Today, I taught our new hires the framework I use when I write product descriptions.
It& #39;s not always applicable, but when it is, it converts 269% more comparing the CR of our most applicable products vs. our best-selling non-applicable products.
Here& #39;s the framework:

Here& #39;s the framework:
The "framework" is simple, it& #39;s not new, and it isn& #39;t mine. So I can& #39;t take any credit.
I simply following a thought process going through feature -> benefit of the feature -> benefit of the benefits and write about it.

First, create a list of all the features of your product. Here& #39;s a list from a recent description I wrote for a new lightweight down jacket.
- Down from controlled farms
- Quality zippers from YKK
- 2 inner pockets
- Weighs only 280 g.
- Down from controlled farms
- Quality zippers from YKK
- 2 inner pockets
- Weighs only 280 g.
Now, for each feature on your list, state the benefit of that feature.
Down from controlled farms->The animals have lived in good conditions
Quality zippers from YKK->The zipper doesn& #39;t break
2 inner pockets->Extra, hidden storage
Weights only 280 g.->Light to wear
Down from controlled farms->The animals have lived in good conditions
Quality zippers from YKK->The zipper doesn& #39;t break
2 inner pockets->Extra, hidden storage
Weights only 280 g.->Light to wear
Finally, stating the benefit of the benefit is where the gold is. Why is the benefit even valuable?
The animals have lived in good conditions->You support good animal welfare where animals don& #39;t suffer
The zipper doesn& #39;t break->You don& #39;t have to waste money changing the zipper
The animals have lived in good conditions->You support good animal welfare where animals don& #39;t suffer
The zipper doesn& #39;t break->You don& #39;t have to waste money changing the zipper
Extra, hidden storage->You can feel safe that your valuables are out of sight from pocket thieves
Light to wear -> It& #39;s so comfortable that you almost forget that you are wearing a jacket. Also, it& #39;s easy to transport if you need a spare jacket on a trip.

The framework works best for products with functional features/benefits. But think about it in all your product descriptions.
While it& #39;s not rocket science, it can be very difficult. But I promise that it& #39;s worth spending time on.
Your conversion rate will thank you.
