Probably most people think they’re good enough to do copywriting, and it looks pretty easy at first glance. After all, you’ve read plenty of sales pages. It’s just trying to sell some product or service, and anyone can talk about that stuff, right? But any amount of time in IM will reveal the importance of good copy, plus the realization that it’s not all that easy to write.

What so many internet marketers do is just hire a copywriter to take care of it. Also, a lot of people aren’t good writers, plus they don’t like doing it. But it is a great idea to learn something about copywriting so you’ll understand marketing better.

What could someone say about a product that would make you want to buy it? When you buy something, you know what makes you want to buy it. Write your copy as if you were trying to sell the product to yourself. Avoid using any sales tactics that you would find irritating if they were used on you. Instead, emulate sales copy that you find pleasing or that makes you want to find out more about the product (or buy it on the spot). No matter what you are selling, remember that you are also a consumer for much of the time as well. One way to tell if your copy needs improvement is if it would not even convince you to buy your product! Try to come up with a phrase or way of looking at the product that would be the tipping point that would turn you into a customer. It is solid logic that if you can sell to yourself you should be able to sell to others. Effective writing can create a sense of real urgency, but you should never try to exhibit pressure to make the sale. If you push your products too urgently they will feel pressured and click away from your site. Think about the experience you have in a store. If a clerk follows you around saying “buy this buy this buy this” you will eventually leave the store (probably without buying anything at all). But if a sales person casually describes all the great benefits and answers all your questions, and then maybe leaves you alone, then you probably bought the product.

Your prospective customers have to understand how they will be helped by your product. Make a comprehensive list of all the benefits! You, of course, are well versed in your product’s features. You can probably recite every quality it has. You have to keep in ming that the people you are telling about your product will not be nearly so familiar with it.

It is best for you to act on the assumption that you have to explain everything about the product to these people. When describing the details that make the product so good, don’t leave anything out, even if it seems too obvious. It’s better to include too much information than not enough when it comes to explaining your product to prospects. There are very real aspects about copywriting that seem like art. When you watch marketing videos, sales videos. they have scripts in them. Copywriting is how that script is created. Copywriters write all the TV commercials you see and the radio ads you hear.

Sure, if your budget permits, you can hire copywriters to take care of all your needs. That’s fine to do, but you may want to understand the process and why things are being done the way they are.
