Want to Make Your Brand Unforgettable?
Perhaps you’ve wondered why certain brands seem to jump out at you while others fade into the background. While there are always multiple reasons for this, the one we’re focusi
Here’s how to optimise your brand messaging with an effective CTA.
Every piece of content you generate for your business should have an end-goal in mind. Perhaps you want to generate a sale or motivate someone to book a call with you. Maybe you want them to subscribe to your newsletter. Regardless of the exact desire, all these outcomes depend on one critical aspect: the prospect responding favourably to your Call-To-Action (CTA).
So what determines how someone will respond?
We’ve created a table of the 8 key questions you should ask when generating the CTA for your next piece of content.
Clarity
Ask yourself: Is this CTA clear and concise?
Use simple language. If the action you’re asking the reader to take is too confusing, they are likely to ignore it altogether.
Value Proposition
Ask yourself: Am I promising something that is genuinely valuable?
If the perceived value of what you’re offering doesn’t seem beneficial to the reader, they are unlikely to respond positively.
Relevance
Ask yourself: Does this CTA align with my reader’s needs, interests, or current situation?
Personalising the CTA based on the reader’s preferences will enhance its relevance.
Urgency
Ask yourself: Are the words I’m using inspiring the reader to act quickly?
Using words like “limited time offer,” or including a countdown can prompt immediate responses.
Emotional Appeal
Ask yourself: Which strong emotion is this likely to evoke?
Using words that spark excitement, curiosity, or a fear of missing out (FOMO) can persuade the reader to take action.
Trustworthiness
Ask yourself: Have I included a testimonial/fact/endorsement in my content that backs up any claims I’m making?
Readers are more likely to respond favourably to CTAs from sources they trust.
Design and Placement
Ask yourself: When I skim-read this content, does my CTA stand out?
A visually appealing CTA that has been strategically placed where readers are likely to notice it can lead to better responses.
Ease of Action
Ask yourself: How easy is it to complete this CTA?
Once they’ve clicked on your CTA, ensure that the process is quick and easy to complete to prevent the reader from abandoning the action halfway through.
By using this simple checklist, you can easily leverage the power of words to craft a compelling CTA and prevent all your future content from being ineffective.
