Client Intake Form Insights

Please remove this client intake form insights section before publishing.


Here’s a detailed breakdown of the Client Intake Form, explaining why each section is included, how it benefits the copywriter, and how it helps tailor services to the client’s needs.

1. Business & Brand Overview

Purpose:

  • Understand the client’s business model, goals, and brand identity.
  • Ensure the copy aligns with their vision and resonates with their audience.

Key Insights:

  • Business Name & Website: Helps assess their current branding and messaging.
  • Industry/Niche: Dictates tone (e.g., B2B vs. B2C, formal vs. casual).
  • Business Description: Identifies unique selling points (USPs) for persuasive copy.
  • Business Goals: Guides the copy’s focus (e.g., conversions, engagement, awareness).
  • Ideal Customer Profile (ICP): Ensures messaging speaks directly to their audience’s pain points.
  • Brand Voice: Prevents mismatched tone (e.g., a law firm needing humor vs. professionalism).

Why It Matters:

  • Misaligned copy can confuse customers. This section ensures messaging is on-brand.

2. Project Details

Purpose:

  • Define the scope of work, deliverables, and deadlines.
  • Avoid misunderstandings about expectations.

Key Insights:

  • Type of Copy Needed: Determines the writer’s approach (e.g., SEO blog vs. punchy ad copy).
  • Word Count & SEO Needs: Affects pricing and research time.
  • Turnaround Time: Helps prioritize workload (rush jobs may cost more).
  • Existing Content: Shows if the project is a rewrite (faster) or from scratch (more research).

Why It Matters:

  • A client needing a sales page vs. a blog post requires completely different strategies.

3. Competitors & Inspiration

Purpose:

  • Identify industry trends and gaps in competitors’ messaging.
  • Understand the client’s stylistic preferences.

Key Insights:

  • Top Competitors: Reveals market positioning (e.g., luxury vs. budget-friendly).
  • Likes/Dislikes About Competitors: Helps avoid clichés or weak messaging.
  • Copy Examples They Love: Provides a reference for tone, structure, and style.

Why It Matters:

  • If a client loves Apple’s minimalist copy, they won’t want Wendy’s sassy tweets.

4. Design Preferences (Optional)

Purpose:

  • If design services are offered, this ensures visuals complement the copy.

Key Insights:

  • Design Style & Colors: Affects readability and emotional appeal (e.g., red for urgency).
  • Font Preferences: Influences professionalism (serif vs. sans-serif).

Why It Matters:

  • A mismatch between copy tone and design aesthetic can weaken impact.

5. Budget & Additional Notes

Purpose:

  • Sets clear financial expectations.
  • Captures any special requests.

Key Insights:

  • Budget Range: Helps tailor services
  • Additional Notes: Uncovers hidden needs (e.g., “We need this to go viral”).

Why It Matters:

  • Avoids scope creep by clarifying limitations upfront.

Why This Form Works

Saves Time – No back-and-forth emails for basic info.
Improves Accuracy – Reduces guesswork in messaging.
Enhances Personalization – Copy is tailored to brand voice and goals.
Sets Professional Boundaries – Clear scope, deadlines, and budget.


Mandatory Questions Recommendation

Please remove this mandatory questions recommendation section before publishing.


Here’s a breakdown of the mandatory vs. optional questions in your Copywriting Client Intake Form, ensuring you capture critical details while keeping it user-friendly:

Mandatory Questions (Essential for project scoping & pricing)

  1. Business Name (Who are you?)
  2. Industry/Niche (Context for tone/research)
  3. Brief Business Description (USPs, target audience, key offerings)
  4. Project Type (Website copy, ads, emails, etc.—impacts pricing/approach)
  5. Ideal Customer Profile (Demographics/pain points—ensures targeted messaging)
  6. Brand Voice Preferences (Professional, witty, etc.—avoids revisions)
  7. Project Deadline (Scheduling/rush fees?)
  8. Budget Range (Aligns expectations, filters mismatched clients)

Highly Recommended (Near-Mandatory)

  1. Competitors/Inspiration (Identifies market gaps/style preferences)
  2. Existing Content Links (Avoids duplication, shows current messaging)

Optional Questions (Nice-to-have but skippable)

  • Design preferences (unless offering design services)
  • Font/color specifics (unless branding is unclear)
  • "Additional notes" (open-ended, for extras)

Why This Matters:

  • Mandatory: Ensures you can quote accurately and deliver on-brand copy.
  • Optional: Preforms form fatigue—clients are more likely to complete shorter forms.
