Posted by Need more subscribers? Some clicks? Maybe even a few sales? You’ll find your solution in the form of copywriting.
Copywriting is defined as the act of writing text (i.e., copy) for use in marketing materials such as blogs, brochures, newsletters, and social media content. In simpler terms, it’s writing words that sell something, whether it be a brand, a product, a service, an idea, and/or a message. Good copywriting—say, Nike’s “Just Do It” slogan or Maybelline’s “Maybe she’s born with it” shtick—takes that one step further by building brand recognition and leaving consumers with a favorable impression of said brand.
Unsurprisingly, the value of a skilled copywriter has increased as the world has gone digital. Today’s copywriters have to deftly interweave the right keywords and other SEO elements into content as naturally as possible to please both human audiences and computer algorithms. It really is an art form, but one worth the effort to master — especially if you’re armed with an education from Modern Copywriting: Writing Copy That Sells In 2019.
