How to Throw Money Away With Your Headline

Your sales page needs to be good, okay, that's no big deal I suppose....
think again. Your eBook may be the best deal since sliced bread but you won't sell one copy unless your sales page is very good.
What makes a good sales page ? Well, take it one step at a time is good
advice which I can recommend, once you get started the rest should follow.
The Headline then will be at the very top of your page and will either make or break the sales page.
Your Headline is the thing that will make your visitors read on and, hopefully, with the inclusion of sub-headers, bullets, guarantee and (if you can get them) testimonials,
arrive at the order button at the bottom of your sales page.
Headlines are the critical start to any sales page, they need to perform one or all of the following functions.
Grab attention.
Promise to solve a problem.
Ask a question.
Identify a problem.
Consider the following; " Buy Watsons Chocolate Now" "Find Out How to
Improve Your Health and Diet With Watsons Chocolate"
"You Really Can Eat Chocolate and Stay Slim with Watsons"
"Watsons Chocolate Gave Me a Real Boost and Helped Me Prepare Properly"
Remember though that all the above statements need to be "proved" with examples in the next stage of your sales page.
I reeled the Headlines above off the top of my head, in reality when I write a Headline for one of my own products it may take me a week or so to write something I like, I don't touch the sales page until I am happy with the Headline, everything just follows it so no sales page writing can commence until the Headline is written.
I know nothing about chocolate but I could prove any of the above statements with a little research. The point here is that you see the difference between the first Headline and the others.
Many other variables come into play too, use of bold text, highlighted text and the different fonts can all make a substantial difference to your Headline.
For instance THE Headline font of the moment is Impact and very good it is too for this purpose, the name of the font says it all.
Bold text should be used to highlight WORDS which you want to stand out, try not to make the whole Headline bold. If you do want to use bold text all the way through use, underline and a text highlight color too, just pick and choose where you need to put each individual element to make the text stand out for you.
The use of, what I call, action words will also make an impact on your visitors, action words are generally nouns orverbs, a few examples are shown here;
How, Imagine, Improve, Solved, etc.
Of course statements can make this much easier for you.
You can include several action words in a statement and combine them with other action words to grab the attention of your visitors.

See how the action words and sentences are strung together to form a dynamic Headline, you don't have to keep the Headline short either, far better to make a telling dynamic
statement using three or even four lines of text rather then try to squeeze what you want to say into one simple sentence and fail to make an impact.
In fact the recommended length of Headlines is three to four lines.
