Introduction

The product description should always have the ability to attract people to buy your products, no matter how much you invest for advertising, you, as an entrepreneur, should understand the power of having an enticing product description and a nice catalog for your customers to browse through.

7 Simple Recommendations for writing an attracting product description:

1. Write product description with the ideal buyer in mind: Consider the type of buyer for each item and imagine what kind of questions they might have about the product.
2. Emphasize the benefits the buyers will get if they decide on buying the product.
3. Avoid selling the product with generic terms like excellent, great or beautiful, instead, focus on describing the product with listing its main features.
4. Refrain from using superlatives like “the best” or “the most advanced” unless you can prove that this product truly is the best
5. Appeal to the reader’s imagination by telling a story of how this item will improve their lives.
6. Use sensory words like, smooth, velvety, crunchy, warm and bright.
7. The description must be scannable by the reader for example: Use headlines, use bullet points

People find texts and paragraph easier to read when they’re in bullet points and section, writing a bulk paragraph will bore the readers and make them less likely to learn about your content.
