Saying What You Mean To Connect With Prospects! Why What You Say is Just as Important as How You Say it.
Do you REALLY think about what you are saying and how you are saying it, particularly in your promotinal copy? Word choice is a vital component of the copy for your marketing, advertising and promotional materials. In fact, your copy can make or break your sales efforts. I always say “copy counts and actually your sales count on your copy.” The best illustration of how important copy really is was shared by my good friend and mentor Lorrie Morgan-Ferrero.

If you’re like other entrepreneurs, you know a good logo is important to branding your company. You may already have a great logo. Now what? How can you create a variety of marketing materials that build your brand? In a word: Coordinate. All your materials should tie to one another graphically. They should convey the same look and feel, or image, and evoke a similar emotional response in your customer. When viewed side by side, your stationery, brochures, and other promotional materials should create a cohesive “family.” Of course, your materials don’t need to “match” each other completely, but some elements should remain consistent from one piece to the next:

These Website Mistakes Are Expensive!
As a professional copywriter and marketing consultant, I continually see two huge mistakes business owners make when creating their marketing materials.
