Turn Words into Wealth

Use professionally-written ad copy to show potential customers that you have what they need. I can provide that ad copy.

How? Well, when creating an ad, I enhance a client’s existing brand message. I shape that message into a pitch that emphasizes the benefits of a product or service.

Better yet, I provide a pitch that contains the client’s voice, not mine. After all, it’s my job to make him or her look good and to generate revenue.

The Writing Process:

Research

The foundation of effective copy is research. That’s why I spend time studying the products that I’m going to promote. Doing so enables me to narrow down the target market and competitors. As a result, I’m able to choose the right product positioning.

Outline

Before writing the ad copy, I create a detailed outline. The outline shows that the copy will meet a client’s needs.

Write

When it’s time to write, I produce a compelling pitch that’s exciting and convincing. My ad copy always gets results. How can I make that claim? It’s simple. I have many years of experience.

Sincerely,

Glenn Bossik
High Concept Media, LLC

Copywriting For Affiliate Offers

Quality ad copy should support and enhance the graphics that are being used to promote a product. Text and imagery should work synergistically. For example, while at the affiliate network, The Useful, I was tasked with designing and writing the ad copy for a landing page featuring baby products. The domain name was GetMyFreeBabyStuff.com, so the target market was low- to middle-income women.

I knew that I had to build trust and communicate a benefit quickly. My approach involved placing the headline under the site’s logo, which was heavily stylized, giving it a branded feel. The headline, “Be good to your baby,” appealed to every mother’s need to raise her child well. Pictures of happy babies pointed to two content boxes. One box featured the baby products and used the call to action, “Get a baby product, FREE (with completion of program requirements).”

Below the call to action was an additional statement. The purpose of the statement was to reinforce every mother’s need to keep her baby happy. This statement read, “Be a good parent. Pick a product.” In a content box to the right of this ad copy was the email submission form that would route site visitors into a registration path.

Each visitor would then have to opt-in to several offers to qualify for the chosen baby product. Traffic was driven to the landing page through various publishers, as well as with a radio spot running in our target markets. The publishers were very enthusiastic about the baby offer. They pushed quite a bit of traffic to it and made money on it. The landing page can be viewed here.
