5 Words and phrases to make your copy more persuasive.

😌 ”Imagine...” – People can’t help but imagine what you’re asking them to imagine! (😈MIND CONTROL😈)

🤔 “Even if…” – Great for clearing up objections.

👩‍🦰 “Your name” – An obvious but important one.

👷‍♂️ “You", "your", "you’re” – Just like using someone’s name, this makes your copy feel like someone's speaking to YOU. Find some (good) marketing copy and delete “you", "your", and "you’re” from it. The difference is huge.

🥫“Brand name” – You could say energy drink but why not just say Red Bull? It makes people picture a can of Red Bull – a hideous toxic-swamp-flavored Red Bull. Naming brands makes your writing more specific and relatable. Both make your copy more persuasive.

What about you, are there any words that you love to use?

“Create a customer avatar and write to them.”

It’s one of the first bits of marketing advice we learn but it can take a while to sink in.

Let’s say you’re writing copy for a trendy recruitment tool and you’ve created a customer avatar, “Sales Manager Sam”.

Your research tells you they tend to enjoy sports, health, fitness, and city life.

They’re fiercely competitive and extroverted.

And they have a fun and chatty voice, easy to get along with – they have “the gift of the gab”.

With all of this in mind, you open up your laptop and write DIRGE copy like this…

❌ “About us”  ❌ “Delivering recruitment solutions…” ❌ “Our methodology inspires…”

But is that how they’d like to be spoken to? Would they say things like that?

Not really.

So, if you’re having a hard time writing for a fake customer avatar – picture a friend, someone you know, or a fictional character that’s a close match to your customer avatar.

Picture them and write your copy again.

✅ ”We were sick of clunky CRMs making a mess of our sales pipeline so we built… ” ✅ “Smash your KPIs with…” ✅ “Create a buzzing atmosphere…”

Better.

Shorter syllables, more action-focused, more energy.
