Avoid      using too many multi-syllabic words. $50 dollar words don\u2019t bring in the      orders. Use simple, easy to understand words that are loaded with      emotional dynamite.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">3. Insert      metaphors throughout your copy to arouse emotion. Here are a few examples      of metaphors: \u201cBurns cash\u201d, \u201cCrack this nut\u201d, \u201cTake the bull by the      horns.\u201d<!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">4. Load      up your marketing with proven selling words. Here are the 12 most      compelling words in the English language: \u201cYou\u201d, \u201csave\u201d, \u201cmoney\u201d, \u201ceasy\u201d,      \u201cguarantee\u201d, \u201chealth\u201d, \u201cresults\u201d, \u201cnew\u201d, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketingforsuccess.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/copywriting-ideas.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-5163\" title=\"copywriting ideas\" src=\"https:\/\/www.marketingforsuccess.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/copywriting-ideas.jpg\" alt=\"copywriting ideas\" width=\"145\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a>\u201clove\u201d, \u201cdiscovery\u201d, \u201cproven\u201d,      \u201csafety\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">5. Use      shorter, snappier sentences. Persuasive gimmicks are powerless if people      are forced to read verbose run-on sentences.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">6. Discover      the \u201chot words\u201d that appeal to your target market and then pepper them      throughout your marketing. Almost every market has a knee-jerk reaction to      certain words.
