Copywriting Secrets
The strategy behind writing like Ernest Hemingway
Presentation by Kostas Stavrakis | Athens - February 7, 2020
What is
Copywriting?
What we use
honesty, transparency,
authenticity
By Listening the target market
and understanding their pain-
points
By Communicating the benefit
We can use words in order to convince someone do
something.
Copywriting is a combination of artistic/creative and
scientific methods we can follow in order to give value.
What is NOT
Copywriting?
Copywriting shouldn’t be
manipulative
Copywriting shouldn’t be
hacking people’s psychology
For example: This will change
your life!
The 3 main Pillars of Copywriting
Listen before you
write
Focus your message Write with simplicity
Listen before
you write
Online Research
Blogs
Reviews
Forums
Interviews with target market
Tip: Don’t assume , know – learn
from people and use their own
words
Focus your
Message
Simple targeted
messages stick
Create a customer
avatar
Ask the 3 main
questions:
What is the most
important thing about
your message?
What feeling does
your reader want
most?
What action you want
your reader to take?
Write with simplicity
Stop trying to be
clever!
Write like you talk www.hemingwayapp.com
What is a headline and why is it important?
The reason to open one email / blog-post / in order to get our reader go through a
customer journey, to the next step or level
Is there any formula for writing Headlines?
(Self – Interest ) + Curiosity Trigger and/or News
Formulas for Copywriting
AIDA – Attention,
Interest, Desire, Action
PAS – Pain, Agitate,
Solve
4US – Unique, Useful,
Ultra-Specific, Urgent
WIIFM – What’s in for
me?
Features VS Benefits
Feature: Describes the product Benefit: How the product makes the
reader’s life better
Any questions?
