For today’s marketers, the top two pillars of copywriting are to know your audience and focus on benefits. This philosophy also applies to sales. In general, customers are more responsive to sales pitches when they understand how your product or service will meet their needs. Your customers need to understand what you offer and why you’re better than your competitors.
Part of your overall business success is getting your products or services in the hands of the right target market. To achieve this task, you need to effectively communicate the value that awaits potential prospects if they choose to do business with you. Your value speaks to prospects’ pain points and sheds insight into what differentiates your company from your competitors.
