Have a Magical Headline
According to Brian William: 'The headline is the most important element in your advertising". This is very true not only in your print advert but in any form of promotional communication that you engage in. Therefore, the opening sentence or paragraph you use in any sales letter, the opening line of your radio or TV adverts should be bold enough to attract attention.
Appealing To Your Readers Self-interest
Every image, headline or opening statement should be appealing to your readers, viewers, or listeners self-interest. It should promise them a desirable, powerful and an appealing benefits, and two of the most valuable word to use are: "Free or New". They both work wonders in the mind of your audience.
Somehow, you can't always use "Free", but you can use "New". Others words that can also be used to capture people minds are: how to, introducing, it's here, just arrived, amazing, an important announcement etc.
Always incorporate in your selling headline, promise. Also make that promise specific, desirable and advantageous to your prospect as much as you can.
Note: that a fantastic headline explains how your viewers, readers, or listeners, live sales customers, can gain something worthwhile. Take time to focus your headline on the benefits and the specific results that your clients or customers will gain.
Lead Your Prospect Through The body
Once you capture your prospects with headline or opening statement, you need to lead your them through your body copy.
Always tell the truth in your advert and in your business life in general, it's important to be absolutely truthful. And do not try to bend the fact, just make the truth irresistible and fascinating. Then you will experience the benefits of customers believing in your products or services.
The Importance Of Risk Reversal
Risk reversal is very crucial in the success of your business. When your prospect or customers look at your advert, consider your products or services, they inevitably think about the potential risks of doing business with you. Your challenge here is not only to eliminate the slightest possible perception of risk in the minds of your customers, but also to take away that risk from the minds of your customer and place it squarely on your shoulders.
Note that, your risk reversal has to be more than simply hitting the Word "Guarantee" in your adverts. It has to be strong, believable and lasting, legitimate. Instead of saying, "Satisfaction Guaranteed", you might say: "No questions ask, 100% money-back -90- day guarantee. You can say; "if our product didn't meet your expectations, we will refund your money with no hassles". With this you have won the attention of your prospects.
