Copywriting tips to boost your reader

December 1st, 2009 | 3 Comments | Posted in business stuff, information, thoughts and ideas

Copywriting tips to boost your readerBasically, copywriting is the use of words to promote a person, business, opinion or idea. Although the word copy may be applied to any content intended for printing the term copywriter is generally limited to such promotional situations, regardless of media as advertisements for print, television, radio or other media. Here are some tips in copywriting:

  • Be Emotionally Compelling – your words must have power so people take action and buy. Don’t be dry, stuffy or boring. Rock their world. What you think is a little “over the top” is probably just right. Show them empathy, caring and concerns that make them feel connected and help them quickly suspend their rational disbelief.
  • Learn to Write Great Headlines – this valuable skill is not to be taken lightly. You need to use numerous headlines in a sales letter. They need to grab your customer’s attention. Look at advertising headline in major magazines. Experts say a good headline can result in 8-10 times more sales than a so-so headline.
  • Use Magic Words not Tragic Words – use words like “amazing, discover, breakthrough, free, happy, money, you, yes, incredible and others. Magic words positively pre-dispose people to your message. Don’t overuse but don’t underestimate how far a little hype can go. Also, use vocabulary at an eighth grade level or less.
  • Ask Questions – questions draw readers in and make them get involved. The smart money is on asking only questions you know will get a “yes” answer. Get potential customers in the habit of saying “yes” so when you ask them to buy they are positively prone to say “yes” again. Read the rest of this entry »

good news for coin collectors

A Fistful of MoneyI have been hearing and reading a lot of articles about coins as an investment because of its financial value that increases over time. However, I find it more appropriate to consider coins as collection rather than investment. Of course that is my point of view, others might view it the other way.

Getting the supposedly rare silver coin and gold coin is no longer difficult today. Anyone can now access a complete list of the coins for acquisition at any given time with the help of the internet. A coin dealer or a collector can just log in the web and search for the item that leads to several sites like Monaco Rare Coin that offers these coins. Still ordering the coins is much convenient if the interested parties call the company. From that they will be able to send write-ups, photos and many more, more importantly their inventory.

Collectors and coin dealers already enjoyed the announcement of the US Mint for the America the Beautiful series new program. Tons of fanfare about the list of national parks and sites the new quarters will feature, it was easy to miss the Mint’s same-day introduction of the America the Beautiful Silver Bullion Coins. These new coins feature up to five new designs each year beginning Read the rest of this entry »
