Whether you're advertising a product on print, radio or
Internet, these 7 secrets will help you write and
successfully advertise your product:
YOUR HEADLINE OR TITLE PROMISES SOMETHING TO
YOUR CONSUMER. Yep, you gotta grab their attention at the
outset -- that is, by way of your headline. Tell me, would you

buy a product after reading this headline: "New Hair Growth
Shampoo Now In The Market!" I don't know about you, but
if it was something like, "50% Hair Growth In 7 Days!" I'd
buy the product and try it out to see if it delivers what it
promised in the headline. It's a more effective headline than
the first because it gives a concrete result in only a short time.
Bald or semi-bald people are more likely to buy the product
when they read the second headline.
Self-Editing Your WritingMuch of what I do at my "day job" involves editing what others have
written. Eliminating typos, repairing damaged grammar, replacing
missing or misused punctuation--I relish editing, in a r .....
A GOOD LEAD FOLLOWS A GOOD HEADLINE. If you've
written a very good headline, chances are you'll be able to
write a good lead based on that. The key here is to support
your headline with facts in your lead as well as elaborate
your headline. Another tip: Don't waste words explaining to
your readers and target consumers what they already know.
Go straight to the point. Zero in on your product and what it
can do for them. Again, taking our example from the hair
growth shampoo, don't waste a paragraph explaining the
causes of baldness. Give them specifics and facts right away
such as how effective your hair growth shampoo is as well
as tests conducted.
BE CONVINCING BY PROVIDING AMPLE AMOUNT OF
INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR PRODUCT. Ask yourself,
"What can I say or write here to convince my readers or
potential customers to actually buy my product'" List things
related to your product and write them in a logical manner.
Remember that grabbing their attention from your headline
and lead is winning half the battle. The next step is for you
to convince them to buy your product once you have their

complete attention.
TREAT YOUR AD COPY LIKE A NOVEL OR A STORY. If
you want sales results, learn how to write and present your
advertisement in a logical manner. Treat it as if you're
writing a short story or a novel: you have an introduction,
you have a conflict, a climax and finally a solution. Make your
readers and potential customers feel like the ad is really for
them. Organize your sales points according to importance:

an internet marketing tool, based on our recent
experiences.

start with the most important and then finish off with the
least.
IF YOU WANT SALES, NEVER WRITE OR PRESENT A
BORING AD. Again, if your ad is interesting, that's the only
reason why your readers or customers are ever going to read
on and finish reading your ad and possibly buy and try out
your product. One effective way for you to "connect" with
your readers/customers is for your ad to speak directly to
them. Tell them a story, appeal to their emotions, their needs,
their desires. If possible, add testimonials from people they
are familiar with; a famous actor or actress perhaps. Never
make the mistake of talking more about your company and
your success more than the product you are trying to sell. Your
target customers are reading your ad because they want to
know about your product and not about you. Don't also ......
