Kanye West made it clear by saying: “to whom much is given, much is tested” with his hit song in 2007, “Can't tell me nothing". Excuse my French, but if I need to seek the best way to make my point, I will jolly well try it out. In my earlier years as a banker with one of the major banks in Nigeria, I learned that activity is different from being effective. That simple!
What makes a thing effective is understanding its purpose and addressing it within the right time frame to get the result of its purpose. Similarly, effective copywriting cannot be said if it omits purpose and fails to achieve results.
This post will help identify the five components of effective copywriting.
Before we proceed, I must thank The Watchtower-Web Design Agency Dubai for making this platform possible to share my article.

What are the five components of effective copywriting?
1. Have a striking Call to Action [CTA]
So, you have created amazing content. Perhaps the graphic designer also did an amazing job with the ad. Brilliant! But away from reading the post, the precise information on the purpose must be clear and direct. The audience must see the reason why they should take action now rather than later.
A good example would be “Save AED 30 when you order before the 19th of August”. The edge CTAs give is that they always appear as a better option than the regular ad, so make it count.
2. New and Improved
Everyone likes the idea of a product or service being the latest, which means it has been modified. Testing different messages and offers can increase the response rate beyond the measures you expected. Additionally, keep testing to see if you can make your current results even better with a few easy copy adjustments. To determine what is and is not functioning, it is crucial to track everything.
3. Provide a unique service/product.
Given the vast array of products available to pet owners, this dog biscuit must stand out from the competition in copywriting. This means that, other than the knowledge of owning a service or product, the writer needs to strike a meaningful cutting edge as to why the product or service is better than the competitor. This may be why it is considered the healthiest, it helps increase sensory neurons, sharpens canines, etc.
This is frequently referred to as your USP, or unique selling point. What distinguishes you from every other good or service available?
4. Focus on your audience.
Everyone needs to ensure that the content is directed to the right set of audiences for the necessary action. This act means that you can’t be promoting a sanitary towel at a boys' hostel that is male-dominated. If you need to focus on only the thing that drives you to close a sale, and if it is not, then one can get off and reattempt again.
In a one-on-one “conversation,” the copy needs to explain how the product solves problems or how the cat owner desires to provide fresh, healthy water. If outsourcing your copy, work with a writer who has experience in your market, understands their wants, needs, and desires, and knows their type of language or jargon.
5. Show proof.
I don’t know where you live, but one thing I know works for sure here is testimonials. People love the idea that someone can identify with a brand/service and share how well it meets their needs. To make sure dog owners don’t hesitate or worry that the dog food does beyond fill the dog’s stomach, perhaps a before and after would do just fine. Whatever the strategy is considered, kindly provide the best to provide specific proof that the product works, such as customer testimonials, and test results compared to other products.
Copywriting has been seen to be generating the right buzz for intentional marketing strategies, especially on digital platforms, as you can see right now. Copywriting requires much more than the meager efforts of content writing.
