The Task: Identify and document the most compelling sales benefits of your product or service, and translate these key points into effective marketing deliverables.
Project Execution: Learn how to:
- Systematically discover all of the most important benefits of your product, prior to any sales copywriting project;
- Intelligently sort these benefits by their effectiveness in generating prospect response;
- Determine whether to use long copy vs. short copy for maximum effectiveness in any lead generation or prospect conversion campaign;
- Effectively drive and manage the copywriting process to make sure that key sales benefits are effectively presented in the final marketing deliverable.
Benefits to You: Create and write—or manage the process of creating and writing—effective sales copy that generates strong, measurable response in marketing deliverables used for lead generation and prospect-to-customer conversion.
Effective sales copy is at the core of every marketing project—for e-mail marketing campaigns, online or print ad layouts, brochures, flyers, landing pages and every other deliverable used in B2B lead generation and lead conversion campaigns.
Clearly and boldly communicating your product's most compelling sales and problem-solving benefits, in a way that motivates the reader or viewer to take the next step you want them to take—to visit your company's Web site, click to download content, or contact your company's sales rep—means the difference between attracting a new prospect who takes the first step to become a customer, or losing that prospect's attention, possibly forever.
Claude Hopkins, father of modern promotional advertising in the early 20th century, famously called advertising "salesmanship in print." And while the new online and digital media are radically different than those used even 30 years ago, advertising is still all about presenting your product's most important, problem-solving sales benefits, clearly and powerfully across all online, print, and video media in your company's B2B marketing program.
This module, along with BMI module 4 (B2B Copywriting and Layout for Direct Response II) provide you with the project-ready, step-by-step process for learning how to capture your product's most compelling sales benefits and transforming these benefits into effective, response-generating sales copy for any B2B marketing project. Mastering the skills covered in this MSD module is critical, because effective sales copywriting is the essential part of every other marketing activity covered by BMI MSD training.
