Every day, people are immersed in their own care, business, jobs, so it is not a simple task to attract their attention. The main function of marketing texts – to encourage a person so much, so that he forgot about everything that surrounds him and focused on your offer.
One of the most important aspects of creating marketing text – is its title: the more attractive title is, the higher chances of human interest are.
David Ogilvy – is a founder of several advertising agencies and a successful copywriter says: “On average, the headline is read five times more than a whole text. Most people have been known to read only the headers. It follows that if you have not told about the product in the title, you will probably lose 80% of you money. ”
Header aim is to create intrigue, entice the reader and stimulate to stay until the very end. A text where a reader can walk behind you by little steps, finding in each line something useful and entertaining.
Remember: Do not lie, ever! Deception and over-exaggeration of the title leads to frustration in the text and about its author.
Against the backdrop of the “title” global interest ,the subtitle role fades. But this statement is absolutely not true – it is no less critical. A subtitle is a straight “conductor» of the reader’s attention between the headline and first paragraph. Functions of the subtitle are as follows:
- To explain the title in short.
- To encourage to read the text on.
The structure of the writing selling text is as follows:
- The problem (focus on the issue of the target audience). For example, the question: “Do you want to increase your income?”
- Promise (premises in the center of attention of the audience desires). “Do you want to manage your capital with ease?”
- The proof (for example: due to the method of our investigations, you will learn how to save your money).
