Catching your readers attention!

To catch a reader’s attention, use a terrific headline- Some authors will tell you that the headline is 80% of what makes a reader take notice of your ad. I agree, and often think that it’s closer to 95%. The best way to write headlines is to think of somebody who is very bored skimming through a newspaper. What’s going to attract his attention? Your headline must be so compelling and interesting that the reader thinks, “I’ve got to read this!”

Think you know the Secrets to Great Advertising?

The biggest mistake professionals make when it comes to advertising is thinking that all “advertising” fits in one basket. They may say, “Oh, I tried advertising…it didn’t work for me.” The truth is that there are really two baskets of advertising. There’s the very large basket of bad professional advertising, and the much smaller basket of effective professional advertising.

Tomorrow's ads are today's future!

Back in the mid-1940s, Seagram's advertised its VO Canadian whiskey with a series of extremely manly magazine ads about "Men Who Plan Beyond Tomorrow" -- unspecified futuristic thinkers who liked the fact that Seagram's was patient enough to age VO for six years. Today with our innovation in technology think of what kind of ad revenue you could be making if you run an ad with as much attention as that!

How to make your Ad's stand out from the crowd!

If you want to give your advertising an instant advantage in markets that are rife with competition...then this article will show you how.

Listen to this:

If you look at most of the really hot and competitive markets -- like diet, Internet marketing, make money from home, etc -- there's one thing just about all the ads you'll see have in common.

And that is they all use outrageous promises -- especially in the headline.

In many cases it's almost like a race to see who can have the most inflated promises without getting in trouble with the FTC.

And simple as it sounds...if you want to cut through all the hype and screaming many of these ads contain...simply do the exact opposite of what they do in your ads.

For example, let's say you sell an ebook or report on how to make money on the Internet.

You could do what everyone else does, and try to find more dramatic and colorful ways of expressing the same basic promise like:

How To Use The Internet To Make Huge Gushing Wads Of Cash Flow Like A River Into Your Bank Account...GUARANTEED!


Or, you could go around all the screaming, yelling and multiple exclamation points...and actually tone down your claim.

Like, for example, focusing more on your "mechanism".

The idea here is to go around the competition by taking a completely different approach. Doing so is like having at a new car lot full of beautiful white cars...and sticking a red one in there. Even if it's not as "flashy" as the white ones...it will always be noticed.

And getting noticed -- especially in a hot market -- is usually 90% of the battle.
