What is Copywriting?

Hi,

Please put some light on me regarding Copywriting.

What is the exact work of an copywriter? Who needs copywriter and when?
How does a fresher copywriter earns abroad and in India?
What skills should the Copywriter have?

Thanks in advance.

 

Copywriting is the technique of writing words to promote a product, a business, a person or an idea

 

Copywriting means writing copy. Except in Perry's case, when it should really be called 'Crappywriting'

 

Look it up, dumbass.

 

There are dozens and dozens of threads inside this section asking the same and getting dozens and dozens of replies to put more than some light on anyone.

 

Copy-writing is copy the content. copy-writing is the use of words and ideas to promote a person, business, opinion or idea.

 

Thanks a lot buddies.

 

Copy writing is probably THE most important thing in selling anything.

You need to be able to sell snow to Eskimos and make people want to buy.

Top copywriters earn 7 figure salaries

The Copywriter's Handbook by Robert Bly for a good intro.

 

You'll gain a whole lot more by reading it up yourself.Google is a good place to start!

 

Thanks a lot buddies.

nice information...

Copyright is a type of property that is founded on a person's creative skill and labour. It is designed to prevent the unauthorised use by others of a work, that is, the original form in which an idea or information has been expressed by the creator.

The definition of copywriting these days have undergone drastic change. Simply put. It is the art of copying someone's article and re-writting it to give a unique style. The method is employed mostly by people who do guest post in blogs and websites to promote some websites that pays them. Hope you get the meaning

 

your comparison "sell snow to Eskimos and make people want to buy" is cool ^^ And I also appreciate the recommendation of Copy writer's Handbook.

on my observation, there are no fixed tips to become a copywriter. Thought being creative is an important prerequisite, threre should be many more qualities like being flexible and observant. A copywriter observes every thing around him, learn others' ideas and experiences and then make them belong to his own by some creative changes. And that's not all, he has to be extremely persuasive to be able to convince his manager as well as his customers. And also has enough endurance to follow the tristest customers, and that's not all LOL. And copywriter is not somebody who just like to copy

 

The skill to make people believe in everything you say (write)

 

Copywriting is salesmanship in print.

 

Copywriting is salesmanship through the written word. A good copywriter has "decent" writing skills and understand how to get into the consumer's mind. If you have a website with good quality copy, you basically have a 24/7 salesman working for you for FREE. That's the best way I can describe it.

 

Well !! copy-writing is art of promoting any Business, Product and Services with the decent words by understanding their consumers need, any website need a good copy-writer who can involve visitors
and finally compel them to get product purchased, In other word we can say a copy-writer is a sales person who indirectly sale your Product or Services with the help of their unique writing skills.

 

A copywriter is a salesman in print.

He's a good story teller and he knows what makes people take a certain action.

He's not a writer.

That's all you should get to know.
