If it doesn't persuade... It's useless!

So, how to start?

I often start with Axel Andersson's / Denny Hatch's 7 emotional triggers... You can read about them in Denny Hatch's book, "Method Marketing."

Why? It's to make sure I have the emotional appeals... and I'm not appealing to just logic!

(It's best to have both.)

In a regular promotional piece, I also generally follow the AIDA formula... Attention, Interest, Desire, and Action.

Where possible, I like to put in as much "proof" as possible. This adds credibility. A lot of people don't realize how important this is!

Anyway... Here are 27 copywriting "formulas" which could help your persuasive writing!
