Give Your Business Prospect a Name

Give Your Business Prospect a Name

Knowing your targeted business prospect makes writing content and copy much easier. While that’s well known, many copywriters and their clients don’t dig deep enough into their prospects’ overall image. Visualizing the reader makes the finished product even more effective.  A worksheet that I use helps build a 3-D business prospect image. Starting with a blank slate, I fill in the blanks until the reader appears as a living, breathing person. This process takes time, but it’s worth it. Building a 3-D model I’m a big fan of science fiction TV … [Read more...]

An Important Part of Your Marketing Strategy

Promoting the Total Cost of Ownership Buying a product or service involves several steps. In fact, it's more of a process than an action.

Online/Offline Copy Differences

Sell More by Getting It "Write" the First Time ~ Many companies, like yours, have built a profitable business – offline.

The information provided online is the same provided in the brick-and-mortar world. So, why aren’t they as successful online? Why aren't their online marketing strategies working? … [Read more...]

Is Your Home Page a GPS or Laundry List?

Is Your Home Page a GPS or Laundry List?

When you're planning a trip, you will probably use some sort of map to chart your course. You might break out the old paper map or atlas, a rather old school approach. In this digital age, online maps show a clear route from point A to point B, photos included. Of course, built-in or stand-alone Global Positioning Systems make traveling even easier by talking to you, telling you when and where to turn on the fly. The point is that when you need to go somewhere, you must find out how to get there. The easier it is to map a course, the more … [Read more...]

Content or Copy?

Do you need content or copy for your website? At first glance, they appear to be the same thing. They both are made up of words, sentences and paragraphs.They usually have an introduction, body and conclusion. Both inform or educate the reader and lead them to some kind of conclusion or action.

Steve has a special gift for making dry subject matter interesting and easy to consume – and that’s not an easy thing to do. He’s friendly, down to earth and very easy to work with. After five minutes talking with him you’ll feel like you’ve been old friends for years. Don’t hesitate to call him. Great guy.
