Weenket Blog HOW MAKE MONEY BY MAKING YOUR CLASSIFIED ADS WORK (PT2)

Practice reading your message with enthusiasm. Make sure it fits into two minutes, without sounding rushed. Deliver it in an exciting yet realistic way. Your goal is to get the listener "pumped up," so their ready to part with their money, just so they can share in the incredible secrets of your product. Don't mislead them, give them the impression that you're confiding in them. This will work. Now tape your message. Don't worry if you don't sound as polished as a TV announcer. Just speak clearly, and with emotion. Use the third minute of your message tape for ordering details. Give the customer an easy to understand version of your address, for sending an order. Also, give them complete details on your COD shipping, if you choose to do this. Next comes the classified ad. There is a way of wording an ad for this purpose that is clearly better than other ways. Here is a sample which you should be able to adapt to your product. It uses the product described above: "Double your mail order business' profits! Incredible recorded message tells secrets... Call (219) 555-5555 24 hours!" Because you don't have to use up words on an address, you can be wordier in your ad. The ad above, however, is only 15 words, which is the minimum in many publications. It's exciting, though, with "Double...profits," "Incredible," and "secrets" being the action words. "24 hours" will also be a motivating phrase for readers. All this will end up jamming the phone line listed in the ad, so be sure to use a second phone line, and not your main line...you'll never be able to get any other calls! What will happen is that people will call from the ad, and, if your selling message is good, they will order your product. Try placing a 15 word classified ad that will actually sell your product! It can't be done. Yet, by "expanding" your classified ad, you can actually draw sales at a far lower expense than if you had to send out information, or place display ads.The post HOW MAKE MONEY BY MAKING YOUR CLASSIFIED ADS WORK (PT2) appeared first on Weenket Inc.
