Although their products are excellent, thousands of small business owners are not making any money on the Internet. The reason for this is they are not convincing their visitors to buy. Copywriting is the one thing that is often overlooked when creating a business plan.
Many small business owners say they will do their own copy to save money without knowing the copywriting secrets and the result is they have a good product, good website and are finally getting traffic but no one is buying.
Hi, my name is Cynthia and I have spent the last 4 years writing copy for websites. I have found that by sticking with the basic principles of selling my copy has been very successful. I would like to share with you some of the techniques that have consistently worked for me.
The first thing to understand before you write anything is that what you write should adhere to the same principles that a real salesperson uses when they are face to face with a prospective client. The majority of salespeople are taught a proven sales pitch that works, and are told to use it every time. Writing copy is no different.
Here are 3 copywriting secrets that will increase your sales every time.
• Identify your chosen market, the more accurately you identify your target market the more you will be able to have empathy with them. They will feel that you understand them. This is very important. Your copy should be written in a style that relates to your target market. Writing to Women over 40 needs a very different style of writing than if your target market was the under 20 Males.
• Create a headline that is going to attract your market. You are not trying to attract every one. Use a headline that will identify your market. If you are trying to attract dog owners of a particular breed include the breed in the headline. Do not just say “Dog Owners….” Use “Doberman Owners….” You will get a far better response. Then include a benefit in the headline.
• Do not go into a long story about the features of your product. Most readers want to know only what it does for them. If they have a problem will your product solve it? Clearly present your benefits. Using bullet points will make it easier for your visitor to read
If you get this part of your copy right you can then expect more buyers.
