\"The<\/a>You know how to help your clients, and now you want to reach more potential clients through your writing online. You may struggle with how to insert facts and refer to scientific studies to back up your experience and share the benefits of working with you. I\u2019ll explain how to do so in this article.<\/strong><\/p>\n

First it\u2019s helpful to understand that writing for your business, or writing web copy, is really about communicating with your core audience in ways they can understand and in a way that grabs them by the heart and gut so that they will take action, usually signing up for a session or a course, or commenting on a post.<\/p>\n

In my work with authors, heart-based entrepreneurs and healers, I have noticed that the biggest stumbling block they have in their writing is confidence. How will you be perceived if you tell the truth as you see it? Will you get the actions you desire? Also, what will happen if you do get the response or action you request? That\u2019s the kind of problem you want to have.\u00a0\":)\"<\/p>\n

In the rest of this post I\u2019ll address what\u2019s important to integrating facts and refering to scientific studies in your online writing, and how to do it, so that you can feel confident when you do so.<\/p>\n

To put in perspective the use of facts, know that stories are actually what we humans respond to, more than raw facts. In fact, the\u00a0New Scientist reported in 2008 in their article<\/a>\u00a0\u201cThe science of fiction\u201d by Keith Oatley, that neuroscientists have shown how reading fiction increases empathy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since that study was released even more studies have been done. Neuroscientists have revealed what storytellers have always known, that humans are hard-wired for story. Lisa Cron underscores this in her book, Wired For Story: The Writer\u2019s Guide to Using Brain Science to Hook Readers from the Very First Sentence<\/em> (Ten Speed Press, 2012). Stories are how we make sense of the world.<\/p>\n

That being said let\u2019s address the purpose of using facts and referring to scientific studies in your writing for your business. One of the main reasons you\u2019d want to use and refer to facts is to show that you\u2019re not the only one who thinks and feels what you do.<\/p>\n

For example, if you are addressing the health concerns of your audience, you may want to state what you know is true, in the context of the study, like I did above:<\/p>\n

\u201cIn fact, the\u00a0New Scientist reported in 2008 in their article<\/a>\u00a0\u201cThe science of fiction\u201d by Keith Oatley, that neuroscientists have shown how reading fiction increases empathy.\u201d<\/p>\n

In this way, you can use the facts to support your statement, or refute it.<\/p>\n

Another reason you may want to use facts or refer to a scientific study is that you want to increase your credibility. In busines, this is often called \u201cthird-party endorsement.\u201d<\/p>\n

For example, Dr. Jeffrey H. Toney writes about the benefits of music to humans on the\u00a0ScienceBlogs.com site: \u201cYour Brain on Music: Pure Joy\u201d<\/a>.\u00a0Essentially he explains what\u2019s happening in the brain to have music make us feel good. After recognizing the experience of joy we all often experience when listening to music, he adds: \u201cCanadian scientists have documented in a study published in Nature Neuroscience that not only listening to music, but the anticipation thereof, can release the neurotransmitter dopamine in the brain.\u201d He cites the study and even quotes from it.<\/p>\n

In your posts, you can do what I just did in the above parapgraphs:<\/h2>\n

1. State your opinion or fact.
\n2. Use an article or study to back it up.
\n3. Quote one to four sentences.
\n4. State your link or citation.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re ready integrate this kind of writing into your copy, your next step is to go for it. Then get feedback on your writing if you\u2019re not sure how what you\u2019ve just written comes across. I also recommend you read lots of blogs by others in your field that you admire to see how other people cite facts and studies. Lastly, double-check your facts to be sure that you communicated them clearly.<\/p>\n

Above all, remember that your writing online (and off) is about communication. When I review my material to be released to my readers (like this post, for example) I re-read my material, often aloud and make sure my facts and opinions are presented in a compelling, interesting, and useful way. I encourage you to do the same.<\/p>\n
