    Why bother hiring a writer for your brochure or website? After all, you know how to write. You’ve been writing since you were a child. You may even be pretty good at it. Here’s the thing to remember: There’s more to writing than mastering grammar and adding flare to a sentence. Marketing writers write to sell.

    Let me explain. To convince your potential client to buy your product or service, you need words that do three things. You need copy to:

    • Grab the readers’ attention
    • Communicate a message
    • Persuade the reader to act

    It is only when your brochure or website, or any marketing material for that matter, does these three things, that it is effective. It is only then that your investment in your marketing materials will pay off.

    So, what’s so special about a marketing writer’s prose? What gives their words such power? Marketing writers write clearly and concisely. They communicate a message. They organize text carefully. They translate industry-specific jargon. They create interest and show how the product or service is superior. And, finally, marketing writers ask the reader respond – by switching to a new company, making a call, or sending a check.

    The ability to write attention-getting, communicative, persuasive copy is the key to marketing writing. It is also the key to the question – why use a professional writer? Simply put, marketing writers are experts at writing winning words to sell a product or service.
