Copywriters help create billboards, brochures, catalogs, jingle lyrics, magazine and newspaper advertisements, sales letters and other direct mail, scripts for television or radio commercials, taglines, white papers, social media posts, and other marketing communications.

Copywriting is the act or occupation of writing the text for the purpose of advertising or other forms of marketing. The product, called copy or sales copy, is written content that aims to increase brand awareness and ultimately persuade a person or group to take a particular action.

First of all, you have to gain knowledge about CopywRiting!! What exactly is copywriting?

Copywriting is the art and science of writing copy (words used on web pages, ads, promotional materials, etc.) that sells your product or service and convinces prospective customers to take action. In many ways, it’s like hiring one salesman to reach all of your customers. A sales team contacts, customers one at a time; a copywriter reaches all of them at once through billboards, magazine ads, sales letters, blog posts, and more.

If you can leverage your writing to tell a compelling story while convincing customers of the need for your product, there is no limit to the growth your business can experience. However, if you are stuck writing generic emails, ads, and sales letters, you can expect to spend the rest of your entrepreneurial career struggling to make a single sale.

  Becoming world-class is completely achievable and can be done faster than you think. 

  The first step in any copywriting project is fully understanding whatever product you’re selling. Create Your Product Description :

                                                       This is step one for any copywriting project. The good news is that as a blog owner, you already know your product inside and out. You know the features, understand how it works, and are familiar with the benefits it provides your customers. This offers a great starting point for writing copy.

  Instead of needing to do in-depth research, you can begin by writing down what you already know. You won’t need to spend hours researching the product and taking notes.

 By writing down a complete product description along with a list of the features and benefits, you’ll save this important information.

Before you start writing a copy, write down a description of your product or service. After finishing, you’ll know every detail of what you’re selling and have a better idea about how to sell it. Know every detail of what you’re selling and have a better idea about how to sell it.

  How would you describe the product?

                                                                Provide a simple, two to three-sentence description of the product. It doesn’t need to be super long or detailed and don’t worry about providing a fancy answer. Simply write down a short description as if you were describing the product to a customer. 

  What is special about your product? 

                                                              Something unique or special about the product. What does this product offer that others don’t? Is it made in------? Is it easy to Use/install? It provides analytics that other sites don’t offer? ETC 

   Which benefits it provide? 

                                              A company may talk about how they offer web analytics software, but don’t tell customers about the benefit of using the service. Instead, they should tell customers that the software helps them build a more profitable site, generate more revenue per customer, or accomplish something else along these lines. The focus should be on providing a benefit, not just describing the service. Features included and what are the benefits of each? Write down each of the product’s features.

 Some products have a lot of features, others have less. Either way, list all of your product features here with a short description of each. In addition to listing the features, be sure to list the benefit of each.    Pain does it Alleviate: People generally buy for one of two reasons — to increase their pleasure or to minimize the pain. 

 We identified the benefit that would “increase the pleasure;” in this question, we’ll identify which pain is minimized by using the product. For example, a car insurance company could use a headline like this: “Are You Paying Too Much for Your Car Insurance?”

   The ad would then go on to talk about how most customers pay more than they need for car insurance, and how company X can save them more money (which is something similar to what GEICO currently does). 

 The purpose of the ad is first to focus on the pain, and then to talk about how Company X alleviates that pain. Another option is to focus the ad on the pleasure customers experience from saving money. It could use a headline like this: “How Will You Spend the Money You Save Using [Specific Car Insurance Company Name Here]?” Instead of focusing on the pain, it draws attention to the pleasure experienced by switching to a different insurer (which is what GEICO did in 2008 with their “the money you could be saving” ads). Often, focusing on the pain eliminated is more effective than focusing on the pleasure provided, but both approaches can be tested to evaluate their effectiveness.      Understand Your Customers: 

                                                   The most important step in any copywriting project is knowing who you’re selling to. What they want to buy, and what will convince them to make a purchase. It’s all about the customer, not your company. If you’re selling to high-net-worth business executives, If you’re selling to stay-at-home moms, you’re going to write differently. Why is this so important?” It’s important because each group of customers has different hopes, fears, dreams, and expectations. These differences influence the way you write and how you sell the product. It also means you really need to know what appeals to your customers. So as you can see, defining your customer is a critical part of the copywriting process. Understanding your audience and their fears, wants, and needs are the first step to writing great copy. First, put yourself in their shoes. This should be relatively easy if you are selling a product that solves a problem you once had. However, if you are selling a product or service you would not use yourself (a common problem among freelance copywriters), you need to gain more knowledge about the issue.

  Do Customer Research:

                                         Who currently buys your product? Who your current customers are? Who would you like to buy your product? Identifies who you would like to be selling to. What does a typical customer look like? The goal of this question is to create a detailed picture of your typical customers. The other questions create an overview in broad brushstrokes, but this question zooms in on individual customers. We’re zeroing in on a handful of real customers in order to find out what’s important to them. What do customers love about your product? In addition to needing to know who your customers are, you also need to know what delights them about your product. Why did they buy in the first place, and why do they keep coming back? '

   Write attention-grabbing headlines: 

                                                           Headlines can make or break your copy. It doesn’t matter whether you are writing for ads, a website redesign, Facebook posts, or landing pages. Headlines convince readers to click on your article and give your copy a fighting chance. How do you write attention-grabbing headlines? There are 3 keys to attention-grabbing headlines. Your headlines should be unique Your headlines should be extremely specific Your headline should convey a sense of urgency 

     Write persuasive copy: 

                                       Copywriting, when compared to other forms of writing, is a different kind of animal. It’s not necessarily about writing well. It’s about writing persuasively. Start with a killer value proposition Don’t make them guess what you’re offering. 

   Let them know in a split second what you are offering with your crystal clear value proposition. To accomplish this, try to condense the essence of your product down to just a few words. Swiftly move to the benefits “What’s in it for me?” That’s what most visitors are thinking after hearing your value proposition. But here’s the thing. Most people have a tendency to emphasize features over benefits.

 But it should be the other way around.

  Notice that benefits are valued over features. If you go the other way around and cover the features before the benefits, you’re probably going to lose a sizable portion of your leads. 

Now explain the features:

                                 “What’s in the box?” let them know what’s in the box. They already know what you’re offering and what the benefits are. Now it’s time to succinctly break down the features of your product. prefer breaking features down into bullet points or concise little sections like Moz does. “Digestibility” is huge, and you want to present your product’s features in an easy-to-absorb, intuitive way. 

    A strong call to action: 

                                        Your prospects should understand what your product is, how it will benefit them, and what the features are. Your final task is to tell them what to do next. In other words, it’s time for your CTA(Call to Action). It’s arguably the most challenging aspect of the process, but if you’ve done what you were supposed to do in the previous steps, you should see a reasonable conversion rate.   Once again, simplicity reigns supreme, and I see no reason to complicate your CTA. Some specific elements to test include: button style button color wording positioning Be hella persuasive Okay, now we’ve covered the basic structure of well-crafted copywriting

. The general structure of a landing page should be rough as follows: 

                                                                                                Value proposition Benefits Features CTA But how do you ensure you’re hitting all the right notes and being highly persuasive? Obviously, the value proposition and benefits will offer some motivation, but here are some other things I’ve found to be impactful. Make your content scannable I’m not going to launch into a huge sermon about the importance of creating scannable content. You probably already know people read online content differently than they do offline content. But if you want to efficiently get prospects from Point A (your value proposition) to Point B (your CTA), it helps to make everything in-between easily scannable. 

 Use persuasive words An article on Business 2 Community talks about the three different brains we have: the new brain the middle brain the old brain.

 In this way, the words you use to market to the old brain will often be the most direct, simple, arresting, visual words you have. So if there was ever a copywriting hack, it’s using highly persuasive words that make the “old part of the brain light up.” 

  And according to research, the five most persuasive words in the English language are the ones in blue, which are: New You Free Because Instantly

  Social proof: 

                    Incorporating social proof into your copy is the icing on the cake. You can also use things like: ratings media logos subscriber counts social connections (your number of followers) clients you’ve worked with.
