Creating Super Great Persuasive Ad Copy

By Clinton Northington


Not everybody is good at persuading others using only text. On the other hand, however, when you know the rules of successful copywriting, you will know which words to use and when and will be able to effectively present your prospect with something he wants to purchase. So it is about how you take it and what sort of effort you put into building the perfect advertising copy. In this article we are going to talk about three easy to use tips that will help you be more persuasive with your ad copy.

First and foremost, the golden rule of persuasive ad copywriting is that you don't waste your prospects time, nor do you let any opportunity go by to convince him about your product. This is exactly why you should avoid platitudes, which are nothing but empty words that serve no purpose in your copy and make no impact. You want your ad copy to not only stand out in the mind of the reader, but you also want to be persuasive in every way. So focus on what your product actually does and convert that into words, instead of using filler phrases/words that help in no way.

The goal is to create ad copy that stands out to the person who is reading it and for it to be as persuasive as possible. It's important to focus on the things your products actually do and convey those ideas with your words without stooping to using words and filler content that doesn't actually help you. The words that you use in your ad copy matter, which is why they should be written in present tense and spoken word. Someone who's reading your ad shouldn't get the feel that it's you're being indirect with them. Use your copy to talk directly to your sales prospects and stay in the now. Help them feel like they have already bought what you are selling and that it has been a good purchase for them. This will make your copy more relevant and help your prospect feel like they are living the experience before they take the action that you want them to take.

Pretend you're a newspaper and get to the point, letting your copy drag on and on is a mistake. It is important that your message is explained in the shortest methods possible and that's easier done through a great headline that is followed up with your main points. You need to keep your everything to the point so that your prospect doesn't get a feel that the real 'meat' is missing. Trying to infuse suspense into your copy just makes the people reading it lose interest in your message and that means your conversion rate will tank.

When you are a copywriter there are lots of factors that you need to remember so that your end result is very focused and gives you exactly what you want. By including persuasion in your copy you are setting yourself apart from everyone else because not all ad copywriters work this way. You will get much further with your copy if you focus on persuading your prospects because what matters most is getting more sales and that is easier when you can convince your prospect that he is happy to purchase from you and not pushed to buy from you. It is all about getting your prospect to genuinely want to buy from you and not feel skeptical about it.
