AVOID SHARING “TMI” OR TOO MUCH INFORMATION
Your copy should come across as smart and authentic, that means that it is clear, sincere, and has a purpose. You can ask yourself these questions as you’re reviewing your copy to make sure you’re not sharing TMI: 1. Does it really add value in some way? Consider what people will gain from reading, it doesn’t necessarily have to be something serious, but it does need to have some value 2. Are you really comfortable sharing it? If you don’t want it on the first page of Google then don’t share it.
CHECK YOUR COPY: DOES IT SOUND WEIRD, STIFF, SALESY OR AWKWARD?
Test your copy with the “Bff Test”. Read your copy out loud and if you feel like it’s not something you would naturally say then it probably needs some work. Consider if you read it to your BFF would you feel awkward saying it? If so, it’s time to make some edits!
NOT EVERYONE IS GOING TO BE A FAN
There are going to be people who do not like what you have to say, and that is totally ok! In fact – it’s actually a good thing because it indicates that you have a unique flavor and when you have your own style, it’s only natural that some people will love you and some people will not. The important thing is that you do not get caught up in the opinions of others but follow your own path. People can tell when you’re being authentic and putting on airs so always honour your authenticity.
:: ACTION TO TAKE ::
Why not try out the BFF test Nikki shared on your about page copy to make sure it really sounds and feels like you and your brand?
