The Rule Of One:

Great copy uses The Rule Of One:

  • One idea

  • One benefit

  • One solution

  • One message

  • One target audience

Let’s walk through a famous copywriting example together: Avis’ No.2 campaign 👇

One idea:

The core idea here is that being number two in the market drives Avis to put extra effort into their service.

One benefit:

The benefit for the customer is superior service.

Avis suggests that because they are not the biggest, they must offer a higher level of care and attention to customers.

One solution:

Avis presents itself as the solution for customers who are tired of the complacency that can come with larger, market-leading companies.

Their "try harder" ethos is positioned as the reason to choose them over the bigger competitor.

One message:

The message is focused and clear: Avis, being number two, works harder for customer satisfaction.

This is a message about effort, attention to detail, and customer care.

One target audience:

This campaign targets travelers who value customer service and attention to detail and may be disillusioned with larger companies' impersonal service.

💥 How to take action: Before starting your next piece of copywriting, clearly define your:

• One idea

• One benefit

• One solution

• One message

• One target audience
