Welcome to another edition of MIBW.
What a crazy week, taxes due, family to deal with, and a
business to maintain.
We all feel stretched in so many different directions we wonder
can we ever come up for air??
This is one of those weeks where I wish I could start all over
again so I don't make the same crazy mistakes.
But that is the beauty of life, to learn from our mistakes so I
won't complain, just be grateful.
That is my tip for the week and I will leave it at that :)
Have a great week everyone. Thanks for reading MIBW and I hope
you enjoy the rest of your week

There are several ways to ensure that your adverts are
responsive let me outline my top ten response boosting
techniques:
1. An attention grabbing headline is crucial. Yes,
headlines are one of the most important elements within
your web pages. The majority of professional copywriters
have been known to spend as much time on headlines as they
do on all other elements of an advert or web page combined.
The purpose of a headline is to grab your targeted
prospect's attention and pull them into your advert or web
page copy.
2. Get inside the mind of your target audience. Don't write
for everyone, write for a real person. When you are writing
your advert address it to one specific individual who is
representative of your target audience.
3. Get your prospect to think in the here and now, build
some urgency into your copy. Where appropriate you can
improve responses by making special limited-time offers
that encourage them to act right now. However, you should
always impose a real deadline; you can really undermine
your credibility with false deadlines.
4. Again, keep your prospect in the here and now and
encourage your them to take action immediately. Yes, make
it unmistakably clear exactly what they should do with
language like "click here right now".
5. It goes without saying that for maximum response you
should constantly test and refine your copy to determine
which alternatives are most successful. Once you have a
proven "control" advert or web page, you should continue
testing in order to increase your responses even more.
6. Collect examples of successful copy. I have a folder on
my computer where I save copies of adverts, headlines and
even complete web pages. When I am writing a new advert or
web page I skim through my file and it helps to get me
thinking about writing my own copy.
7. Include testimonials in your copy, they can be very
effective in overcome your prospects natural resistance.
Always ask permission before using a testimonial and
include as much concrete detail as possible to add weight
to the testimonial
8. Informative, editorial style copy can be significantly
more effective than copy that looks like an advertisement.
Be creative and find ways of formatting your copy in a more
editorial style.
9. KISS - Keep It Short & Simple. Don't use long paragraphs
and sentences; break your copy into smaller paragraphs and
sentences and include only one main thought per sentence.
Don't ramble and don't try to pad out your copy with
unnecessary words.
10. This may seem like a contradiction to number nine.
Always describe your product or service completely. People
are prepared to read long sales letters, as long as they
find them relevant and interesting. But nobody will want to
read boring copy!

How To Instantly Read Your Prospects Mind
by Harnessing The
Power of 5 Magic Words
======================================
""
Copyright © 2004 David Lovelace
Want to dramatically increase your product sales? Are you
frustrated with the lack of response to your ads?
Perhaps you are working harder, instead of smarter when
planning your ad campaign. What's the cure?
A little 'marketing magic' is the answer...
I'm going to show you how to read your prospects mind, without
using ESP, by arranging 14 simple letters into a magical phrase
that is guaranteed to reveal what your prospect is thinking at
this very moment!
Pay close attention, because the magic is unfolding now:
------> What's - in - it - for - me? <-----
You are officially inside the mind of a potential customer!
And guess what...every potential customer is thinking the exact
same thing at this very moment!
Those 5 words should be printed and posted so that you can
remind yourself daily of the key to smarter advertising.
Before you close this edition, make a point to open a Word
document, type in "What's in it for me?" in large letters,
actually print it out and post it next to your computer.
The simplicity of this will surprise you.
Marketing is not quite as complicated as we tend to make it.
But there are some rules. And the first is to realize the
mindset of your target market. To do this, you must do a little
role playing.
Once you get to the 'other side', diving into the marketing
waters, it's hard to return to the 'outside looking in' way of
thinking. It is important not to leave that mindset behind.
Remember the shoes you were wearing before you jumped in the
water.
Think about that for a minute. You are placing ads everywhere
and to your disappointment, you cannot get a hit or a response
to save your life. You ask yourself, "What am I doing wrong?!"
Time to take a step back and review. Make a point to recall the
ads that made you react. What words, phrases, or style of ad
prompted you to act? Write those things down as you recall
them.
Now take a look at the latest crop of classified or sponsor
ads in a newsletter you subscribe to. But this time look with
the 'outside looking in' eyes. And as you read them, ask
yourself the "magic" question: "What's in it for me?"
In other words, ask yourself .. "how can this product or
service benefit me?"
If you see an ad that says, "We're the #1 most popular service
on the internet!", that's not a benefit. The fact that they say
they're number one means nothing to you, nor anyone else. Who
cares?!
However, if the ad went on to tell you that "because we're # 1,
you'll achieve your goals 13 weeks faster than our
competition!" --then that's a benefit! That's "what's in it for
you".
Let me show you a recent scenario regarding an ad I spotted. I
excluded the email address to protect the innocent :-)
Mr. Joe Blow's Ad: [Working Harder]
"Are you interested in improving your financial situation?"
mailto:joeblow@mailservice.com

interest starting today. Send for your no cost report now:
mailto:joeblow@mailservice.com?subject=Send_Report
http://www.wealthlink.com/amazingformula
Which would you respond to?
The original ad is boring, tells you nothing, and will get
passed over like roadkill.
The smarter ad tells you what's in it for you by spelling out
the immediate benefits. Plus it calls you to take action.
With a slight revision and attention to those 5 little words,
Joe will now experience a dramatic increase in his response
rate. And he didn't have to take a single ESP class! :-)
OK, here's where you print something out and post it. You know
what to do.
