Using Realism in Copy and Art

One important aspect of making copy believable is using realism in both the copy and the accompanying visuals. This involves using testimonials that sound like they were written by real people, even if the grammar or language may sound a bit awkward. It also means using models in images who don't look overly polished or perfect, instead opting for a more relatable and natural appearance. By keeping things authentic and unpolished, it increases the sense of believability for the audience.
