4. Focus on
customer. Of course, your article content will come from your own experiences. But instead of saying, "I know this guy who" and "When I designed my website," you can project your story onto
customer. It helps to address
reader and ask questions: "Ever find yourself buried under piles of paperwork?" (You yourself may know this feeling, but your customer doesn't care.) It's all about
reader!
5. Include a call to action. If you word your articles in just
right way, you can really inspire your key customer to take action without making them feel coerced. Tap their wants and needs, offer solutions, and then spur them on to make a change for
better. Of course,
solution is to get in touch with you. Do this subtly in your article, and then do it again with a bit more volume in your conclusion and bio. "Visit Wordfeeder.com today to find out how great copywriting can make a world of difference for your business!" There, see how easy that was?
In general, it helps to visualize
article reaching its final destination. If your article is about cooking, then imagine it on someone else's cooking website. Now imagine
reader, taking in your story. What would they want to read about? How can
visual presentation keep them riveted on your words, so they can make it to
end where your bio and URL link is? How can you get them to click that link?
If you do get wrapped up in
joyous act of article writing, that's a beautiful thing! Just remember to keep your eye on
prize: your business prospects.
