real review quotes next to Add to cart. Which number goes up is your and Nick's call (question 1).

    Why: 9 of 10 members call it urgent, and the few real tests found about 5% to 15% more sales.

  3. Today, check the three "Verified Customer" pictures on the product pages.The lab tests earn real trust, and one review that turns out not to be real could undo it.Minutes.
    How, and the full reason for item 3

    What: Find where Ian's (BROQ), Alvin's (NMN-99) and Diana's (SPMD-99) review pictures came from. Take down any we can't trace to a real buyer.

    Why: Nothing in our files shows where these three came from, and apart from 4 and 2 ratings on Amazon, our files show no NMN-99 or SPMD-99 reviews yet. You may already know (question 2).

  4. Learn from real people this week, instead of split tests.Asking buyers and watching newcomers gives answers in days, when a split test at our traffic would take many months.No money; an afternoon plus one work session.
    How, and the full reason for item 4

    What: Email past buyers a few open questions (what did you hope it would do, what almost stopped you, how would you describe it to a friend), and copy the exact words from BROQ's TikTok Shop and Amazon reviews into one sheet. Then watch 3 to 5 people who've never heard of sulforaphane see the BROQ ad, then the page, on their phone, saying out loud what they think.

    Why: And buyers' own words become the page's words. Then ship the changes together and judge them over two full weeks.

  5. Try making "Buy 2, get SPMD-99 FREE" the recommended choice on the BROQ pages.A bigger first order makes break-even (1.72 for BROQ) easier to reach, and cash is tight.No money, a small page change.
    How, and the full reason for item 5

    What: Label it as the two-servings-a-day option, mark it "Recommended", and for one week make it the plan that's already selected. Switch back if orders a day drop.

    Why: It also fits what the pages already say: you may need more than one serving a day to reach the doses in the studies. Andrew Faris and Ezra Firestone back it.

The detail

Straight answers to your seven questions

1. Are we approaching this right? Mostly, yes. Nine members scored it 6 out of 10 and one gave 5. On their scale, 6 or 7 is normal for first-pass work. The matched headlines, the real lab proof and the plain guarantee are all right. What holds it back is the same on every page, below the headline: a price and plans come before the reasons to want it, and there are no reviews. On Wednesday (figures from tonight's brief, not yet checked against Shopify), 23 of 386 visitors added to cart, but 12 of the 20 who started checkout bought, so people are lost on the page, not at checkout.

2. Would product pages be better than matching every ad? No, not for people coming from ads (7 of 10 say keep the matched pages). Your ad pages already are product pages with a top matched to the ad, so the gap is small. Where most agree with your instinct: a new opening line doesn't need a whole new page. It can be a new headline on that angle's page, with the time going into the part all pages share (question 4).

3. BROQ, for someone who's never heard of sulforaphane? Not yet. All ten say the benefits come too late. On a phone, a newcomer sees the headline and the pack, then one short line, the price and the plan picker. "What is sulforaphane?" comes about five phone screens down, in a few short lines, and "6 ways BROQ works for you" are one-line labels.

Mitopure feels special because it leads with one big promise, stacks hard proof right under it (18 years of research, 25 human trials, 80 patents, "+39%" in a trial) and tells you when you'll feel it. BROQ already has its own version, scattered down the page: 3,000+ studies, a dose the competitors don't come close to, 3.5 pounds of broccoli in a serving, a seed partner working on this since the early 1990s, and real human results on the science page (lower A1C, less flu virus, LDL down 5 to 7%). Pull them to the top (item 1 under Do this). Five members also want you on the pages: your story, your face or your own blood results (question 5).

4. How urgent are reviews, stars and a count? Very. 9 of 10 call it urgent, and five put it at or near the top of the list. Peep Laja would still do the benefit words first, since they move people more; Rishi Rawat calls reviews table stakes and wants just 3 or 4 real snippets by the button. Both agree reviews belong on the page now. The material is real: BROQ has 4.5 stars from 340 on TikTok Shop, 4.1 from 557 on Amazon, and 4.85 from 1,211 on our own store, which you haven't cleared for the site.

5. Can we show one rating for all our products at the top? Yes, it's common: Timeline's home page shows "4.5 from 5921 reviews". All five members with a view said yes, if it says plainly that it covers all our products. Baymard adds: let a tap lead to the real reviews. Almost all our reviews are BROQ's, so on the NMN-99 and SPMD-99 pages it has to read as store-wide, not as theirs (question 3).

6. Should we add more from the science page? Yes, but more on each benefit, not more benefits. The six are plenty. What's worth bringing over is each benefit's real study result, plus BROQ's "when you'll notice it" line, placed above the plans. On each ad page, lead with the benefit that ad promised, like immunity on winter-ready. Kurt Elster alone would just move the six up and link to the science page.

7. Is there a better overall approach? Mostly no: keep this approach, but run it differently:

  • Every page tells a newcomer why to want it before asking for money: the promise, how it works in plain words, why ours (the lab test), real reviews, then the offer. The best page so far, the holy grail one, opens with a story (the village in Italy), not a product claim.
  • Real reviews on every page.
  • Fewer new pages: new opening lines get a new headline on their angle's page, and the hours go into the shared part and into new ads.
  • Learn from people, not split tests: ask buyers, watch newcomers use the page, ship changes together and judge them over two weeks.

That's 20 live ads on 19 pages, and none go to the product pages. Tonight's new ads are built paused (or still being built), set to go on after midnight if they pass their checks.

Who sat, and why
  • Baymard Institute: the biggest body of online-store usability research; what makes shoppers stall.
  • Rishi Rawat: product page specialist; the product page should carry the whole pitch.
  • Peep Laja: conversion research; clear value words, research before testing.
  • Nik Sharma: pages for paid social traffic; "the PDP [product page] is a classroom, not a checkout".
  • Ezra Firestone: creator of BOOM! by Cindy Joseph; long sales pages, offers and order size.
  • Andrew Faris: store operator; judges by the money that comes in, tests offers and destinations.
  • Kurt Elster: Shopify store expert; standard store setup, reviews, small stores.
  • Joanna Wiebe: copywriter; pages written from customers' own words.
  • Dara Denney: paid social ads; the ad and the page as one experience.
  • Ash Melwani: co-founder of Obvi, a supplement brand; pages matched to the buyer, social proof.
Where they disagreed
  • Reviews first, or words first? Baymard, Nik Sharma, Kurt Elster and Ash Melwani say reviews are the most urgent thing. Peep Laja says a reason to want it moves people far more than removing doubts, so the benefit words come first. Both are cheap, so do both this week.
  • Product pages or matched pages? Rishi Rawat: one strong page per product, with only the opening changed per ad. Andrew Faris: don't decide it by opinion, test it once on the holy grail ad. Seven others: keep matched pages for ad traffic.
  • Price on the first screen? Ash Melwani would move the whole plan picker below the explaining; Nik Sharma, Peep Laja, Joanna Wiebe and Baymard would put a benefit block above it but keep the buy box on the page. Nik also wants stars and a quote strip on the first screen. Tonight's sticky "See the offer" button keeps the price a tap away either way.
  • How many reviews? Joanna Wiebe and Rishi Rawat: three or four well-chosen real ones beat a wall of them. Baymard: show them all, with the star bars and the critical ones and our replies, so doubters don't leave to check elsewhere.
What each member said
  • Baymard Institute, 6/10. Reviews are the biggest gap. Top action: show the average and count under the headline, linked to the full reviews.
  • Rishi Rawat, 6/10. The ad match is good, but the argument under it is thin. Top action: 3 or 4 real review quotes right under Add to cart, then a "why we exist" block.
  • Peep Laja, 6/10. The lab proof sets us apart, but the page never makes people want sulforaphane first. Top action: survey past buyers, and move "What is sulforaphane?" and the dose story above the plans.
  • Nik Sharma, 6/10. Routing is right; the page should teach. Top action: stars and count by the headline on every page. He'd also add a 4-month prepaid plan.
  • Ezra Firestone, 6/10. We sell the dose; we should sell the promise. Top action: a benefit-and-story section under the headline, with the lab chart below it.
  • Andrew Faris, 6/10. Offer and measurement matter more than matching hooks. Top action: track all new-customer sales against all ad spend, every day.
  • Kurt Elster, 6/10. Good pages, too many of them, no reviews. Top action: install a reviews app and show BROQ's stars and count.
  • Joanna Wiebe, 6/10. Customers' own words should write the page. Top action: copy buyers' exact phrases from the reviews into one sheet and rewrite from them.
  • Dara Denney, 6/10. The ads are you on camera, and the pages show only packs. Top action: put a still of you from each video on the page it drives to.
  • Ash Melwani, 5/10. Matching is right, but there's no teaching and no social proof. Top action: turn on reviews, then teach before the price.
The numbers behind this
  • Ads: 20 live Meta ads on 19 pages. Spend per page since 2 October runs from $0.95 to $434.44.
  • Best ad: the holy grail video, $434.44 spent, 9 orders, $703.97 in counted new-customer sales. That's 1.62, against SPMD-99's break-even of 1.71.
  • Wednesday 14 October: 386 visits, 23 cart adds, 20 checkouts, 12 orders (figures from tonight's brief; not yet checked against Shopify).
  • BROQ reviews: 4.1 stars from 557 on Amazon; 4.5 from 340 on TikTok Shop; 4.85 from 1,211 on our own store (not cleared). "1,263 Verified 5-star reviews for BROQ" is live on go.opus.life/offer. NMN-99 and SPMD-99: 4 and 2 ratings on Amazon.
  • 13 of 15 supplement pages measured show a rating and count near the title.
  • The few real tests of reviews: about +15% (rating next to the headline, one clothing brand) and +5.18% (real reviews featured, one supplement brand).
  • At 100 visits a day and 2 sales per 100 visits, a split test needs about 385 days to spot a 20% lift.
  • BROQ: 25 mg a serving; the studies used 30 to 70 mg a day; 11 of the top 20 competitors deliver under 1 mg; 3,000+ published studies; as much as 3.5 pounds of raw broccoli. Break-even 1.72.
  • Mitopure: "4.5 from 5921 reviews" and "95% recommend" under the headline; 18 years of research, 25 human trials, 500+ studies, 80 patents; "+39% after 16 weeks over placebo".
Anything else they agreed matters
  • Rename the "Get started" button to say what happens, like "Choose my plan" (Baymard, Joanna Wiebe).
  • Fewer look-alike choices in the buy box: one solid button and fewer plan cards (Baymard, Nik Sharma).
  • Make the offers match: the BROQ product page has no "Buy 2, get SPMD-99 FREE", and the top of the BROQ lab-comparison page leaves out the buy-2 line its image ad promises; it's only in the buy box further down (Andrew Faris, Kurt Elster).
  • Bring the BROQ product page's five-picture gallery, with the capsule-in-hand shot, to the ad pages (Baymard, Ezra Firestone).
  • Judge pages on sales per visitor, counting every new-customer sale, not only ad-tagged ones (Andrew Faris, Kurt Elster; the Meta committee says the same).
Tonight's changes to the ad pages, seen at 11:55pm

The committee judged the 3pm pages. After tonight's publish:

  • The two new ad pages are live: "Your supplements may not contain what's on the label" (video 6's page) and "See the results in a blood test, or pay $0" (the blood-test ad's page).
  • A bar now stays at the bottom of the ad pages with the price and "See the offer" (for example "BROQ, $64.60 a month"; on the stack page it reads "Add to cart $145.55/mo"), and "See the offer" sits in the header too.
  • The small print "Annual subscriptions are fully refundable for 30 days after your first delivery." now sits under the 180-day guarantee lines.
  • Our reading, not the committee's: the bar shows the price from the first screen, so item 1 (show what BROQ does before the price) matters at least as much as before.
