E-Commerce Tips - Ep. #01: Write Compelling Product Descriptions ✍️ When they're shopping online, buyers can't feel, smell, taste, or try out your product. They're putting all their trust in your product photos and written descriptions! So give potential buyers reason to trust you by clearly describing your product features and the resulting benefits they could experience. For example, instead of: "This is a comfortable, high quality t-shirt." Try: "Made with woven cotton and a touch of Lycra, this t-shirt moves with you and offers all day comfort and breathability." (Feature = made with cotton & Lycra Benefit = all day comfort and breathability). #benefitstatement #featuresandbenefits #productdescriptions #ecommercetips #visualizeit #AiMforLocal #KeepGoingKeepGrowing
