What do you need to have in order to create a sales letter that kills? An expert writer uses sales letter to sell and not to tell. Here are a few tips that can help you write a killer sales letter.
$1 KISS! Keep it short and simple. Long copies needs time to read. They can be b-o-r-i-n-g too.
$2. Be creative: There is no rule for copywriting. No classroom where it can be taught. You learn it by twisting your brain cells. By being observant. By seeing things beyond ordinary.
$3: Break Rules! There can be penalties for breaking traffic rules. But a copy written beyond ordinary rules can rule the roost.
$4. Talk sense, not out of your hat: Breaking rules doesn’t mean making your copy complex and incomprehensible. Your copy must make sense. Think out of box but not out of universe.
$5 Cut out the jargon: If your target audience is purely the trade industry people, you can show off your knowledge of buzzwords, albeit only to a limited extent. Plain, simple English is the hands down winner always
$6: Get a gripping headline: Do you remember the headlines of today’s newspaper? OK. Any headline that has grabbed your attention and you thought what follows will be interesting to read. Here is the catch. You read the headline first and then go to the details. Make your headlines interesting. If it’s possible it can be 4-5 word summary, but in a unique way, of the whole letter. Brainstorm before you finally choose one. I won’t be surprised if thinking up a headline takes up most of your time. In this piece, I talked on what a sales letter can do for your business and have provided you with some basic information on effective copywriting.
