Here are some simple sentences to help you out\u00a0 from this problem a lot of bloggers are facing every day.<\/p>\n<p><b>1. Use Power Words<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Great calls to action\u00a0are emotional. They don\u2019t waste valuable space with words like, \u201cjust.\u201d They use words like \u201cdream\u201d or \u201cmillion.\u201d How about \u201cBe the first\u201d or \u201cFind Your Million Dollar Idea Today.\u201d All of these provoke some kind of emotion. Looking for some awesome power words? Just ask Google to assist you quickly.<\/p>\n<p><b>2. Put Your CTA in the Right Place<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Just like in real estate environment, the 3 most important words in digital marketing are location, location, location. Tons of research exists to tell you how people read a web page\u2014and some of that research is actually useful. You might think that your call to action should be at the bottom of your page after all of your finely crafted sales copy but some people don\u2019t want to read all the fluff. Some people will simply want to check out the offer without reading. Others may be ready to buy after one paragraph while others may completely miss the call to action\u00a0if it\u2019s only at the bottom of the page. That\u2019s why a few CTAs in various locations on the page may work best. Try them in different places and start with these guidelines:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>RED, Green and Orange buttons tend to convert the best.<\/li>\n<li>Use first-person language. \u201cGet My Free Report\u201d instead of \u201cGet Your Free Report.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>One of your calls to action\u00a0should be above the fold so visitors don\u2019t have to scroll to find it.<\/li>\n<li>One action is enough. Tell your customer what you want them to do. Don\u2019t use the CTA to present choices. You could give them a few choices at checkout, instead.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>3. Keep It Short.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Having the gift of gab may make you a top-notch salesperson in face to face conversations but online, it\u2019s all about getting to the point. The fewer words in your call to action, the better, in most cases. Take this 3 points in good consideration:<\/p>\n<p>1 &#8211; Let XYZ company tell you how much it will cost to remodel your kitchen<\/p>\n<p>2 &#8211; Call today for a free estimate!<\/p>\n<p>3 &#8211; Let us make a person to person appointment !<\/p>\n<p>Which of these two calls to action are most likely to get a response? The first call to action isn\u2019t actually a\u00a0call to action, and it is long and wordy. Plus it focuses on letting the XYZ company do something and that it&#8217;s something that will cost money. The second variation is short, to the point, tells the consumer to place a call, and focuses on the free estimate, not the cost of the work.<\/p>\n<p><b>4. Test The Thing More Then Once<br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a lot of science behind the call to action\u00a0but the science is only a starting point. All the statistics and best practices may not work with your audience so test everything. Try a few different text ideas, button colors, button shapes, locations, web page designs. Test each of these individually. It\u2019s going to take a while to test everything but once you find the winning combination you\u2019re going to see some fantastic results. Even the best marketers in the business test various combinations. If they can\u2019t get it right the first time, either can you. Now get to work and write a Call To Action that will get people flocking to your business!<\/p>\n<p>You are free to share more ideas in the comments&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..Let it flow rich and big.<\/p>\n<a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-32 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox\" data-provider=\"facebook\"
