Fluff is for pancakes, not copy

03/01/2022

Need some tips for trimming the fluff?

🥞 Remove clichés and overused words - the word 'exciting' isn't exciting!

🥞 Remove redundant words/tautology (two words next to each other that mean the same thing)

🥞 Lose weak adverbs

🥞 Replace confusing jargon with simple words/phrases

🥞 Change your voice from passive to active (passive voice takes longer for your reader to understand what's happening)

Is your copy more getting out of hand with the level of fluff? Is it one squirt of lemon juice and sugar away from being a pancake?
