A Picture Is Worth 1,000 Words, But Words Are Still Better

Have you ever read a book and then saw the movie? And you see the characters on the "big screen" and you think to yourself...

"That's not how I pictured that character?"

A picture might be worth a 1,000 words, but words are still better.

Because when you write #the right words, you help #create a picture in the audience's head.

And that's their picture...

They created it.

They own it.

... And if any ol' picture is "worth a 1,000 words", then how much is a #picture worth that someone has created themselves?

Check this out...

Here is #Washington Irving describing his character, #Ichabod Crane in the book The Legend of Sleepy Hollow...

"He was tall, but exceedingly lank, with narrow shoulders, long arms and legs, hands that dangled a mile out of his sleeves, feet that might have served for shovels, and his whole frame most loosely hung together. His head was small, and flat at top, with huge ears, large green glassy eyes, and a long snipe nose, so that it looked like a weather-cock perched upon his spindle neck to tell which way the wind blew. To see him striding along the profile of a hill on a windy day, with his clothes bagging and fluttering about him, one might have mistaken him for the genius of famine descending upon the earth, or some scarecrow eloped from a cornfield."

Doesn't that paint an amazing picture of this human being?

Are your words that powerful?

• What if you could use words to paint a picture of your listings?

• What if you could use words to paint a picture of neighborhoods in your city?

• What if you could use words to paint a picture of your services?
