10 Sizzling Ways To Improve Your Ad Copy

10 Sizzling Ways To Improve Your Ad Copy
Copyright © Glen Walls

1. You could decrease or increase the length of
your ad copy. There is no rule on how long your
ad copy should be unless space is a consideration.
The ad should be long enough to sell your product.

2. You should add some sub headlines on your ad
copy. Sub headlines act just like headlines; they
grab the readers attention and keep the readers
interested as they continue to read your ad.

3. You should ask your reader questions through out
the ad copy. They will answer the questions in their
head as they read your ad copy. The questions you ask
should persuade the reader into buying.

4. You should highlight keywords through out your
ad copy. The keywords should be attractive to
your target audience. You could highlight them with
color, underlines, italics, etc.

5. You should bullet or indent your benefits on your
ad copy. Most people won't read a whole ad copy,
so make your product benefits standout and you
won't lose the sales from all the skimmers.

6. You should change the size of your text on your
ad copy. You want to make your text large enough
so it's not hard to read. You also want your headline
and major points to be larger so they will standout.

7. You should raise or lower the price on your ad
copy. A higher price could increase the perceived
value of your product and a lower price could
lesson your product's value.

8. You should add proof of results on your ad copy.
You should include testimonials, endorsements,
and factual statistics to prove your product's claims.

9. You should add special offers on your ad copy.
It's usually easier to sell the offer than the product.
You should use discounts, free bonuses, volume
sales, etc.

10. You should eliminate the hard-to-understand
jargon on your ad copy. Unless your product calls
for technical words, you want your ad to be read
without people pulling out a dictionary.

The Personal Fulfillment of Self Employment

The Personal Fulfillment of Self Employment
Copyright © Glen Walls

Have you toyed with the idea of self employment? The odds are quite good that you have at least considered it in passing, but perhaps you were not sure if your skills were the kind that would permit you to embark in business for yourself and successfully feed your family.

Additionally, you might have wondered if indeed it would be possible to market a product without having a large marketing department stand behind you, and a second party paying your wages until the marketing campaigns prove themselves to be fruitful. Yet when you see those who have already embarked onto the road of self employment, you notice that while personal fulfillment most certainly ranks quite high in their satisfaction rating, there is also a sense of professional fulfillment.

The reasons are easily understood. Professional fulfillment comes from a job done well. You will have proven to yourself and the world that you can not only take an existing product – for example – and then devise a working marketing strategy, implement it, and follow through with strong sales. If you have previously done something similar for an employer, you will have the added satisfaction of no longer needing the boss to succeed. In a way this very thought will most likely have spurred you on to take greater risks, make bigger gambles, and no longer play it safe – only to be rewarded with success!

Your professional fulfillment begins with the fact that you will have proven to anyone beyond the shadow of a doubt that you are a force to be reckoned with and that you can do a job better than an already established company. Add to this the financial benefits, and your sense of professional success only skyrockets! How many have told you that for a long time you would be operating in the red and perhaps that you would never see a plus instead of a minus in front of your numbers? With your success you will have proven all of them wrong!

As you can see, there is no end to the sense of professional fulfillment that can be garnered simply from being self employed. So go ahead and take another look at that dream that you might have thought was impossible to fulfill and instead dust it off and give it the old college try. Take the time to dot your “i” and cross your “t” and spend countless hours in the office of a certified public accountant that will make sure your tax obligations are met, and that you will not suffer any kind of liability problem. Take the challenge to wave good bye to your boss! You may very well be glad that you did!

What To Avoid When Looking For A Work At Home Business

In the world of working from home, sometimes people choose to take jobs that they find on the internet. There are many job offers that you might be receiving, from many different places or parties. It is very easy to do an internet search and come up with several options for places that claim to have work at home jobs. Some of these are perfectly fine and legit, but some of them should be avoided at all costs for many different reasons.

First of all, you should avoid any job board or market that wants you to pay a large amount of money in order to have access to the jobs. This applies for many different situations, but especially for work at home freelance writers. Most of the places that will ask you to pay for your own job listings are probably not places you want to accept work from. There are many places online where you should be able to search for jobs and to apply for jobs without having to pay for this service. If you find that you cannot find these types of jobs, you should try to look in a different place or try to broaden your search because there are indeed several places which will post jobs that do not require you to pay to search for them.

Another important tip is to make sure that you are avoiding jobs where the person offering you the work only has a free email account, or doesn’t provide you with any company name. You are going to want to be sure to stay away from these jobs, because the possibility that they will be scammers is quite high. You want to look for work from reputable companies that provide you with a contract, or at the very least, company information that you can use to track them down if payment is not made for the job you do. The best thing for you to do is to join some job boards or discussion boards which will help you to see the different job possibilities in your field and where you will be able to share your insight with others.

After you have been doing online work or working from home, you are going to want to develop a portfolio so that you can showcase your work for others. There are many online sites that will help you with this task. This is a huge benefit for you because you can be sure to get many different job offers if you can get yourself some sort of online portfolio so that people can see what you are really all about. Remember that this is one of the good things about working from home, you can market yourself successfully. You can do it. Get started today.

See ya at the TOP!
