Episode notes
Copy Is About The Prospect, Not The Product
- Copy should not be about features or vague benefits; it must reflect a prospect's specific pains and desires.
- Targeted messaging to one precise customer type beats fuzzy, middle-of-the-road copy every time.
Research Their Words, Not Just Problems
- Do research to capture both the unique pains/desires and the exact words prospects use to describe them.
- When you mirror prospect language, your message resonates emotionally and requires no translation.
Interview Customers And Harvest Phrases
- Do customer interviews and record their exact phrasing; ask what led them to buy and what worried them about trying it.
- Use repeated unexpected phrases from multiple interviews as high-value copy triggers.
