S5E19: Words That Sell: How to Write Compelling Copy with Kate Bonnycastle
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Copywriting is about more than just words. It’s the art and science of crafting persuasive and compelling written content with the purpose of driving action, creating emotional connection, and conveying messages that resonate and motivate your audience. Whether you’re creating a landing page, composing an email or social media post, effective copywriting is essential in today’s business world.
Kate Bonnycastle gets a kick out of helping entrepreneurs find the exact words they need to land clients they love. She goes deep into word choice and language to make writing pop and offers sell. Kate has spent 15-plus years in agencies, marketing departments, and her own business copywriting for clients around the world. Her specialty is nailing brand voice and abstract ideas so coaches and consultants can attract and convert naturally, honestly and consistently. When building your business is part of how you express who you are, finding the right words is essential... and hard! Kate turns writing from a Terrifying Task into a Powerful Practice so you can connect with the people who need you.
In this episode, Kate shares the 3 components of brand voice (word choice, pacing and attitude), things we have to unlearn to sound ‘normal’, how to put more of YOU into your writing in a way that cannot be AI generated, if you can make your writing personal without making it too personal, and much more!
