"Am I being too forward?"
"Not forward enough?"
"Is my reader ready to hear this?"
"Does this come off condescending?"
Forget all that.
Look.
Sales copy will never be easy.
You'll never be able to skip some of those difficult moments where there are no clear right or wrong answers.
However...
You definitely can (and should) stay away from questions that make you shy away from selling.
Not only do they slow you down, they make a lot of well-meaning copywriters, creatives, and business owners feel an urge hold back. To play it safe.
Usually a little too safe.
Better questions, better copy.
Even if you don't have tons of writing or sales experience, there's one question to ask that will move you forward much faster:
"Do I have my reader's trust?"
Because when you lead with trust, it won't really even feel like you're selling.
And to be honest — you can worry less about choosing the "best" word or phrasing.
Because when you're writing to build trust, you become a guide offering an opportunity for change. The tiny details won't matter as much.
And just like that writing sales copy becomes, well...a bit nicer.
When it's time to take action, your reader won't be offended or taken by surprise. They'll be ready.
That's where this course will take you.
