Clear > Clever
Having written content and copy for 100+ businesses, here's a big, fat lesson that I've often battled with...
If you have to explain something - the meaning, inside joke, actual joke, or context - it's useless.
Rewrite.
Immediately.
It's hard to do.
I mean... I spent hours writing, editing, tweaking...
Why doesn't this person understand what I'm trying to say?
Are they d*mb?
Well, no. they aren't.
The writing wasn't clear enough.
With your messaging, be it a blog post or a sales page, it pays to be clear than clever.
Clear > clever.
Clear > clever.
Clear > clever.
