Email is almost 40 times better at acquiring new customers than Facebook and Twitter<\/a>. But only if you send the right<\/em> emails, to the right<\/em> people, at the right <\/em>time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are countless ways to write copy that converts, but only one way to do it consistently: by using a framework. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Power of a Copywriting Framework<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before we introduce you to one of our favorite frameworks, let\u2019s unpack why you should use a framework to begin with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Copywriting frameworks provide a structure to organize your ideas while ensuring you don\u2019t mistakenly neglect any key points needed to achieve your goals. They\u2019re simple to use, easy to remember, and most importantly, they drive results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But not all copywriting frameworks are created equal. Some pack more punch than others. Let\u2019s look at why: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neuroscience teaches us purchasing decisions are strongly influenced by emotions, but it doesn\u2019t stop there. The written word (and that includes email) has the power to make neurochemical connections in the brain that inspire brand loyalty\u2026for life.<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The L.O.V.E. email copywriting framework is designed to create emotional connections and build the trust needed to convert your prospects into buyers.  Here\u2019s a breakdown of how it works:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The L.O.V.E. Email Copywriting Framework <\/h1>\n\n\n\n

L is for \u201cLeverage\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the typical sense of the word, leverage means to take something (maybe even the simplest thing) and use it to maximum advantage. Does this principle apply to email copywriting? You bet. You only have one chance to make a great first impression. To do it well:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remind readers why they\u2019re receiving your email in the first place. <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Be mindful of how your reader first learned about your brand. Whether they opted-in to your list in-store, through a lead magnet, or because they made a purchase, make sure your first email reminds them that they asked you to send them something. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Follow-through shows you pay attention and that your brand values integrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Capitalize on your existing authority & build trust. <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

People have a million things on their mind. You have to convince them that out of the many voices competing for their attention, yours<\/em> is the one they can trust. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adam Waytz, an Associate Professor of Management and Organizations at the Kellogg School of Management<\/a>, suggests trust is built when you demonstrate benevolence, integrity, competence and predictability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What does this mean in actual practice? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s start with an example of what not <\/em>to do: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDear Susie,<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My name is John. I am the owner of The Luxury Cars Company. We have sold thousands of cars to people just like you!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This email doesn\u2019t incorporate any of the trust factors we mentioned above. In fact, it may even come across as arrogant and disengenuous. That\u2019s definitely not what we\u2019re going for!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What about this? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDear Susie,<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My name is John and I am the owner of The Luxury Cars Company. We take pride in having helped countless people like yourself find their dream car.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Better. But still not quite hitting the mark. Because there are umpteen other luxury car dealerships that say the same thing. What\u2019s so special about this <\/em>one? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So let\u2019s try this again:  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDear Susie<\/em>, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to studies, 56% of luxury car owners feel happier overall with their lives. That\u2019s why clients of The Luxury Cars Company will be the first to tell you, we don\u2019t sell cars, we sell happiness. We\u2019ve helped over 10,000+ people find happiness behind the wheel since we opened our doors 10 years ago.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While there\u2019s still plenty of room for improvement here, we\u2019re getting a lot closer to the finish line because:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
