Client feedback: Valentine's Day edition. #copywriting #writing #writingcommunity #copywriter #content #freelance
And we've changed the brief, it's no longer Valentine's... it's Easter.
You didn't use corporate colours. And remember, in our organisation, we don't say "blue", we say "indigoals". Could you try and centre the text maybe? I know it's not accessible to our dyslexic users but the executive team likes it that way in their dashboards. The full stop at the end is a bit harsh too. And in slogans we put it in indigoals so it stands out better.
🤣🤣🤣 this is too good! At least you didn’t get “client feedback” that says… “Something just feels off to me, can you write it again?” 💀💀💀
LinkedIn can you add 😂 as a post reaction?
Roses are radiant Aubergines are purple Sugar, in moderate amounts, is sweeeeet But, not as sweet as *enter brand name* Doesn’t quite have the same ring to it 🤔
🙀 Hey, thank you agency. It's great! I can see you put a lot of thought into this. maybe the "violets are blue" line should be in blue. Are we using the proper pronoun with "you." Shouldn't we have a call to action!?! Let's add our website address while we're at it. Why are you capitalizing the first word on every line? Do you think this is on strategy? Many readers may have hay fever, therefore, this could offend them. This is not a good message for our diabetic customers. Does anyone want to be compared to something like sugar, which can be harmful? But, thank you!
1. "Reverse it" / 2. "Mix it up" / 3. "Find new meanings" And so you are. Sweet as sugar. On a bed of violets and roses. Feeling blue, could use some red. 4. "Fail bigtime" / 5. "Laugh about it" / 6. "Wait for Martin's feedback" / 7. "Try again"
Having worked both sides of the fence the client brief probably said “Don’t use Roses as we don’t sell them in the uk and please avoid reference to sugar as it wont get past copy clearance and the new healthy eating advertising legislation”
this is too real

2yThis seems to have twanged some nerves. In exchange for said twanging, I'd rather like you to go and buy my copywriting book. https://gasp.agency/media/copywriting-is
