Build your sales page
In this article: How to customize your built-in sales page, write a description that helps students decide to enroll, and find the link to share.
All Plans
Every Ruzuku course comes with a built-in sales page. This is the page students see before they enroll. It shows your course title, your description, and your price points with enrollment buttons. The layout is clean and mobile-friendly out of the box.
You don't need a separate website or landing page tool. Your Ruzuku sales page works on its own, and you can link to it from anywhere: your website, email list, social media, or a direct message to a prospective student.
The most important thing you can do on this page is write a description that speaks to the person you want to help.
Access the sales page editor
- Open your course and go to Manage Course → Sales page.
- You'll see a preview of your sales page with your course title at the top and any price points you've created below.
- Click into the description area to start editing.
The editor works like a standard text editor. You can format text with headings, bold, italic, bullet points, and links. You can also add images directly into the description.
Write your description
Your description is the core of the sales page. It's what helps a prospective student decide whether this course is right for them.
The most effective descriptions focus on what students will get out of the course, not a list of what's inside it.
Lead with outcomes
Tell students what they'll be able to do, know, or feel after completing your course. Be specific.
Instead of:
"This course includes 6 modules covering photography fundamentals, lighting techniques, composition, editing, and portfolio building."
Try:
"By the end of this course, you'll be taking photos you're proud to share. You'll understand how to work with natural light, compose shots that draw people in, and edit with confidence. You'll also have a polished portfolio of 10 images to show clients."
Both describe the same course. The second one helps a student picture the result.
Keep it scannable
Most people skim before they read. Structure your description so the key points stand out:
- Use short paragraphs (2-3 sentences each)
- Bold the most important phrases
- Use bullet points for lists of outcomes or topics
- Add headings to break up a longer description
What to include
A strong sales page description typically covers:
- Who this course is for. Help the right people recognize themselves. "This is for coaches and consultants who want to create their first online course."
- What they'll learn or accomplish. Specific outcomes, not vague promises.
- How it works. Format, time commitment, whether it's self-paced or live. "6 self-paced modules you can complete on your own schedule, plus a weekly live Q&A."
- About you. A sentence or two about why you're the right person to teach this. Keep it brief.
You don't need all four for every course. A short lead magnet course might only need two sentences. A $500 flagship course deserves a fuller description.
How price points appear on the sales page
Your price points show up automatically below your description. Each one displays its name, price, and an Enroll button.
If you have multiple price points, students see all of them and choose the option they prefer. You control the order by adjusting the price points under Manage Course → Price Points.
If you haven't created any price points yet, the sales page won't show enrollment buttons. Set up at least one price point first. See Create and Manage Price Points.
Find and share your sales page link
Your sales page has a unique URL you can share anywhere.
- Go to Manage Course → Sales page.
- Click the Share Link button. The URL is copied to your clipboard automatically.
Paste that link on your website, in emails, on social media, or anywhere you want students to find your course.
You can also get direct links to individual price points under Manage Course → Price Points. A price point link takes students straight to checkout for that specific option, skipping the sales page. This is useful when you want to send someone directly to a particular price, for example linking to a discounted price from an email campaign.
What your students see
When a student visits your sales page:
- They see your course title and description.
- Below the description, they see your price points with enrollment buttons.
- They click Enroll on their chosen price point.
- For a paid price point, they enter their payment information on a checkout page. For a free price point, they enter their name and email and are enrolled immediately.
- After enrolling, they land inside your course and can start right away. Ruzuku also sends a confirmation email with a link back to the course.
The sales page and checkout are mobile-friendly. Students can enroll from their phone, tablet, or computer without any extra setup on your part.
Preview your sales page
To see your sales page exactly as students see it, copy the URL and open it in a private or incognito browser window. This shows you the public view without your creator editing tools.
Check that:
- Your description reads clearly and the formatting looks right
- Your price points display with the correct names and prices
- The page looks good on both desktop and mobile (resize your browser window or check on your phone)
Tips for an effective sales page
Start with the student, not the curriculum. Open your description with the problem your student is trying to solve or the outcome they want. Save the module breakdown for later in the description, if you include it at all.
Be specific about results. "You'll learn marketing" is forgettable. "You'll write and send your first email campaign by the end of Week 2" gives someone a reason to enroll.
Use plain language. Write the way you'd talk to someone at a coffee shop. If a sentence sounds like it belongs in an academic catalog, rewrite it.
Shorter is usually better. A focused 150-word description that speaks directly to your ideal student will outperform a 1,000-word essay that tries to convince everyone. Say what matters. Stop there.
Name your price points clearly. Students see your price point names on the sales page. "Full Course Access — $297" or "3 Monthly Payments of $109" tells them exactly what they're choosing. Avoid vague labels like "Option A."
