Writing A Sales Letter: Practice Tips On Making The Pitch

© Mario Churchill

The meat of any sales letter lies in its ability to make readers pull out their wallets and buy a product or service. Making a sales pitch is difficult enough off paper; on paper, it has to be quick, terse, and convincing. A sales pitch has to be brief, but neither too short so that it appears hurried, nor too long so that it becomes less and less believable as the sentences run by. A sales pitch also has to be eager, but neither too eager so that the reader is tired out reading it, nor too staid so that the reader ends up bored to death.

Writing a sales letter pitch is difficult, but you can practice writing it by following these simple tips.

- If you are in the marketing or sales department of a company, writing a sales letter will be inevitable business for you. You might not be assigned the job at once, but this should be no excuse for you not to practice. Do not wait until you are given a sales letter to write. Start practicing, so that when you finally get sales letter writing duties, you are already an expert at the art and craft.

- Buy a good book of style and usage. Writing a sales letter does not merely mean putting together sentences and disregarding grammar, spelling, and punctuation rules. You need to watch your language, and now, more than ever, simply because it is your only weapon in fighting your big sales battles. A poorly-written sales letter can turn off customers faster than a poor product or service. After all, customers will not care about what you sell until they know that you care about them first. If you cannot care for your grammar and writing skills, then why should they buy anything from you? The last thing anyone needs is a careless person, and your customers know that.

- Practice the craft on products or services that you are familiar with. Start practicing writing sales letters on a product or service that you actually like and use. Although this sounds easy, it can actually be difficult. How do you make a product or service sound good without sounding like you are hollering your praises out? How can your favorite shampoo sell without you having to showcase how beautiful your hair has turned out? How can you make your potential customers get that spa treatment of their dreams without you sounding like the spa paid you millions to make the endorsement?

- The best writers are those who can sound interested in something that they do not even remotely like. This can be a good practice exercise for you if you have already sharpened your writing skills for the previous exercise. Pick a product or service that you do not like, and try to endorse it. This can prepare you for the times when you might be assigned to do a sales letter on a product or service that you do not believe in; you can always opt out and tell your boss that you do not want to get in the way of your principles, but this option is one of the biggest no-no's in the sales and marketing world.

- As soon as you know how to get your sales pitch out, it's time to trim it down. The best sales pitches are no more than a few hundred words long. When writing a sales letter, you need to keep your words convincing, but to a minimum. Remember, not all your readers have all the time in the world to listen to what you say. You need to make your little letter worth their while.

Look back at all your previous exercises and count how many words you used in describing a product or service that you liked, or did not like. How many words did you use? Did you use five hundred or two thousand words? Keep exercising: write the same sales pitch over again, with fewer words this time, but with the meat of your pitch still in it. Keep on trimming your pitch until you are left with nothing but the convincing summary of your endorsement.

Writing a sales letter can be difficult if you do not know how to make a sales pitch. As with any other letter, you need to be formal and respectful, but not stiff and boring. You need all your skills as a writer and salesperson, and you need to put them all into practice. So what are you waiting for? Pick up that pen, or get to that keyboard, and start writing a sales
letter!

Watch Your Language! Tips On Writing Sales Letters

© Mario Churchill

Writing sales letters can be more challenging than you think. There are certain formats to be followed, or you can risk tricking your potential customers into thinking that you are a disorganized bully who does not know what he or she is writing about. There is a certain respectful writing style that has to be used: one that is straight to the point and concise without being boring or commonplace. There is also the need creation to be thought of, as you make your potential customers realize that they are in desperate need of something. You also need to make a sales pitch and ultimately move your customers to pull their wallets out and buy your product or service.

There is also the challenge of confining all these to, at most, a sheet and a half of paper. Writing sales letters, in this age of instant messaging and digital communication, is fast becoming an art form. You need to blend in brevity and spunk without sounding like a hyperactive door-to-door salesman; you need to be fresh and new without sounding like a blubbering marketing novice. How can you go about writing sales letters with all these challenges in mind?

The first rule in writing any letter is to obey the Two F rule: format and function. Format dictates that your letter has to be constructed in a certain way. Function demands that your letter has to hit home and serve its purpose. When writing sales letters, therefore, your goal is to sell, and your language must allow you to make the sale.

Here are a few tips that you might want to follow when writing sales letters.

- Never eschew format even if you are writing to someone young or avant-garde. A sales letter will usually begin with the names and addresses of sender and recipient. It will continue with a body, and end with a salutation, along with the signature of the sender. Although this appears confining, the organized nature of the sales letter works both ways: it can allow you to organize your thinking, so that your prose does not smash all over the place as you are torn between selling the product and making customers believe in it. An organized letter also speaks well of you to your prospective customers: you are organized, and you are therefore to be trusted.

- Never leave your grammar, punctuation, and spelling unattended. Always have a good manual of style next to you, and look for online tools that can check your writing. If you have good spelling and punctuation, your recipients can believe that you actually care about your product. If you cannot even take care of simple things such as spelling and punctuation, then can you take care of prospective customers?

If you have good grammar and excellent writings style, you will come off as educated and respectful. An educated person who knows how to speak the language of both the masses and the elite is someone to be respected: earn this respect, and you can get sales.

- Practice your writing! Good writing, whether for short stories, novels, reports, or letters, comes with practice. You can download writing exercises online, or you can go straight to the meat of the matter and practice one of the most difficult parts of the sales letter: making the sales pitch.

Start practicing on writing about products that you like. This will build your mastery of the language in describing what is good about a product. You can then move on to practicing on writing about products that you do not believe in. This will build your mastery of marketing strategies. When you finally find yourself comfortable writing about products and services, then count how many words you used in making your pitch.

A good sales pitch usually stands at about two hundred words or less. Not all your customers have the time to hear about how wonderful a restaurant is, or how a perfume can turn an ordinary date into a romantic one. You have only a few words at your disposal, so practice using them well.

- Always sign your sales letters, or have the sender sign them. If you show a personal touch, you can make it easier for your customers to believe that you care for them and their needs.

These are only a few tips that you might want to follow when writing sales letters. For more tips, consult with your marketing and sales friends and mentors, and ask for their advice regarding tried and tested methods they might use in making good sales letters. Join online marketers' groups or forums to get even more tips on how to make your customers buy your products and services. Writing sales letters can be difficult, but with practice and know-how, you can get the profits you want and need.
