Day 5 | Technique Lesson 2
F.U.C.C.C.
Fundamental Understanding of Core Concepts in Copywriting
or
K.I.S.S.
Keep It Stupidly Simple


Effective Copy Operates from Solid Foundations.

It doesn't have to be complicated, and you don't have to study for years. You can learn enough in a few minutes to improve anything you write. The more you practice the better you'll be, but you don't have to be J.K. to sell.

This isn't a comprehensive guide, and I can't teach everything in a post, but the stuff you're about to learn will help your copy flow more easily for you and your customers.

Before we start you should know that anything you write should be tailored to your specific audience, and also for the medium where it'll be read. For instance the format of a sales letter won't work very well for most website home pages, so you'll need to modify your style if you want it to look good.

Keep in mind none of these rules are absolutes.


Technique 1: Open with a Question

Why are questions so useful?

Because they draw us in and almost force us to find answers. We MUST know, so we drop a line &
keep reading to finally get closure. Make sure you don't answer the question in the same line or it loses its effect.

For Example:

"Do you ever have trouble hearing what other people say?
If so, then..."


By the way did you notice I did it to you at the beginning of this technique? ;)


Technique 2: Ask More questions

What happens if you ask another question instead of just giving the answer?

It has the same effect and keeps em' reading for more!

For Example:

"Do you ever have trouble hearing what other people say?
Do people sometimes tell you you're freakin' deaf?
If so, then..."


The longer they read, the more chances you have to influence. Be sure not to ask too many questions without offering a solution or you'll piss em' off.


Technique 3: Use Short Sentences

Short sentences move fast. The shorter the better. Eleven words or less is good. More than that and you slow things down. If you want to impact emotion, use short sentences. It speeds up their mind and makes em' want action.

That doesn't mean longer sentences can never be useful, and you'll find there are times when you really want your readers to slow down and grasp what you say. Use long sentences whenever you want to emphasize something, or when you want your prospects to consider a thought or idea more deeply. Use short sentences when you wanna speed em' up again.


Technique 4: Short Paragraphs

This technique is just like the one before it. Keep paragraphs short if you want to keep things moving effortlessly. Long paragraphs take longer to read, and they end up looking like a wall of text. People don't like walls of text.

Instead writer short paragraphs that are 3 lines or less. Sometimes this means increasing font size to fill up more space, or sometimes you have to decrease it or cut out words if you want it to fit.


Technique 5: Less syllables = Easier to Read

Are you aware of the astronomical quantity of citizens who are absolutely, cataclysmically, abominably mediocre when it comes to aptitude for comprehending the transcribed word?

It's pretty crazy, but seriously...

A lot of people suck at reading.

When we use less syllables our words are easier to understand.

My personal experience is that less syllables is usually better, though I've had a few clients who needed more intelligible writing for certain elite audiences. For most product copy, use less syllables and you can't go wrong.


Technique 6: Make Sub-headings Larger than Body Text

Large sub-headings are for people who like to skim instead of reading everything. When writing sub-headings make sure every word counts because it may be all your prospect sees. I can think of a thousand times when I only read the sub-headings and nothing more. But, if the sub-heading doesn't stand out by being larger, then it may not be seen at all.


Technique 7: Choose Where Each Line Ends

Most of us are used to writing sentences that continue the entire length of the page until they finally
return on their own. In copy it's a little different. In copy we still write across the length of the page but
we choose when to hit return so
we can carry our readers to the
next line.

See what I did there? The last examples were just for effect. The first two lines are how it
normally works. Oops, did it again. ;)

"finally..." - Reader asks, "finally what?"
"but..." - Reader asks, "but what?" and they read the next line for the answer.


Technique 8: Read that Shit Out Loud!

OMG... If you're not reading your copy out loud before going live, then it's no wonder you're not
getting the responses you want! When we read our copy out loud we can find subtle differences in the
wording that changes everything.

Sometimes when I write it comes out really wordy, but I don't know it until I read it out loud. Sometimes
I even have to read it about 10 times before it sounds good. When it sounds good out loud it usually
sounds good in our mind.

Any words that seem like they maybe don't necessarily need to be in the sentence, probably don't.


Technique 9: Speak to the Senses

We'll talk more about this one later, but I want to bring it up for those who are writing copy now. All humans think in terms of their senses all the time. That means sight, sound, smell, taste & touch.

If you want to connect with people, and you want them to experience what you have to say, then you have to write words that give them those experiences.

This is especially true for those of you pecking away at your keyboards, watching words fill up the screen while waiting for your Starbucks to cool after nearly spilling it across the floor because the over-enthusiastic Barista was too busy smiling at customers and forgot to add the cardboard cover to your scalding hot brew.

This is sensory-based language. This is also how you show the reader what you want them to see instead of telling them about it.


Technique 10: Use Action Language

This technique is last but it may be the most powerful of all.

Anytime you write copy you should be using the active voice...

Let's rephrase that.

Anytime you write copy use the active voice.

Feel the difference?

For starters, the active voice cuts out most extra words before you ever read out loud. Plus it allows you to direct the reader instead of letting them make their own choices.

"You should." is very different than, "You will."

"I think you should go over there." is very different than, "Go over there."

"I'll think about it." is very different than, "I'll do it."

Action driven language communicates with clarity.

There's a time and a place for passive language, but most of the time write for action.

If you're selling a product or service, then drive action from the start so your reader gets used to being directed, and by the time they reach the end of your copy they're ready to follow your lead...

This list isn't even close to complete. There's tons of techniques that aren't mentioned, and probably a zillion that I don't even know about. Still, these should be enough to give you a working foundation so you can get started and get feedback. Once you have feedback you can adjust as needed.


Day 5 Challenge


1. Solve a problem for someone.
No matter how big or small, and don't ask anything in return.

2. Write 5 headlines for a real product that MAKES THEM STOP!

3. Write 5 influential sentences using the lessons from day 3.

4. Take 1 action you are most afraid of. Just do it.


5. Type a page of copy selling a real product, using a good headline, subheadlines, & the techniques listed in this lesson.


||||||

Okay, Day 5 is done and you're still here!
Great! If you're actually following the

Although it's always easier to improve someone's work than to create original copy.

Just take your time, review your work, look for redundant words or phrases & where one word can replace several
Just think about your

To be a good writer you have to be a good reader.

I read the classics, Shakespeare & all that crap, but that won't help you write copy, so read good copy.

Analyse it, why is it good? What words & phrases stand out.

Vocabulary is important, improve yours, add to your arsenal, use a dictionary when you don't understand the meaning then use that word in phrases & sentences.

Use that word till you own it, make it part of your everyday vocab.

You can't learn copy in a vacuum, you need external references.

Artists copy the masters to perfect their technique, then they paint their own works.

Hope that helps you.

Day 11 Challenges

1. Write a 2 to 3 paragraph short story about a product that explains how it came into existence. How was it born from a need. How did it manifest from a problem.

Product: Small Size Smartphone

You're gross!

That's my coworker yelling at me after I talked to her. I felt the burn of a dozen stares in my back. Yet, I didn't do or say anything wrong.

I quickly walked to my office to hide. The air suddenly felt chill as I avoided my coworkers' eyes.
But my face was burning. I this point I probably glowed in the dark.

The fact is,
She mistook the giant smartphone in my pocket for -- you-know-what.


Don't you hate it that smartphones get bigger every year?
I do to. And not only because I got humiliated at work.

It doesn't fit in my jeans.
It falls from my pockets.
Its so heavy it damages my jackets.

In fact,
It doesn't fit anywhere anymore. What a burden.

Will smartphones come with carry-on bags in 5 years?

Let's be honest here.
Who really needs a giant screen to make calls? Or Listen to music and podcasts?
Truth is, smartphones barely get out of our pockets for these tasks.
Just use earbuds!

Maybe your watching videos or reading while commuting in public transportation. But
you'd be better off bringing a tablet.


That's why I decided to design a small, practical smartphone.
Anything others do, he does too. It's easy to carry, and won't make you look like
you're the workplace's pervert.

2. Write 2 paragraphs of copy
that utilize storytelling & metaphors to speak to both audiences (pain & pleasure).

I'm sorry.

I tried to write for hours but always ended up scrapping everything. My teeth were grinding as
I fought an internal battle. My will acted as a shield. But
the attack was overwhelming. Tired, I gave up.

That's something I could have said before finding this book. I wasn't fighting alone anymore.
Since reading it and using it, I never suffered writing anything. Not only that.

STOP Getting Rejected! Here's A Confidence Booster
One Month To Win Your Crush

How To Eat Healthy & Delicious

5 Simple Tips To Look Better Right Now

Improve Your Finances In One Week

Boost Your Confidence & Never Get Rejected Again! - Now it's two commands in one.

Steal Your Crush's Heart Even If She Has a Boyfriend - The pleasure comes from the idea of a shortcut to winning, rather than the idea of winning through competition. The pain is that she has a boyfriend.

Finally! Healthy Food That Doesn't Taste Like Crap! - It's longer, but it's more engaging and talks in the audience's voice.

5 Tips to Look Better Even If You Look Like Miley Cyrus Now - Longer, but gives the reader a visual. Of course this only works if they think Miley Cyrus is ugly. :D

Fix Money Problems Fast Without Going Bankrupt - Who improves their finances? People have money problems and they need them fixed. They've probably considered filing bankruptcy as a quick fix. The pain is "money problems" the pleasure is "a fast fix without going bankrupt."

Your paragraphs are pretty good. I hope you've started applying to gigs already. You're good enough to get paid for copywriting.

Thanks for the kind words (and confidence boost) Lex !

I will ASAP! I am currently working on a small portfolio to increase my credibility. But I guess there is no harm in applying before it’s done anyway !

5. Write a commercial script. Again, something to get you moving in a new direction. Most commercial scripts are 1 minute or less. That's about 100 words. Try coming up with a unique script that utilizes some of the techniques you've learned for copywriting. Once you write the script, then be sure to add it to your portfolio so clients know they can use you for other services than just sales letters. If you want to grow, then you have to offer something your competition doesn't.

Product: Acme's Pro Cycling Jersey

No Music.
Only the sound of thunder and rain.


Opens with a shot of the sky.
It's dark. Rain is pouring.
The atmosphere is cold.

Camera slides to the ground.

Its a country road in a valley. There is a cyclist struggling.

We get closer to him.

Cyclist: *To himself* Why did I go? I'm freezing. I'm already regretting this.
I must be the only fool cycling in this weather.

Large shot.
We see a second cyclist coming fast behind him.

The second cyclist come to his side.
Close shot of both cyclist, side by side.

Acme's cyclist: *Looks fresh and happy* Is everything alright ?
Cyclist: I'm miserable. I though I was the only fool riding in this weather.
Acme's cyclist: What do you mean?
Cyclist: Well it's cold and raining. How can you do anything in such weather?
Acme's cyclist: *looks surprised but still happy* Oh yes! your right I didn't pay attention.

Close shot of the cyclist.

He is puzzled. He looks lost for a second.
He then look back at the other cyclist.
He isn't here anymore.

He is 50 meters in front of him. A gap is forming fast.

Quick, front facing shot of the cyclist.
He looks crushed.

Fade to white.
A message appear. (line by line, fading in)

Acme's Pro Winter Gear
Forget The Weather.
Focus On Performance.

I didn't have much time today. So I spent it making a proposal on upwork and
improving my profile.
If I find time tonight I'll do the day 14 challenges.
If not I'll do it tomorrow.

It seems my first 2 proposals (ever) weren't very successful.
No answer and both jobs got closed.

Since reading Extreme Ownership I do take full responsibilities for all my actions and failures.
So I guess my propositions weren't good enough.

I'm currently looking into my proposals to see what could be improved.

However, I'm certainly not defeated. I made 2 more proposals today.
I think both are better than my first 2.

I might want to start an execution thread.

Again I'm not sure I'll have the time to do the challenge (again!).

Sorry!

Day 1 Challange:
I helped my neighbor kid to learn English.
And taught him the story of a fox and a crane.
In which the crane taught the fox the lesson: Tit for tat.

The smile on his face after learning the story was contagious.

New E-Book Reveals Secret Methods Proven to Increase Your Personal Potential​

Do you feel like your self-confidence could use a boost?

Are you wanting more from your relationships at home and at work?

Would you like to see your life become one that others could call ‘inspirational’?

If you answered ‘YES’ to at least one of these questions, keep reading.

I’ve been where you are, and I know you’re capable of great things.

If this sounds hard to believe, I get it.

There was a period where I felt like that wasn’t true for me, either.

It wasn’t until I discovered the simple secrets that all great leaders have known on a subconscious level. Of course, I didn’t come by this information by pouring over lots of self-help books. I also didn’t attend a bunch of seminars from today’s life coaches to come by these priceless secrets.

When I stumbled upon these, I was floored at how simple these tricks are. At first, I was very skeptical that they would work.

How could all this be so easy? Surely, there had to be more to it than this. I mean, I couldn’t believe how I was feeling more and more like a superhero than I ever felt in my life!

To say this information is life-changing doesn’t do it justice!

I went from someone who was struggling to climb the ladder in my career, to someone who regularly receives promotions and is on the fast track!

I used to get into regular shouting matches with my wife. I wasn’t sure if I was a good enough father to my kids. I was fearful of what my co-workers were saying. I was even convinced that they were plotting to end my career at one point.

I was a nervous wreck. Conflict of any kind was enough to make me break out in cold sweats! My level of confidence in myself was at lows that I’ve never known before.

It became so bad that I considered talking to my doctor about medication for depression and anxiety.

From nervous wreck to superstar – in a matter of days!

I meet regularly with the top executives of my company, and walk and talk with confidence I haven’t known in years!

My wife and I are closer than we’ve ever been. I have an incredible relationship with my kids.

I have the poise and skill to handle conflict as soon as it arises, and I get along much better with my co-workers. We even go out for drinks every week!

And I accomplished all of this, without the need for any kind of medication!

If I can do this, imagine what this can do for you!

This book can take your life to new heights, even beyond what you ever dreamed was possible! The information is easy to apply, and effective in its impact. You can take advantage of this information and have it on hand to read anywhere, in a convenient E-Book format.

You can have this information anywhere you go.

Today, I’m offering these secrets for the low price of only $15.99 if you order within the next 24 hours. ($40 value)

Consider all of the potential benefits you’ll experience. Imagine how much your relationships will improve.

If you don’t experience all of the benefits that the information can provide, simply send my team an e-mail within 30 days of your purchase. We’ll give you a FULL REFUND, plus you KEEP THE E-BOOK!
100% RISK-FREE!
I am so sure you’ll be pleased with your own life transformation, you’ll agree that this E-book pays for itself, many times over!
