WHAT IS COPYWRITING?

Copywriting is an art and science. Copywriting is the strategic and creative communication of information online, or in print, with the objective of advertising or marketing a product, service, person or idea, and inciting a desired action.

Copywriters conceive and write copy and content for websites, social media, print advertising, online advertising, press releases, brochures, taglines, magazine articles, advertorials, direct mail, annual reports, sales collateral, signage, jingle lyrics, blogs, email campaigns, packaging, catalogues, speeches, radio, television and video scripts, and database marketing campaigns.

COPYWRITING THAT IS ENGAGING AND EVOCATIVE

A copywriter is a wordsmith. A copywriter’s words have the power to persuade, by increasing awareness of a product, service or brand, and influencing a person or group to take a specific action. Copywriters need to comprehend a business’ ethos, target audience, strategic priorities, brand proposition and brand voice to write creative and compelling copy. Copywriters define the tone and manner of marketing communications. They communicate the key messages of a business or brand, and the features and benefits of a product or service. Copywriters specialize in the verbal elements of marketing communications and often direct the visual elements of the design to ensure cohesiveness, and achieve for optimum results.
