You ever read your own website and think…
“Technically this says what I do, but wow—it sounds like it was written by a corporate ghost with no personality.”
You’re not alone. And you’re definitely not boring.
But your copy might be trying way too hard to sound “professional.”
Which, ironically, is the fastest way to lose people’s attention.
Most service providers—especially the seasoned ones—default to safe, watered-down language because they don’t want to sound unqualified.
So instead of clarity, personality, or boldness, they write like:
"Helping businesses grow with innovative, customized solutions."
That sentence could apply to literally anyone.
If you’re not naming what you actually do and who you do it for in plain, confident language… you're missing your moment to connect.
Here’s what gets people to lean in:
- Specificity
- Personality
- A little guts
Let’s flip the switch.
Try these swaps:
❌ “We provide expert digital marketing services.”
✅ “We build websites that do the talking—so you can keep doing the doing.”
❌ “We’re committed to quality and customer satisfaction.”
✅ “If it’s not built to last, we don’t touch it. Simple as that.”
❌ “Schedule a consultation today.”
✅ “Let’s figure out if we’re the right crew for your next big job.”
❌ “We offer customized solutions tailored to your business.”
✅ “Whether you’re scaling up or starting fresh, we’ll make sure your brand actually looks as legit as your work.”
❌ “Contact us to learn more.”
✅ “You bring the skills. We’ll bring the strategy. Let’s make it official.”
It’s not about sounding clever.
It’s about sounding like you, turned all the way up—with a message that hits the right people, right away.
And yes, your copy can still be strategic and smart without sounding like it was AI-generated in a navy-blue blazer.
Mini Mindset Shift:
Your website isn’t just an information hub.
It’s a vibe check.
It’s how potential clients figure out if they trust you—if they see
themselves in your words. And whether they want to give you their money.
That happens when you speak clearly, confidently, and like a real human who gets what they’re going through.
So if your website sounds like it could belong to anyone in your industry—that’s the red flag. It should sound like you and only you.
👇
If your current site is giving “blah blah industry standard” but your business is giving “badass results and built-on-reputation,” we need to align your words with your actual value.
Start by re-reading your homepage out loud.
Does it sound like how you
actually talk?
Does it name
who you help and
what changes for them?
If not, it’s time to shake off the safe zone and bring the bold.
Let’s make your website sound like the expert you already are.
