Writing Little Classifieds That Pay Off
Big!
by Grady Smith
Right now, I want you
to make a
choice...
Are you going to sit by with mediocre advertising
results,
or are you going to invest a little bit of time to assure
every classified you write has the pulling power of a 350
horse power, money generating, engine?
The reality of ads is most people do NOT use them
effectively. And bottom line, an effective classified ad is
the workhorse of most businesses.
So, are you using these little wonders to your full
advantage?
Can you comfortably invest $100 in ads with the assurance
that you’ll pull in $1,200 or more?
If not, then there’s a world I’m about to open to you.
And
the secrets you’re going to learn have the potential to
literally shatter your belief that you need to spend a lot
and place thousands of classifieds to turn any real profits.
STEP ONE: GRAB THEM WITH YOUR HEADLINE!
Forget about cleverly designed sentences and trying
to wow
readers with your selection and use of words.
Your headline has one job, to draw the reader in to the
rest
of your advertisement.
Any headline you write should make the headline stand out
from the rest, stop the reader dead in their tracks, and
make them curious.
So, what makes people stop and want to learn more about
your
offer?
It targets them directly, and then it proposes a solution
to
a problem.
When writing your headline, you need to ask yourself
those
questions. Do you have your target prospect in mind while
writing the headline, and will it make them want to read
more? And does it offer a solution to a problem that’s
nagging your target prospect?
Once can answer yes to both question, then you’re ready
to
move on to step two.
STEP TWO: DON’T TRY AND CLOSE THE SALE YET!
Never, try to close your offer from a simple
classified ad.
It just doesn’t work that way. Classifieds are short, and
there isn’t enough room for you to list your major selling
points.
Instead, you want to simple introduce the reader to your
offer and communicate the strongest benefits and how it will
help them. Create a little excitement here. Give the reader
only enough to build curiosity so they’re driven to find out
more.
STEP THREE: TELL THEM WHAT TO DO NEXT!
People will follow when you lead. So tell the reader
exactly
what they need to do.
Trying to get information in front of your prospect? Tell
them how they can get it. Want them to sign up for your
newsletter? Show them what they need to do.
By stating in simple terms what to do next, the now
interested reader will follow. And if you’ve followed these
suggestions, you’ll have copy that leads the reader to their
pot of gold every time.
