Earnings Disclaimer: You have a .1% probability of hitting million-dollar months according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. As stated by law, we can not and do not make any guarantees about your own ability to get results or earn any money with our ideas, information, programs, or strategies. We don’t know you, and besides, your results in life are up to you. We’re here to help by giving you our greatest strategies to move you forward, faster. However, nothing on this page or any of our websites or emails is a promise or guarantee of future earnings. Any financial numbers referenced here, or on any of our sites or emails, are simply estimates or projections or past results, and should not be considered exact, actual, or as a promise of potential earnings – all numbers are illustrative only.

Low show rates kill paid traffic campaigns. You book appointments, burn ad spend, and watch prospects disappear before they ever reach your sales team. One strategically placed confirmation page video can reverse this pattern.

This tactic forms part of what I call the back-end selling system — a five-component framework consisting of confirmation page best practices, value-dense email sequences, AI manipulation mastery (which I keep behind paid walls inside my 7-week live comprehensive training), setter best practices, and the hammer them strategy. These elements work together to improve show rates, reduce sales cycle timelines, and warm up prospects before they arrive on calls.

Results are not typical. Your results will vary and depend entirely on your individual capacity, business experience, expertise, and level of desire. There are no guarantees concerning the level of success you may experience. The testimonials and examples used are not intended to represent or guarantee that anyone will achieve the same or similar results. We don’t believe in get-rich-quick programs. We believe in hard work, adding value and serving others. As stated by law, we can not and do not make any guarantees about your own ability to get results or earn any money with our information, courses, programs, or strategies.

The back-end selling system serves one primary purpose: condense the trust cycle. Organic content allows you to tolerate six-month consideration periods. Paid advertising doesn’t. You need compressed messaging, stacked insights, and fast conversions so your ad spend returns before the credit card bill arrives.

Why People Ghost Your Calls After They Book Them

Understanding prospect psychology at different funnel stages reveals why show rates drop.

When someone scrolls Facebook or Instagram and encounters your ad, they operate in scanner mode. They conserve energy. They judge content within milliseconds. According to research on digital attention spans, people make snap decisions about whether content deserves attention. The drop-off between ad impressions and three-second video views demonstrates this ruthlessly. Scanner mode exists purely to filter what deserves deeper attention.

Once they book a call or register for a webinar, they shift into justification mode. Now they ask: Is this worth my time? Should I actually show up? Will this deliver value?

Your confirmation page video addresses them in this newly entered justification state. What they encounter immediately after opting in determines whether they show up or ghost you.

The Two Types of Confirmation Videos That Actually Work

Two confirmation page video types consistently produce results: due diligence videos and urgency videos. Your specific situation determines which one to deploy.

  • Deploy a due diligence video if negative content about you exists online. This extends beyond scam accusations to include Reddit threads, Trustpilot reviews from disqualified leads, or AI search overviews pulling incorrect information. If prospects will Google you and find doubt-creating content, you need a due diligence video.

  • Deploy an urgency video if your online reputation remains clean and your primary challenge involves prospects not prioritizing your offer. When leads arrive at calls saying “the timing isn’t right” or “I need to think about it,” an urgency video creates legitimate reasons to act immediately.

What a Due Diligence Video Actually Is and How to Make One

A due diligence video performs the research your leads would otherwise conduct independently. You screen share and walk through what they’d discover if they investigated you.

Start by Googling yourself the way a skeptical prospect would. Search your company name plus “scam.” Search your name plus “reviews.” Query ChatGPT or Claude about whether your company is a scam. Document what appears and address it directly.

The objective is adding frame and context to what people would otherwise find alone. You tell them how to interpret what they see. News stations operate this way—they report events and provide interpretation frameworks. A due diligence video does exactly this.

One operator I worked with faced an issue where Google’s AI search overview pulled podcast reviews as justification that the company was a scam. The reviews came from iTunes, where random people who never purchased the product left negative comments. These weren’t customers. They were skeptics who listened to a podcast and decided to trash the product. Google scraped those reviews and presented them as scam evidence.

Another business owner discovered a Reddit thread appearing when searchers combined their company name with “scam.” The SEO description looked damaging. It read something like “I’m an executive at this business, this is a huge scam.” When you actually clicked into the thread, that sentence existed nowhere. Google combined random words from the thread to create that description. The actual thread praised my client and criticized their competitor.

Most people don’t click through. They see that description and think “where there’s smoke, there’s fire.” They skip the call. When this operator created a due diligence video walking through that exact search and explaining what actually happened, the show rate improved.

How Showing Your Ethics on Video Changes Prospect Perception

Due diligence videos gain power by showcasing what happens when things go wrong. You demonstrate your ethics and problem-handling approach.

Recently, a hacker exploited a GoHighLevel integration and spent money on ads through one of my staff member’s Facebook accounts. It affected two client accounts. Even though it technically wasn’t our fault, I refunded both clients the full amount. That’s the type of incident you highlight in a due diligence video. It demonstrates ethics and crisis response.

Another example: someone signed up for Jeremy AI. Within five hours, he requested a refund. We examined how he attempted to use it and realized he had no idea how to prompt an AI. We immediately refunded his money, let him keep access for the rest of the billing cycle, and taught him proper usage. He resubscribed after we refunded him.

That experience also exposed an onboarding weakness. We created an email sequence teaching new subscribers all the powerful functionality available in Jeremy AI. The point remains: we showcase how we handle refunds and customer issues. That builds trust.

How to Address Negative Press or Reviews Before Prospects Find Them

One client with an alternative wellness product was being slandered by his local government. Every search result was a scathing review from local press. The government wanted him to pay for medical accreditation, but he didn’t want to make medical claims. When he refused, they started distributing press releases attacking him.

His show rate was destroyed until he made a due diligence video. He showcased the actual communications between him and government officials attempting to extort him. He explained tall poppy syndrome in his country. He added context to what people were seeing. His show rate immediately improved because he played offense instead of letting the narrative control him.

If Trustpilot is destroying you, make a video about it. Google “buy Trustpilot reviews” and show people all the services where competitors can pay to blast you with one-star reviews. Introduce doubt to what’s hurting you. Don’t passively accept it.

What Makes an Urgency Video Different from Fake Scarcity

Urgency videos provide legitimate reasons to prioritize your offer. Not fake scarcity. Not “only 3 spots left” manipulation. Real, defensible reasons why acting now beats acting later.

Busy people, especially financially qualified prospects, maintain rotating priority lists demanding their attention. According to behavioral economics research on decision-making, people delay action on tasks lacking immediate consequences. Without creating a genuine reason for them to prioritize your offer, they won’t show up. They’ll deprioritize you and think passively about “maybe doing this later.”

One Inner Circle member was running webinars with 19 breakout videos on the confirmation page. Those videos improved the show rate modestly. Then we added one urgency video. That single video lifted the show rate significantly. The urgency video made people actually care about consuming the other videos.

We created it using AI models like Claude. We described the situation: low show rate despite implementing best practices. We suspected we were missing real reasons for people to act now versus later. We asked the AI to research and identify real-world reasons why someone would prioritize this offer immediately.

How to Find Real Market Reasons That Create Genuine Priority

The offer involved a real estate investment strategy called co-living. Co-living hasn’t traditionally been legal in most U.S. cities due to zoning restrictions. Recently, about 13 major cities including Washington D.C., Miami, Denver, and markets in Texas and California rolled back those restrictions.

That’s a real reason to act. People who move first when a market opens capture the most opportunity. Houses already configured for co-living become available. Co-living provides more net rental income than single-family homes or short-term rentals in most markets according to housing market analysis.

Before the urgency video, co-living was just some passive real estate opportunity. After the video, people thought “you’re telling me that across major first-tier cities, there’s an opportunity that only became legal in the last few months?” That frame created priority. A significant portion of people who hit that page consumed the video with high engagement.

An urgency video must move your offer up on someone’s priority list. If you can’t accomplish that by framing them on real reasons to act, you’ll get people who deprioritize you and never convert.

Where to Place These Videos on Your Confirmation Pages

Placement is straightforward. On a webinar confirmation page, this video goes front and center directly below the headline. On a call funnel, after someone books a call, the confirmation page they land on should feature this video at the top.

This isn’t complicated. You’re either addressing what people will find when they research you, or you’re giving them real reasons to prioritize showing up. One of these two approaches will improve your show rates.

The businesses I’ve worked with that implement these confirmation page videos see immediate lifts. But you must actually execute. You must be willing to address negative content directly or create genuine urgency based on real market conditions.

Most people won’t do this. They’ll continue running ads, getting low show rates, and wondering why their funnel isn’t profitable. Don’t be most people.

I’ve provided the framework here. Inside my paid programs like the 7-week live comprehensive training Master Internet Marketing or my flagship program Inner Circle, I provide the actual video examples, the specific prompts I use for AI to script these, and extensive SOPs on all five back-end selling systems.

Results are not typical. Your results will vary and depend entirely on your individual capacity, business experience, expertise, and level of desire. There are no guarantees concerning the level of success you may experience. The testimonials and examples used are not intended to represent or guarantee that anyone will achieve the same or similar results. We don’t believe in get-rich-quick programs. We believe in hard work, adding value and serving others. As stated by law, we can not and do not make any guarantees about your own ability to get results or earn any money with our information, courses, programs, or strategies.

Jeremy AI can also help you script these videos for your specific business. It’s trained on all my one-on-one calls, weekly group calls, every course in my vault, every SOP, every client consultation, and everything I do gets uploaded daily. It’s always one day behind real me, but it can answer specific questions about your business right now.

Go implement this. Your show rates will improve when you give prospects real context or real reasons to show up.
