You already know it, words don’t have bones, but they’re strong enough to break bones. That’s why a good copywriter is quintessential for the success of a campaign – not because he can break bones, but because he can put them in the right order. And while everyone can write a good sentence, the science of persuasive writing that will engage your audience and will guide them to perform certain action is another story.
