If you’ve ever written a health-related post and thought, “This sounds generic,” you’re not alone. Many wellness professionals worry that their content blends in with the crowd, but the solution isn’t to sound more dramatic or salesy. The key is to infuse your expertise and personality into your writing so it feels engaging, trustworthy, and unmistakably yours. When your content reflects your authentic approach to health, you naturally attract clients who align with your philosophy and are ready to invest their money. (YAY for not resorting to gimmicks or hard selling!!!) Now, let’s check out some ways to convert clients/patients through your writing.
1. Add contrast to your content writing.
Repeat after me: Effective health business content is dynamic.
One solid way to add dynamics to your content is through contrast. Contrast keeps your writing engaging by varying sentence structure, tone, and pacing. It also makes your voice feel more natural and effortless.
Instead of:
“A well-balanced diet supports good health. It’s important to eat nutritious meals every day.”
Write this:
“Some days, eating healthy feels easy. Other days, you just want to eat a bag of chips for dinner. The good news? A balanced diet doesn’t require you to be perfect. It just requires consistency.”
The second version includes sentences of contrasting lengths and styles. Overall, it flows more naturally, feels relatable, and draws the right people in (AKA those who share your perspective on healthy eating).
2. Replace generic phrases with vivid details.
Words like “game-changing,” “amazing,” and “high-quality” are overused and don’t create a connection with potential buyers. Instead, specificity makes your message feel more tangible and personal.
Instead of:
“This supplement boosts energy and supports overall wellness.”
Add specificity with this:
“This supplement helps you wake up refreshed, avoid the afternoon slump, and stay focused…without the caffeine crash!”
When you write with clarity, your audience immediately recognizes how your offer fits into their life. You don’t have to push them toward a sale; they naturally lean in because they see themselves in your message.
3. Make your health business content conversational.
Many people default to a formal tone in their writing because they think it makes them sound more scientifically sound or professional. But stiff, robotic language can create distance between you and your audience. The easiest way to make your writing more engaging? Read it out loud. If it doesn’t sound like something you’d say in conversation, then rewrite it.
Remove this:
“Proper hydration is necessary for optimal bodily function.”
Write this:
“Volume isn’t the only aspect of staying hydrated. Proper hydration is so much more involved than you might think. It affects your energy, digestion, and even your mood.”
When your content feels natural, the right people will feel drawn to you. You’re not trying to win them over; you’re simply expressing your perspective. Those who align with it will recognize your offer as the right choice for them.
By embracing your voice, your message becomes a magnet. The more you trust that your right-fit clients will find you, the less you have to chase them.
