Tips For Becoming A Successful Natural Health Copywriter

By Raymond Robinson


If you've got a knack for writing sales copy and want to make some extra income without going into an office every day, there are business websites that could use your services. You could market those services to the supplement industry and become a natural health copywriter. To do the job well, and increase your client base, you have to learn everything you can about what the motivation is behind the purchases supplement consumers make.

First you have to figure out who these consumers are. You may have to dig into the demographics to do the research. It could be that there are multiple profiles who are interested in these products for a variety of different reasons.

You should check out blogs to find out why people believe in the supplements they take and how they think the supplements make them healthier. If you have a business client in the market, he may have conducted surveys already. If he will share the results with you, you will get a lot of good information from them.

The best copy is conversational. You need to write as though you were talking with a friend. The language you use should be simple and straightforward. You never want to sound as though you are preaching to a congregation. It is perfectly acceptable, when writing copy, to forego a lot of the English sentence structure you learned in high school. You can't abandon good grammar, but you can use it informally to create your own voice.

Getting into the minds of your target audience is important. You've got to understand what they are concerned about and what their most pressing health problems are. This way you can effectively address the solution. Of course the solution will be the product you are marketing. Your job is to tell your audience why they need the product and have to act now.

Do not underestimate the value of a striking headline. You need to spend a lot of time polishing the headlines you end up with, experimenting with different words and phrases. The headline will determine whether your audience reads the text or moves on to a competitor. Even if you're advertising an amazing product, it won't be recognized unless the words you use in your headlines stops the reader and compels him to continue reading.

Second in importance to the headline is the first sentence of the text. Once you have gotten the reader's attention with the headline, you don't want him to lose interest with a complicated introduction. You must use straightforward language and offer solid information. The first sentence should tell the reader you understand the problem. The text that follows must explain how you're going to solve it.

Don't make outrageous claims you can't back up. When you are writing about things like supplements, the reader is going to be looking for legitimate proof of the benefits. Testimonials are fine, but not sufficient to compel the consumer to buy. Scientific studies and other evidence, presented in a realistic manner, can tip the scales enough to convince your reader to purchase.
