WEBINAR: Crafting Copy for Creatives

October 24, 2022 @ 6:00 pm 7:00 pm

Copywriting is the backbone of marketing and when it’s done well, makes your reader react. It’s how you motivate, encourage, and convince your audience to engage with your business and buy what you have to sell. Crafting good copy requires top-tier writing skills, a lot of research, passion, and a big dose of empathy.

It’s also crucial when it comes to building your brand, establishing your authority, and generating trust. Good copy does a lot to shape the future of your business and position yourself in the market—there’s a lot riding on your words!

With this in mind, we have recruited copywriter-tuned-lawyer Anita Siek of Wordfetti to explore the tenets of good copywriting, the psychology behind words that convert, and how to write effective copy that’s bursting with personality and pizazz. You won’t want to miss this one!

We’ll explore:
+ What copywriting *actually* is and why it’s so important
+ The psychology of persuasive copywriting
+ The role empathy plays in your words and marketing
+ Injecting your copy with your values and personality
+ and so much more!

We’ll share a bunch of resources to help you stay up to date and keep track of changes and you’ll have the opportunity to get your questions answered by our expert presenters.
