3 Copywriting Formulas Will Instantly Upgrade Your Copy

Selling is both an art and a science.

Today, let’s talk about the science.

Normally you can’t “template” your copy, but… there are a few basic formulas that can give your website or landing page copy an instant facelift.

Here they are:

Before-After-Bridge (BAB) formula

This formula uses the power of transformation, plus a logical bridge to give context.

Here’s an example:

  • Normally it takes hours to catch up on marketing news. With [Newsletter Name], it takes 7 minutes. We look through 500+ pieces of news, five days a week, to serve you with the stuff that’ll make you a smarter marketer.

Feature-So-Benefit formula

Lead with the feature, use a word like “that” or “so,” then write the benefit.

Here’s an example:

  • [Newsletter Name] curates the most important marketing news 5 days a week so you can become a smarter marketer in just 7 minutes a day.

Timeframe-Result-Without formula

Be specific about the timeframe, be specific about the result, and then wrap it up with a phrase like “without” or “even if.”

For example:

  • Become a smarter marketer in 7 minutes per day without having to sort through old news and bad information.

There you go… science!

We’ve got a couple dozen more of these formulas in our back pocket, so if you enjoyed this section, let us know and we’ll write more in the future.
