You know about CTA already or you use it already but you are not getting the intended conversions and that’s quite frustrating, I know. We will give you some tips to further help you.
1. Make use of words that will drive actions
The main reason for CTA is to draw actions, so its imperative to make use of verbs (action words) like; share, click, explore, discover,download, buy etc.
for example: click to know more, buy now, reserve your spot today.
2. Include a bit of urgency to your message
People don’t like to miss out on things, limiting time usually enices users to respond to CTAs. Buy now works better than buy, reserve your spot today shows urgency than reserve.
3. Be consistent
In all things as a business person, consistency matters. Make sure your CTA has a consistent tone, it makes buyers relate with your brand better.
4. Give benefits
As a consumer yourself before making a purchase, you think to yourself, whats in it for me. In your business, you put yourself in the place of your consumer and show them what is in it for them. Make your CTA pass the so what test, if you say buy, I will think why, but if you say buy and smell nice I will know the purpose of buying.
