The Power of Words: Writing to Convert Readers Into Customers
Aug 31, 2017 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm

Your business is important. You have a product or a service that people need. But no one cares about any of it until they understand why it matters to them. When other people care as much as you do about what you have to offer, you succeed.
Powerful copywriting is how you get people to care.
Copywriting sound like a technical thing, or a boring thing, or a thing that English teachers talk about in dark, grammatically pristine reddit threads. But copywriting is, in fact, every single word you put out into the world on behalf of your business. It’s the words and sentences and stories in your brochures, press releases, websites, social media, live presentations, pitch meetings, business cards. And extraordinary copywriting makes people care and act.
This practical, hands-on workshop will give you tips and tools to write copy that connects with people and converts them to customers, so you can achieve the vision you hold for your business.
