We have learned over the years that being a business owner, you may ask request from your customers. Those are called Calls to Actions aka CTAs. The first line in the blog is a CTA, and we hope you do it for us too. lol Our CTA in writing is a clear and direct message that will elicit the response we are hoping from our customer or audience. A CTA can also be a marketing tool to get the consumer to take in what you may be asking or requesting from them.

CTAs can be conversation starters, attention grabbers, motivational in nature, and etc. There also can be the overuse of CTAs in one setting.
