Everyday, people buy.

You see that phone you are holding, you bought it - or someone did for you. You will buy another one in maybe weeks. or months, you may even choose to wait another year - but you MUST still buy. It's a natural something.

The question is "why"? Maybe not even why. If you are a business-oriented person, everything you should be asking now is: "HOW DO I MAKE MONEY FROM ALL THIS SHII?"

***
First things first: There are only a few things I'll show you here that you may not have heard of somewhere else. The rest may be what you know - I'll only guide you to doing better and making money with that knowledge. And understand how you could tap into the everyday activities and make money.

So, who is it for and wetin this thread go yarn?

- It's for writers, who know how to tell a good story and want to make money from it. ( I want to hold your hands and show you how to become a real writer)
- It's for the Nigerian youth who wakes up every morning, and wonders why the heck they can't make a dime when they see guys rocking figures legitimately.
- it's for the freelancer, who want to know how to get clients. (Yeah, we will be looking at this together, my nigga)
-It's for the gentleman and lady that want to transform their mindset towards wealth creation and financial security.
- It's even for Mama Suliat if she wants to expand her fast-food business. After all, money is a natural something. Ahbi?

But I'll be focusing on Writers at the onset, then expand to sales, then mindset, then how to find opportunities, bla bla. Anyway, we'll see how it goes. I might release some copywriting ebooks I wrote for free to interested persons.

Oya, make I go chop

It's been a while since I dropped a word here. I understand if you're upset, I am too.

I am familiar with the feeling of waking up and looking at your phone for long hours expecting to get very helpful information that will benefit you, YET seeing nothing.

So, first I am sorry.

While it wasn't my intention to keep you waiting, nairaland and its banning bot had other plans. After my account got banned, I decided to take a break from the platform.

So, here we are - break over!

What's the game plan from here? For sure, you won't be watching. Since we'll be doing this together.

Goodluckleo:



In my first post for this thread, I said something "...everyday people buy."

And how right God knows I am.

There's something I want you to ask yourself: "why would a person save their quality money for an elephant-priced iPhone with features they can get in a far cheaper android device?

Think about the last time you went to a reaally good eatery with your babe. You spent money to buy chicken for 7k, when you could get it done for less than 3k (complete and even tastier). And the funny part of it all is, you were very happy to spend the money.

That's the magic of -not just copywriting- but branding as well.
We'll get into more details about that on a later date.

For now, I want you to look around you and mind-list up to 9 things you bought. Also think about why you bought each one.

Hint: you will likely be wrong about 'the why'.

But don't worry. In 24hours I will tell you why I think so.

Do have a pleasant day.

It's 8:21pm.

Dear friend,

Amidst the Sowore arrest, the busy days I've had so far, my trip to Abuja and diving into real-life marketing activities, it feels great to hold my PC and get into the Nairaland domain.

What have I got in mind today? To be crystal honest, I DON'T KNOW.

But let's see what the gods of copywriting and marketing have in store for my relatively small mind.

Last time, we looked into copywriting from the angle of headlines. And I'm impressed with some of the headline responses I got. Really, I'm happy you all gave it your best shot.

Here's another headline I'm thinking of;

One 3.5Amp fast charger + one bass enabled headphone + one powerful infernoX device that lasts up to 5 days without turning off. And it's all in ONE DEAL.
20% off if you buy the infernoX before 20th December.

We can also take it further like this...

Who doesn't fancy a smartphone that's beautiful to look at while being powerful enough to let you enjoy your whatsApp chat without battery low signs; or too weak to stop you from conquering enemies on PUBG?

Wait.... you could also enjoy the instaLife for days with a full charge. post and upload your best moments, and even delete what you don't like online without those frustrating device hanging issues...

Yup pal, it's all packed in one deal - the 8000MaH InfernoX pro with octa-core (8 new generation processing cores) and a 4GB ram alongside a display that plays Quad HD videos...bla bla bla...

And if you want to take it further, you can do something like this at the end of your copy...

...and if you still don't like this device, we get it! Not everyone loves the latest smartphone, packed with features for your everyday life.

Just tell us in the comment section how sad you are with our product (Yes, we have provided a comment section, because we value your opinion...) and you'll get a response that stops you from ever seeing our product on your device AGAIN(sounds fair?)

But if you love it, We don't see why you shouldn't the first one to get this product in your hands. Since you'll be among the first 1000 people to get the infernoX, we are dropping this device in your hands at a bone-cracking 23% discount. Yeah. whatever makes the customer happy right?

And even though it's not the easiest thing to do considering the discount, we are giving you a 1yr warranty if you encounter problems with your device. That's a guarantee of quality for 12 complete months or 3-6-5 days even if you use your device every day.

The warranty is for everyone. But the full 23% discount? That really depends on you.

So, I just pumped that into the bucket of nairaland. Oh...it's already 8:58pm (I guess I'm too slow with this thinking and typing thing).

But you get the picture of what we are doing here right? Okay, lemme tell you.

We are giving the infernoX life using just words from our head....also creating a picture in the customers' head for what their life will be like with the device.

We want the customer to see what this product is all about even before holding it in their hands. We want them to desire this "larger-than-life" product.

Now imagine targeting this copy to those who want to buy a device next month? Or when their device just got spoilt. BAM! You hit a market for the infernoX!

You must be asking, how would you know?! But friend, I tell you the truth, the 21st century has given us many tools. But that's not our topic for today.

So let's get back.

If you understand everything I did above, then in frank words "you have understood COPYWRITING."

If you still don't, future posts could help.

Now, let me break what I did up there a bit.

See the way I started by mentioning all the simple things you'd find in almost any device you buy today? Earpiece, charger, good battery, etc?

I mentioned them one-by-one as though only the infernoX device has them. And one of the best phrases in that headline followed ...all in one deal.

Everyone wants the best value for their money. And by singling all those items out, you create a PERCEPTION in the heart of the customers. (Established copywriters understand what I mean).

Your future buyers begin to feel like "wow! These guys are giving me a lot for my money...". You get what I mean now? haha...you should.

How do you think people sell simple watches for 10's of thousands of dollars and people still buy. (Oh...one new reason just popped into my head...wow...I won't tell you yet. I will test this idea on a product later and see if it works...I'm really impressed with myself.)

So, that's enough lesson for today right? Err...why do I feel you will say no.

Okay, lemme make all of us happy (myself included). Let me try writing another copy for business software that reduces the workload for smart business professionals. Choi...how will I begin?

Just watch and learn.
(Expect an assignment after this. if the engagement is high, we continue.)

So, business software.

Headline: Intelligent software stops you from working excessively for long cold hours in the familiar walls of your office. Best of all - it adapts to your needs!

Body

One software for the professional who wants to do their best at work and get their favorite ideas working - even in the shortest possible time.

(Do you see how I reintroduce the software again in more mouth-watering words?) Now, let's get on...

Even though it's quite unbelievable (see what I did here?), we've discovered there are only 3 types of business professionals.

- The Smart ones
- The giant-fingered folks
- The respected and distinguished royals

The smart guys know how to get every job done on time and in great condition. Of course, they make mistakes - but are smart enough to correct them before much damage is done.

They have elegant secretaries and well-designed brochures with great clients in their portfolio.

The giant-fingered folks as you may have guessed are the workaholics. They are the ones who shout at the top of their voice behind closed doors. Mostly tired and claim to "enjoy their job".

The respected and distinguished royals are rare to find. They know how to get the job done, and share a lot of characteristics with the smart ones.

However, unlike the smart ones, the royals go for vacations and seem to enjoy life and still manage to deliver unmatchably brilliant results. They are usually everyone's role model (We are guessing you know these ones).

So, you've been working late nights, heating your skin on boiling water and usually get so tired that there's less time for anything. Your eyes are looking so tired from coffee and late nights... even if that;'s not what you want.

You probably want to grow your reputation and build authority as a professional in your industry. And you want to do this without screaming in frustration when there's no one to listen.

Here's how we can help.

One software designed with the business professional in mind, Meant for the giant fingered professional that wants to grow to royal-level and even the smart folks that need more time to do what feels great.

What this utitlity can help you do:
(bla...bla)

Hope you see what I did there? I could complete this copywriting piece to the last and after edits use it to generate millions for any client that needs something similar.

But hey! I'm giving you for free on nairaland. To use it, edit it and MASTER the pattern. Not bad right?

Here's what I want you to do. Find a product or service, anyone of your choice and create a copy for me. Send it to the comment as an attachment. Or if you want to go private, send it via my email. I'll read it and respond to you where it can be corrected.

if I get up to 10 responses, we give it a go-ahead. Sounds good?

Night guys, it's nearly 10pm.

Goodluckleo:


If today, we've not gotten 10 people minimum for the assignment. I will painfully have to wave goodbye.
