What are Power Words that Sell?
Turn prospects into buyers with these 20 power words:

5. All inclusive / Everything Included
Make it clear to your customer that everything is included in your offer. What he needs.
6. Free / Free of Charge
You may take it for granted that, for example, your consultation is free. But is it the same for your customer?
Tell him: "Get free advice now."

10. Never
You can use the word "never" to make it clear to your customer what frustration/loss/harm they will be spared if they buy from you:

- "Buy now and feel the effect immediately".
17. Fast
Those who can't guarantee "immediately" can resort to "quickly":
