Copywriting: Crafting a Compelling Narrative That Converts
I wanted to start from the beginning since I was asked this summer (by a pretty bright fella) if copywriting was like trademarking.

Copywriting is an integral part of content marketing and is the art of crafting a narrative that resonates with your audience.
When done well, copywriting can be powerful — engaging readers emotionally, persuading them to take action, and convincing them to invest in your product or service.
Writing copy is not just about putting words on a page — it’s about understanding your audience and using copy to entice them to sign up or buy.
It really should be called sales writing because that’s what it is.
