#101: The Biggest Mistake With AI Sales Copy (And Why Voice Training Won't Fix It)

from Soulful Sales With Ruth Poundwhite · host SMTK-MUSIC

There's something I've been noticing about marketing copy lately, especially when it's written with AI. And even when AI has been trained really well on our voice. The copy is fine. It's just bland. It's boring. And there's no compelling reason in it to actually buy. So this episode is about how we fix that.Even with a well-trained AI, I've realised that sounding like me isn't the same as knowing what's actually worth saying. AI is brilliant at listing features, but it often misses the emotional connection, the real reason someone would feel excited enough to sign up or buy. In this episode, I'm sharing the simple shifts I make to turn "fine" copy into copy that genuinely connects.Whether you use AI for your writing or prefer to write everything yourself, these ideas will help you create marketing that feels more human, more compelling, and much more likely to inspire action. I'll walk you through the practical filters I use to strengthen every sales page, email, and opt-in page before it goes out into the world.🎧 Tune in to hear:Why voice training isn't enoughFeatures vs compelling reasons to buyFour copy filters that boost conversionsWriting in your buyer's own wordsCreating copy that speaks to skim readers💭 [01:37] "It will probably be costing you sales and you might not even know it."💭 [03:00] "But when you train AI on your voice, you're training it how to write and how it should sound, but you're not trading on what's worth saying."💭 [15:49] "Just remember to always push AI on whether the content and the sales copy is effectively conveying the outcome and the desire and giving people a genuine reason to buy versus just listing boring features."🔗 Links Mentioned:The Aligned AI Lab (price goes up July 21st)The Funnel DiariesStrategic Freebie BuilderThe Soulful Sales Society⭐️ Jul 27: Free Workshop - The Claude Marketing Roadmap for Heart-Led Online Offer CreatorsReach more people & make more sales, with the hours & energy you actually have.I'll share the exact Claude setup that's made me over $15k while running my business on low energy, & where to start.
