The copy isn’t creating impact. ‘ ‘Can we get a bit more creative?’ ‘Copy doesn’t sound fun!’ ‘How do we make the copy stand out?’
Do these lines ring a bell? If you’re a seasoned marketer or copywriter, I’m sure you must’ve heard this feedback at least once in your career! And that got you wondering how I can make my creative copywriting stand out in the crowded digital jungle.
The answer is: GET YOUR QUIRK ON as we’re about to dive headfirst into the realm of quirky copywriting! 🎉
But first, let’s understand what exactly we mean by QUIRKY and what its ‘Groovy’ importance is in today’s day and age.
You see, in a world where digital noise competes for attention like a loud family dinner, being quirky is your brand’s secret weapon. It’s not about being weird for the sake of it; it’s about being memorable and unique. Quirky copy turns your brand into the standout character in a blockbuster movie. 🍿🎬
It makes a wilting houseplant turn into an Instagram-worthy succulent. 🌱 It makes your creative copy dazzle like a star of the show. 🌟 It isn’t just a fashion statement; it’s an entire wardrobe upgrade your brand needs. 🕺👠 It makes your brand turn into a charismatic conversationalist at the party.
Yep! Creative copywriting does that and more!
It’s the kind of copy that makes people stop mid-scroll, chuckle, and think, “Wow, this brand gets me!” Like a passport to the heart of your audience, creating connections that last a lifetime.
Quirky copywriting is like that DJ of the digital world that gets you engaged and grooving. People don’t just read it; they become part of the conversation. It’s like having a digital campfire—everyone gathers around to share stories and marshmallows. 🔥🏕️
So, if you’re ready to let your brand’s hair down and have some fun, quirky copywriting is your new best friend. 🎉💃
Now, to a million-dollar question! How can one infuse Maximum Quirkiness into their creative copywriting?
Here you go!
Step 1 – Know Your Audience’s Lingo
Want to be the cool kid in the digital playground? Start by speaking your audience’s language. Understanding your audience is like having a superpower. You can predict their needs, desires, and even the words they use.
It’s like having your copy join a club where the only rule is you don’t talk about the… Geddit? 🤐🕶️
Dive into the world of memes, trending phrases, and internet slang. But, and this is crucial, DON’T FORCE IT. Let the quirk flow naturally. Authenticity is your sidekick in this adventure. 🦸♂️💬
Example
Before: Our new tech gadget is impressive.
After (with a quirk): Our latest tech marvel is turning heads in the digital jungle! 🌿💥
Step 2 – Embrace Wordplay
Remember when words used to be boring? Well, not anymore! With wordplay, you can turn your copy into a linguistic carnival. 🎪🎉
Think of your copy as a word playground. Swap out the ordinary for the extraordinary. Use puns, rhymes, and clever twists to keep your readers guessing and grinning. It’s like a never-ending game of word Jenga—how high can you stack the fun before it all comes tumbling down in laughter? 🤹♂️📚
Example
Before: Get a 20% discount on our products.
After (with a quirk): Score a jaw-dropping 20% off and watch your wallet do the happy dance! 💃💰
Step 3 – Be Unexpected
A legend once said, ‘Predictability is the enemy of quirkiness’. You never let your readers know your next move, and Abracadabra, your copy just became unforgettable! 🎩🐇
Throw curveballs at your audience. Start with a mundane statement, and then, BAMM! Hit them with an unexpected twist that leaves them wide-eyed and delighted. It’s like a plot twist in a blockbuster movie, which is your copy. 🍿🎥
Example
Before: Discover our eco-friendly cleaning products.
After (with a quirk): Prepare to have your socks knocked off by our eco-warrior cleaning squad! 🌿🧦
Step 4 – Show, Don’t Tell
Skip the boring product descriptions. Instead, create a Picasso with words and let your readers experience your brand in high definition. 🖼️🍽️
Imagine your product or service as a five-star meal at a fancy restaurant. You don’t just tell your audience about it; you make them savour every bite, sip, and moment. Paint vivid pictures with your words, and let your readers step into the world you’ve created. It’s storytelling at its most scrumptious. 🍽️🎨
Example
Before: Our resort has a stunning beach view.
After (with a quirk): Imagine waking up to a breakfast date with the sun, sea, and seagulls. Welcome to our beachfront paradise! 🌅🏖️
Step 5 – Inject Humor
Humor is the universal language of delight. It’s the one thing that can make even the grumpiest of readers crack a smile.
If laughter is the spice of life, your copy should be as spicy as a jalapeño. Hehe 🌶️😂
Add humor liberally, and infuse your copy with witty one-liners, playful anecdotes, and clever quips. Your readers will thank you with a chorus of laughter. 🤣👏
Example
Before: Our customer support team is available 24/7.
After (with a quirk): Our customer support team never sleeps, but they do enjoy the occasional midnight dance-off with tech gremlins! 🕺🌙
Now that you’ve dipped your toes into the wild and whimsical world of creative copywriting, there’s no turning back. Get your brand on the fast track to becoming the life of the digital fiesta! 🎊🎉
But remember, if you ever need a helping hand, a sprinkle of creativity, or a dash of quirk, BigTrunk is here to turn your copy into the belle of the ball. Together, we’ll keep the quirk alive and kicking in the digital universe! 🚀✨
