How do you make writing real estate postcard marketing materials less stressful? This article discusses one of the most practical advices I can share with you about direct mail copywriting.
The most common problem we encounter when writing our real estate marketing copy is how to properly relay our thoughts to written words. Sometimes even if we already have an idea about the message we want to tell our potential customers, we still find it hard to translate them into proper order. It is therefore recommended that you begin the process by simply writing down your ideas. Afterwards, you can just arrange them in the right order.
You can simply start by writing your copy while keeping in mind the AIDA formula which stands for Attention, Interest, Desire, and Action. Make sure that you capture the attention of your customers right away by stating your services in an attractive way. Inform them about customer benefits and provide all the answers you think your potential customers have in mind.
Additionally, be sure to put in some subheads. When you believe you’ve written your copy – and the reasons why your readers should actually become your customers, then print this piece of paper out.
Next, with your scissors, cut the document into distinct paragraphs with the sub-headlines included. Of course, each of these paragraphs should contain coherent sentences.
Quickly read the entire document again. Group and re-arrange the paragraphs of your real estate direct mail to come up with a properly structured copy that has a strong introduction, informative body, and clear call to action.
Once again, read the entire draft of your real estate direct mail. Improve paragraph transitions when needed. You can also replace words in sentences to enhance its emotional appeal. Additional of powerful verbs can energize the copy. Well-placed exclamation marks can also be inserted to animate the copy.
No, you’re not quite done yet. Your next step is to re-read this copy again. Decide if you need to create any transitional sentences to make the copy flow better. You may even decide you need to rewrite a sentence or a whole paragraph. You may even decide you need to punch it up some with more action-oriented verbs. A few well placed exclamation points, even a couple of interjections that create excitement.
Go ahead. Make all the revisions you need to. If after that you think your copy would benefit from another printout and another round of jigsaw puzzle working, and then by all means do so. Before you know it, you’ve painlessly and nearly effortlessly, created an effective postcard mailing.
What at one time appeared to be an overwhelming task and simply out of your grasp is now tamed and brought under control. Don’t you wish everything worked like that?
