Are these copywriting mistakes costing you sales?

You’ve got a great product or service and people are willing to pay for it. But these common mistakes could be causing you to miss sales!

#1: Focusing on you instead of your prospect.

Customers don’t care about your company. Sure, you want them to care, because affinity for your brand builds customer loyalty. But up front, what they really want to know is, “can you solve my problem?” Want to lose a prospect quickly? Tell them what a great company you are.

#2: Relying on pictures to sell.

Images are important, but by themselves, they don’t sell. You need great images, but you also need copy that answers customers’ questions about what they’re looking at. They want to know how your product or service solves their problem and why your brand is better than your competitors at providing that solution. You only get those answers from clear copywriting.

#3: Writing your own copy.

Anybody can write, right? Sure, most people can string a few words together. But it takes an experienced copywriter to connect with your customers in ways that motivate them to act. That’s my job; To deliver copywriting that captures, informs and, most importantly, compels the reader to take action.

#4. Settling for “Me Too” copy.

Consider this: Every communication from your company is you talking – to your prospects, customers, employees, stakeholders. Busy people. If you don’t capture their attention quickly, they’re gone. If they don’t get clear, quality information, they’re gone. And if they’re gone, they can’t act.

You only get a brief moment to capture your prospect’s attention. Don’t waste it.
