A Guide to Writing Authentic and Powerful Product Descriptions on Your E-Commerce Platforms

What is a product description?

 

A product description is a detailed summary of product features, benefits, and other relevant information designed to inform potential buyers and persuade them to make a purchase. An effective product description should combine factual details and persuasive elements to provide a comprehensive understanding of the product.

 

What customers care most about a product is its features and benefits.

 

Highlight the most important and unique features of the product. This may include size, material, color, weight and any special features.

Explain how the product solves a customer’s problem or improves their life. For example, the office chair’s ergonomic design helps maintain proper posture and allows you to stay focused longer.

Describe your product copy as best you can, focusing on the benefits, not just the features.

 

 

 

Tips for writing product descriptions

 

1. Be clear about your audience

 

Determine who your customers are?

What do they value?

What problems do they need to solve?

Don’t focus on everyone, be clear about which user groups your strengths are reflected in.

 

Adjust your language to use language and tone that resonates with your audience. For example, technical jargon may be appropriate for a tech-savvy audience, but not for the average consumer.

 

 

2. Storytelling

 

Use vivid language to allow customers to carve a mental picture. People can’t touch the goods online, so the power of words is especially important. Detailed and easy-to-understand product information will make customers more patient.

Through your text description to enable customers to evoke sensory experience, so that the product has affinity, really feel the benefits of the product.

 

 

3. Points of use, easy to read

 

Users most of the time will not stay on the text too much time, unless enough to attract them, then you need to do some product page design:

  • Use bulleted lists of important features and benefits
  • Organize the content logically, grouping similar points together
  • Create compelling images
  • Bolding and enlarging highlighted content
  • Leave enough white space

 

 

4. Product Differentiation

 

Users will be overwhelmed by the array of products, how can I make my product stand out.

Picture differentiation: Add icons or scene diagrams to product pictures to better convey product features and usage context.

Quantity differentiation: Offer combinations of products in different quantities, such as multi-piece sets or single-piece sales.

Size differentiation: Design products in different sizes to meet the needs of different users.

Color differentiation: Offer a variety of color options to appeal to different consumer preferences.

Functional differentiation: Add or improve product features to provide a more advanced use experience.

Packaging differentiation: Innovate packaging design to enhance product attractiveness and recognition.

Differentiation on accessories: Offer unique accessories or bundle sales to increase product value.

 

 

5. Increase social recognition

 

98% of buyers will stay on the evaluation page. Real evaluation will increase customer trust, while positive evaluation will influence customers’ purchase decision, especially potential customers.

 

And a portion of buyers will scrutinize the 1-3 star reviews to decide if the product is worth buying. But it doesn’t matter, because there is no such thing as a perfect product, or even a bad review not due to the product, or malicious competition from peers. Rationally accept the criticism, and in time to optimize the product, to ensure that your goods are value for money is the most important.
