Food for Thought
Copywriting is simply writing that persuades people to buy into idea or a product or a service or a believe.
Nobody is going to sell your writing with the passion and the care and the intimate knowledge of the writing better than you.
We are more effected by stories than we are by facts.
What you are actually selling is the transformation that your product or service brings about.
Selling is essentially a transfer of feelings. - Zig Zigler
You have to have feelings about the product or service you're selling.
