CTA Copywriting Tips
As a marketer, CTAs are relevant because they encourage your audience to take action on a marketing campaign.
Below are a few examples of the types of CTAs you might use in marketing materials:
Try for free. Nearly every company website has a free trial offer today. Each of them are CTAs of this variety, and they allow people to demo a product before deciding if it's worth the cost to them.
Learn more. Sometimes, all you want is to give your potential customers a little more information so they're prepared to buy something. That's what this CTA is for.
Join us. Do you manage an online community? Is your product built on collaboration between users? You might find yourself placing "join us" CTA somewhere on your website.
What are your favorite phrases to use when pointing to different products or content offers?
I find catchphrase to be an effective CTA. Should be able to communicate the value of clicking the CTA button i.e. To learn more about basic troubleshooting vs. Learn more
For our products we have to seperate our CTA's for customers vs. prospects. Customers have to log in to their portal using Log In to Apply, while Prospects can head straight to our application using Apply Now.
Today, we offer a free trial and live demos. I want to expand that so we'd have: Start free trial Schedule live demo Register for webinar Sign up for monthly newsletter and more 🙂
My favorite is "sign up for emails and get x% off". If it is a website that I like, it will be beneficial to get emails from them so in the future I can be notified when deals come. It is also nice to get x% off your order.
