Pattern: 7 Things to Know Before Buying a [Product]

What a Product Guide consists of
- 450 to 800 words
- 5 items by default
- 2 buttons by default
- Key points
- 1
A title with a number and a payoff
“5 things to check before you buy…”. The number and what the reader gets, never “the complete guide”.
- 2
A short opening
Under 50 words: the decision the shopper is facing, in their words.
- 3
The list
Five items by default, three or seven only when the facts support it, never padded. Each is a specific claim, then one to three sentences of mechanism or consequence.
- 4
Product-neutral first
Items one and two are criteria any buyer can use. The product is named from item three, once the reader agrees with the framing.
- 5
A picture beside the item it proves
The list is split around a figure, and the numbering carries on after it.
- 6
The hand-off
A key-points box and the closing button. A short FAQ only if there are two real objections.
What to avoid
Pitching the product in every item. A guide earns trust by teaching first.
