PersuasionNo. 59

Specificity

Instead of trying to appeal to a mass audience, and failing to interest everyone, focus on the readers who need your specific product. Mention the particular details that make your business stand out. Make your marketing deeply appealing to a very specific group of people who need your thing.

Try this

Replace every vague adjective ("great", "innovative", "leading") with a concrete detail.
