Effective marketing today blends emotion with information. Target audiences are engaged and connected to brands or products through strategic "storytelling"—in other words, through authentic and compelling narratives. Whether for a company website, a blog, or print magazines, professional copywriters are paid to create this impact. But what techniques make texts effective beyond simple emotional messaging? Through specific tasks and self-written texts, workshop participants will learn fundamental strategies that help persuade both clients and readers. The focus will include topics such as the reader's journey in content marketing, impactful headlines, and the relationship between intercultural competence and psychology.

This workshop is for students who want to present complex academic content to a broader, professionally interested audience, as may be required in their future careers. The goal is for participants to engage with characteristic style elements and their linguistic realization in popular science texts, so they can consciously apply these when writing for a wider academic audience. To achieve this, different scientific text types will be compared with selected popular science texts, in order to highlight the distinctive features and reader impact of the latter. Additionally, students will actively apply the learned stylistic and linguistic elements by adapting their own academic texts into popular science formats and making them available to a readership.
