But if you learn these 8 copywriting formulas, I guarantee you won't:
1. A-I-U
It stands for:
• Attention: Capture attention

• Urgency: Create urgency for action
This works great for written content like threads & articles:
2. A-I-D-A
It stands for:
• Attention: Headline
• Interest: Add more context
• Desire: What they want to achieve
• Action: Action required for the outcome
I love this with content (but also landing pages):
3. P-A-S
It stands for:
• Problem: Issue plaguing the reader

One of the most fundamental formulas to learn:
4. B-A-B
It stands for:

Effective for painting the desired "transformation:"
5. The P-P-P-P Framework
It stands for:
• Picture: describe the situation
• Promise: what you'll deliver
• Proof: Testimonials, etc.

The ultimate "hero section" value stack:
6. A-I-D-C-A
Stands for:
• Attention: Pull them in
• Information: What it's about
• Desire: The problem worth solving

Think AIDA with added persuasion:
7. F-A-B

Another foundational framework.
(Used by companies like Apple):

➡️ Knowing what to write about (when you have multiple interests)
It causes you to:
• Procrastinate publishing your ideas
• Confuse your audience with multiple topics
And ultimately give up and wear the regret like a 50lb chain.
I wanna show you the exact method I used to:
• Find & double down on my niche
• Figure out what my audience wanted
• Turn my writing into a monetized product
• Come up with hundreds of writing prompts
Here are 34 of the most powerful lessons I've learned over the years:
1. When monetizing online – ask for money before you feel ready 👇
2. Something is a "failure" in attitude only 3. Consistency creates events others call "luck" 4. People want to help – you just have to ask for it 5. Start with ideas, build with work, scale with systems 6. Speaking up for yourself is a competitive advantage
7. Consistency takes you further than raw intelligence 8. Plans often trick you into procrastinating longer 9. Reputation > revenue. Keep to your word 10. Solve a problem. Share the story. Sell the solution 11. When you feel stuck – zoom out. Works every time
