Flourish Writers Conference

I am excited because I'm going to have my friend Mindy Kiker on today to talk about writing. So if you don't know this, the Flourish Writers' conference is going on right now and I am a guest speaker, sharing how to present yourself on Instagram how writers can present your books and how to share them in the right way.

But also, today we want to talk about how to write good copy. We need this for Instagram, email, captions, and headlines. And I have talked a lot lately about how to step up your game when it comes to writing.

I'm going to have Mindy Kiker come on. She is, is one of the cofounders of flourished writers along with Jenny Kochert.

Copywriting prompts to get followers engaged: Tip 1
1) Get clear on the purpose or value of your script

If you can capture what it is you want to say in one sentence, that is going to set the foundation for you to stay clear on what it is you're saying. So the first tip is to be clear on your purpose, and I challenge you to write one sentence that explains it a nice, clear language. What is this about?

Make it about them.

Be clear on your purpose. And this can, this can apply to every blog posts, every Instagram caption, every Facebook post, whatever, but be clear on it.

Channeling. What is it that my reader needs? Think about what is keeping them up at night, and what is eating their lunch?  Then you hook them in. You've got to have a hook - everybody's trolling and scrolling. What's going to catch them?

My first tip is purpose. If that one sentence that becomes your, your guideline so that you, you don't get off track into bunny trails, I always say banish the bunny trails.

2) Be clear on your value

People want to be able to connect with you. You've got to have something to hook them in, to see you as a real person who has something of tremendous value to give them.

Please. Don't mess it up with complicated sentences, complicated language. We always talk about being concrete, not abstract and being specific, not general.
