clean. elegant. effective. by design.
copywriting
at five+three, we firmly believe that there is a big difference between simply writing copy and writing content.
we write.with - and for - meaning
Sadly, the large majority of copywriting on the internet is just that: copy writing. Copy that is designed (and often written) by the web designers, not by dedicated writers.
Writing for content doesn't mean that the copy has to be long page copy (although it certainly can be) or dense and dull. It doesn't mean that you aren't interested in selling what you are offering.
communication.with heart and soul
What it does mean, we believe, is that you (and your writer) have taken the time to invest something of yourselves in the written word. In a word, passion. Your readers have to believe that you believe in what you are saying. Communicating your message is absolutely essential, and something we take as a given (and certainly not for granted) when we sit down to write your copy.
content is.still king
How you say it is very important, to be sure. But don't let how you are saying it get in the way of (or leave behind) what you are saying.
long copy, short copy. does size matter?
It's entirely up to you, and your message. They both work. The real question is, does the copy serve and deliver your message? If not, the size doesn't really matter, does it?
copywriting.for the web
The internet is a relatively new medium, less than two decades old at the most. Yet look how it has evolved in such a short time. But despite the net's "short attention span" stereotype, good, content-filled writing will still involve your reader, and they will read on to see what you have to say.
So make sure you say it. Yes, you have to grab their attention, but even more importantly, you have to keep it.
copywriting.for print, too
By the way, we also write copy for all kinds of off-web projects (remember them?). Direct mail, marketing campaigns, brochures, display ads, identity ads, lead-generation, email campaigns, magalogs, etc.
Please contact us at info@fiveplusthree.com for more information on any of these services. We'll be happy to help you achieve your goals there, too.
no sound bites.that aren't sound
At five+three8.0, we take your message very seriously. We have dedicated copywriters on staff whose primary goal is to deliver your message in the best manner possible. And with the most impact we can. If that takes a sentence, a paragraph or a full page, then that's what you will get.
