People lose their minds when I tell them I write sales pages that are 50 to 80 pages long. “Who reads all that?” The buyers do. Every word of it. Sometimes twice. Because “nobody reads anymore” isn’t quite true. People don’t read what doesn’t concern them. But when something is about THEIR problem, THEIR money, THEIR health, THEIR business… They’ll read every line, and want more. It works the same way with content, except here, short and long form each have their own job. Short form keeps you in front of people. That’s where you give them one reason to care, over and over. Short form is important because people end up trusting what they keep seeing. But one idea in 280 characters can only take them so far. Long form is where they get to follow how you think, step by step, until they start seeing things differently. Long form is where you shift beliefs, build trust, and convert a stranger into a follower. Can’t do that in a few lines. Use short posts to get people to notice you, so they bother reading the long ones all the way to the end.
