At the heart of any successful small business is a creative human being.
And it’s important that we remember to put our very human voice out there to connect with our preferred clients and customers.
And yet, when it comes to writing copy or content, we often stiffen up. Being an authentic human being should be the most natural thing ever — so why does it often feel so unnatural when we try?
Plus, authenticity is determined by the audience, not by whatever pops in your head to say. And that means that communicating in a relatable way takes a lot of listening, and then mirroring back to your audience the language and tone they prefer.
In this week’s episode of Unemployable, we’re joined by copywriter Nick Usborne, who specializes in “conversational copy. Tune in to hear some of Nick’s favorite methods for creating engaging messages that catch and hold attention, while inching people ever closer to doing business with you.
