"Copywriting is 100% Creative Work."

Wrong.

Copywriting is not like writing a novel.
Not a fluff piece.
Not to appear clever.
Not mesmerising.

Certainly not hypnotising.

Copywriting is ..

80% Research
10% Arrangement
10% Write/ Edit
Spend most time understanding the prospects.

What's the dream?
What's the worry?
What's the hassle?
Where do they hang out?
How do we intensify the desire?
Then understand the product.

What does it ultimately do?
How is it different or better?
What's the unique mechanism?
Why use it and nothing else?
With all the answers,
arrange in a logical sequence.

"First draft is shit"

"Be ruthless in your edit"

✅Simplify and shorten sentences.
✅Get-to-the-point.
✅Use fluid words
✅Active sentence

Kenapa Web Designer Selalu Serabut?
Bagaimana nak atasinya?

Kalau ikut dari first paid gig,
Saya sudah 21 tahun membina website.

15 tahun pertama,
setiap kali dapat job,
saya jem dan serabut.

Then saya tukar...
(thread)
Kita go through masalah-masalah.

1. Tak tahu nak design macam mana.

Setiap kali submit, client reject.
Buruk, tak padan dengan brand.
Dan macam-macam.

Kebiasanya merujuk kepada style.

Solusi: Minta reference website.
2. Tak tahu nak charge berapa.

Kalau tinggi sangat, tak jadi beli.
Kalau rendah sangat, tak berbaloi.

Solusi: Letak paling tinggi kita sanggup.

What I'm going to share is my secret sauce.
So powerful that you think it's stupid.

It's too common sense.
It's too 'duhhhh'.

When you finish reading this,

help me RT this post.

Let it reach as many people as possible.

Standing up drains 1/2 of your energy.

Slowly, tears filled your eyes.
Is this going to be forever?

"NO. No. no."

Is never the word we ever want to use in Copywriting.

Here's why and how to fix it.

1. Fundamental of Copywriting by Joe Sugarman.

"Copywriting must lead them to read the next sentence"... "and the next."

When you use the word 'No',
You indirectly teach them to say no.

When you want them to take action,
'No' would come up naturally.
2. Get "small-yes-es".

Throughout the entire copywriting,
get a small yes.

Even when telling stories,
invite them to be a part of it.

By these two principles,
'No' is the first to go.

Ringkasan Space

Kita ni sebenarnya,
Banyak knowledge,
Banyak teknik,
tapi kurang kefahaman. Image
Perkara wajib dalam business
Apa yg patut utamakan?
1. Jualan - dapat jualan
2. Untung - boleh simpan
3. System - invest in system

Silap ramai peniaga
1. Produk apa nak jual?
2. Apa ayat nak guna?
3. Macam mana nak posting?
4. Kat mana nak buat posting?
Kita sibuk tanya,
"Kenapa orang tak beli"

Tak tanya,
"Kenapa orang KENA beli".

Patah balik ke Ekonomi,
Supply dan Demand.

Orang membeli sebab nak selesaikan nilai iaitu pain dan gain.

Jadi supply nilai yg ada demand.

My Go-To Copywriting Framework.

If AIDA was confusing, then PAS is a lot simpler to understand.

P - Problem
A - Aggravate
S - Solution

Of course like any other copywriting process,
it must start with knowing who the target market is.

1. Problem.

Just state the problem

a. "Looking For: Male, Mid 30s, Losing Hair"

b. "Flabby Tummy After 60 Days Diet Program? It's not you, it's your gut."

c. "Website Not Generating Leads?"

Tip1. Create Your Own Swipe.

See an interesting ad that makes you want to buy?
An ad makes you want to take action?
Creative that looks good?
Thumbstoppers.

Within Facebook, I share it with my private group.

Tag it.

What does it make you feel?
What industry is this?
What emotional trigger do they use?
While I'm in the Website Revamp business, I do save ads from other industries.

- Fashion
- Beauty
- Training

You can easily swap the 'object' and get about the same result.
