Let's talk about features v benefits, and debunking a common copywriting myth that more features means better copy.
While it’s tempting to list every amazing feature of your product or service, true persuasion lies in highlighting the benefits—the real-world solutions that resonate with your audience’s needs.
We often see companies relying too heavily on product or service features in their copy. It’s a common pitfall that can alienate potential customers!
By focusing on the benefits, you can connect emotionally with your customers – they can see how your offering will improve their lives. You can solve their problems and position yourself as the solution they’ve been searching for. For example, we are the solution to your problem of having no time to create captivating content!! 😊
Benefits may also help you stand out in a crowded market. You can differentiate your brand by highlighting what makes your product valuable to your customers.
How do you do this in your content?
Here’s a couple of tips to get you started:
Ask “What’s in it for them?”: Always frame your messaging around the customer’s perspective. How will they benefit from your product or service?
Use customer stories: Share testimonials or case studies that illustrate the positive impact of your offering. Real-life examples are powerful persuaders!
Keep it clear and concise: Make your benefits easy to understand. Avoid jargon and focus on clarity to ensure your message resonates.
