Think Like a Sales Person

Look, I could have just called this article “how to write good articles”, but you wouldn’t click, right? You get my point. You need a title that sits right. Like, just look at the most popular articles on here, you will see that they’ve got inventive titles, or they’re “top ten ways to…” or they have some mention of sex in the title. Just something to get people’s attention!

Get the Scoop

Write well. Just don’t really overdo it on the professionalism. Put forward a case. Write like a person and not a robot. Get people on side! Pitch your work as an “angle”. In this article my “angle” is a witty, slightly funny, yet informative article that you will remember. It stands out, it’s more unique. In other of my articles you will notice that I am more professional or pitch to a different crowd.

Find Your Passion

What could be more miserable than writing about something you hate? Look, if you’re going to write for people to read your work, then you owe it to them to write about something about which you are passionate. Don’t cheat yourself, and dno’t cheat your readers, potential or actual, who deserve to have a flamin’ hot writer, writing about something they feel flamin’ hot about! I couldn’t write squat about sports (other than wrestling) unless I researched it! Then it would sound as boring as porridge. I love counseling, I love music, I love writing and I love books, so guess what I’m writing about? You have three guesses and the first two don’t count!

Don’t Over-Think Things

You will probably notice that I haven’t exactly policed my grammar here! This is because people like to read something that’s written the way they actually talk! It draws people in! People don’t like boring prose! They like conversational writing, and SHORT sentences!

So, hey, I hope you enjoyed this and laughed just a little! So, for now, happy writing.
