Convert Like A Charm – Jon Buchan
Does your sales copy get positive replies and enthusiastic buys?
Using humour and persuasion together changed my life. Let me teach you my own style of copywriting that gets results.
The Charm Offensive copywriting style began its life as a way to get responses from cold emails and other cold pitches.
This context is very different from writing pitches to an existing opted-in email list or by posting a pitch on social media.
More recently, I’ve blended my disarming humorous style with rhetorical devices and the persuasive concepts of direct response copywriting to great effect.
There are studies on the use of humour in the world of advertising and persuasion.
I have included a few succinct cherry-picked tidbits from these studies below:
“Humour attracts attention.” ~ Weinberger and Gulas, University of Massachusetts.
”The use of self-effacing humour by a source would increase the effectiveness of a persuasive message.” ~ Lyttle (2001)
“Humour enhances liking. In fact, the link between humour and liking is stronger than for any of the other factors.” ~ Freedman, Sears, and Carl Smith (1978)
“One positive quality in a person causes us to assume that the individual has many positive qualities.” ~ Seiter and Gass (2004)
“Humour does not harm comprehension.” ~ Weinberger and Gulas, University of Massachusetts.
“Humour is a tool that can enhance a well-crafted persuasive message.” ~ Lyttle (2001)
“People who are in a good mood are less likely to disagree with a persuasive message.” ~ Freedman, Sears, and Carl Smith (1978)
I’ve developed a style which stands out, entertains, and most importantly, converts.
I’ve distilled my process for creating this potent blend of charm and persuasion in an ebook that will teach you all you need to know to start applying these techniques to your own copy.
