We sell something everyday. Asking someone to go to a movie, offering advice to a friend, listing a product on our website. We’re trying to move people to take action and we do this through the messages we send – the text on our website, conversations, videos, etc.
But messages aren’t a one-size-fits all – what makes sense to us may leave someone else confused.
