Headlines are the most important part of your entire sales letter. Think of the last time that you went to the book store and bought a book. Why did you pick it up? What was the first thing you saw when you looked at it?
Chances are pretty good that you picked the book up after reading the title, and then turned the book over and read the back. After deciding the book looked interesting, you decided to purchase it. You pulled out your wallet and spent $8-$18 because of a catchy headline and some good text on the back of the book. You became a “conversion.”
Headlines need to convert people’s interest. The only purpose of a headline is to make the reader read your first sentence. It then takes a good first sentence to make the reader read the second sentence and the third, etc. Getting people to your website is easy – getting them to become a sale, is not.
Try as often as you can to incorporate one of your key benefits into your headline. For example, someone advertising a new air purifier could say:
“Facts You Should Know About How to Instantly Kill 99.9% of Air-Born Bacteria That Will Harm Your Family”
See? You’re taking the benefit, which is, “Kills 99.9% of air born bacteria,” and turning it into a catchy headline.
Also remember:
Words in quotation marks are read and retained 80% more often!
Most copywriters make the mistake of writing the copy first, and then the headline. This is wrong! Never do that. Always write a killer headline first, and then write your killer copy.
