How to stand out in a crowd - advice for cw's and marketers
Can you see what's wrong with this yet?
They're all doing the same thing, pretty much the same way so one ad looks very much like the next.
What's your USP, do you have one? If you have a unique selling point get it across early, before the client click away from your 'looks like every other' copywriting' ad.
Yes the client needs to be sold on all the great things you can do for them fast.
Yes the benefits you can bring to their marketing campaign and their wallet needto be stated clearly straight away.
Right?
Wrong!
I'm a consumer too and as a consumer I want to know what a person's credentials are very early on.
I want to know quickly, what qualifies you to do anything for me. As a consumer 'experience and real results' is what has me sold, not 'talk'.
Talk is cheap afterall.
Lots of marketers talk a good talk but that's all it is..talk.
The 'talk' masks their lack of real success and experience which is why they can't highlight it. ie...they have none.
If you are a wanabee marketer, be aware that when a client is switching between ads to find the best person for the job, both ads might contain those same benefits early on. The same benefits that you see on a billion freelance writer ads.
Therefore what makes the difference in that case is credentials or your USP.
If you have some and the other marketer does not you'll be the one contracted.
Benefits are very important, but if the client came looking for those benefits, they already know what they are, what they don't know is anything about you.
So actually selling yourself first is a important feature of 'self' promotion.
Good luck
