It's knowing what to say.
Too many websites just rehash the client's existing sales pitch.
There's no deeper thought about who they're speaking to or what matters to them.
It's a pity.
I mean, sure, sometimes a stronger way to say the same thing is exactly what you need. But this should never be where the work starts.
Copywriting should start with a study of the audience, their desire and frustrations, the benefits they seek, the pain they want to avoid, and the language they use to describe it.
This is where you find the words to persuade and sell.
I don't do print. I'm a web geek.
Selling from a website has quirks all its own - things like search result snippets that get noticed, or how to write for different traffic sources.
I know this stuff backwards. I've been neck deep in it since 2007.
It's like this: between all the website developments, content marketing and SEO campaigns I've worked on - as a freelancer, agency copywriter, and running my own businesses - I've written over a million words of web content.
That's not to confuse quantity with quality. I'm just letting you know I've done this before.
You don't sell financial planning like pizzas.
Often, you want amusing, lively, fun language. Other times, this is wildly inappropriate.
I make a point of varying the tone and register to best fit the client and audience.
Because this is not about me, it's about you and your customers.
I've been a science tragic since forever. I took maths at uni, and before I went full time with internet marketing, I was a computer programmer.
Whether you're selling software, devices, or a service, I can understand your technology offering far faster than the average scribe.
Crucially, I can also explain in plain English how your work benefits your customers.
Great copy is striking enough to notice.
It's sharp enough to take seriously.
It's never a chore to read.
Your customers will feel the difference.
