"When Short Sales Copy is Effective Helping You to Make Money Online"


To do justice to those of you who know and understand that long salescopy isn’t always the answer to your website writing, I wanted to address when short copy makes more sense. In other articles discussing how to make money online, I pointed out that long salescopy should be used when you are selling one individual product, service or make money online program. I also emphasized that long salescopy should be used particularly when you have a service to sell.

Here I want to point out that there definitely is a place for short salescopy. There are a few circumstances where using short salescopy will assist you better to bring customers to the point of sale and hopefully as a result make money online fast or at least faster than if you were not to use short salescopy. By the way, I’d love to be able to say that you can make easy money online using short sales copy, but making money online fast or slow or any other way has more to do with all of the marketing methods you employ, not just short or long sales copy.

Back to short salescopy. When should you use it? Generally you should use short sales copy when you have many products to sell that fit into different categories. Think about it for a minute why would that be the case? You may consider that you simply want to make money online, why would it be better to use short sales copy if you are selling many products. What first comes to mind should be, how on earth do I write and make sense of all of the different reasons and benefits of buying several different products. You would simply mix the reader up by using long salescopy. If your reader is mixed up then there is little chance of making money online because they will not be able have confidence enough to click the button and buy.

Even if you thought that you could simply have a long salescopy separate and individual for each product, it’s not feasible that you’d ever make money online because you’d probably never finish your writing. Writing 10 pages for each product is a daunting task. You want to make money online as soon as you can and you need to get started as soon as you can. Attempting to write long salescopy wouldn’t work. Wanting to make steady money online and as soon as you can, when you are selling a variety of products, lends itself to having to write salessopy but not long salescopy.

This in no way implies that you shouldn’t write salescopy. In the instance of selling many products, it means you need to shorten it up and lead the visitor through the same sales process as found in long salescopy but in a less daunting way. This you can learn as well as when there is a call to learn long salescopy. Or professionals can write it for you.
