As
some of you know, I’ve recently made my
52 Tips e-book
available. I’ve gotten some great feedback from people in
business, including entrepreneurs, sales people and
consultants, looking for effective but super-quick ways to
improve their copywriting and marketing skills.
This book is a one-a-week kit of tips and tools for
copywriters and do-it-yourself marketers. Here is a taste of
the kinds of information you’ll get in this book:
Respect the strength.
Some words, terms and word combinations can be quite strong
and effective. Let them stay that way and avoid bogging them
down with nonsense and meaningless fluff.
Know thy audience.
To connect with your target, visit online gathering places –
ones that your customers are likely to go – and pay attention
to what they have to say, what interests them, what business
issues concern them. Read their trade magazines as well. Then
familiarize yourself with features and benefits that your
customers appreciate. Finally, address these issues and use
your audience’s terminology in your copy.
If you want the order, ask for it!
Let’s say you have a fabulous product… the greatest thing
since sliced bread, a better mousetrap, whatever. But no
matter how great it is, you will still have to ask for the
order and tell your reader
just what to do. You must tell your prospects exactly
how to order and tell them to do it now. In other
words, make it as easy as possible for them to buy from you
and immediately start enjoying your product's or service’s
benefits.

I have been
meaning to ask you for some time if and how you are using and taking
advantage of online networking (aka “social media” or “social
marketing”) sites?
This includes sites like
MySpace,
LinkedIn
and Ryze as
well as countless others depending on your business, social goals and
age, such as
Facebook,
Second Life,
You Tube and
countless (and I mean countless!) others.
(By the way, I’m asking solely from a business standpoint, not from a
social, dating or personal relationship standpoint! So no stories
about match.com,
eHarmony or
JDate...please!)
What have you been doing? What’s working? How, if at all, have you
been able to monetize (love that word!) these online tools and
gathering places? Let me know
here
and I will start including your comments (with links to your website,
MySpace page, whatever you want) in upcoming
blog
entries.
This is an exciting time, with new and still-not-totally-mapped
territory. So as you make your mark, let me know about it!
Until next time….
Yours In Success,
 Allison Nazarian

they do is destined for mediocrity.
