This is the most important part of all your classified ads. It's the very first part of your ad that is seen by the public. The reader is scanning all the ads and makes a split decision whether to read your ad. This is ALL based on the value of your headline.

Every word is important here, but nothing is as important as the very first word of your classified headline. The first word or headline needs to be very different from all your competitors ads, this is key. Your headline must shout, "look at me!" (Every letter in the headline should be capitalize) Also, keep it concise and direct it at your specific target market.

2) You Need To Spark Excitement In The Mind Of Your Buyer.

Whatever promise you make can be greatly improved with some credibility. Avoid unspecific generalities like "make tons of money" or "millionaire in only 2 months". What you need to do use factual numbers that you, or one of your clients has attained. For example: "I earned $6,386.44 this month from this awesome home-based program". Real numbers appear more genuine.

You want to take your buyer see all the huge possibilities. This is where the buyer can indulge in a little fantasy by imagining himself enjoying the same benefits. You want your reader to privately wonder, "Can I do this, too?" Make it very appealing, yet realistic.

3) Outline Exactly What You Have To Sell For Your Buyer.

Make the buyer aware of the exact details about your offer. Tell him what he will get and how he can get it. If you're trying to sell a money making program, make that very clear in the right at the start of you ad.

Many people will not even look at the classified when you outline the specifics. But, that's precisely what you want. The people who skip over your ad aren't real buyers for this kind of offer, anyway. Those who do respond are really interested in the product then and are more likely to buy it.

4) Make Your Classified So Enticing That Your Buyer Won't Be Able to Resist!

You want people that are truly interested to respond to your ad. This people are your target market, so your job is to get tons of them to respond to your ad. Every prospective buyer is most interested in what you can do for them.

Make it easy for your buyer to follow through with the sale and to take you up on your offer. The best way to do this is to offer the buyer something free. When you give away something free, you take away the risk factor to the buyer. It's then something they want. And it's FREE.

5) Use The Buyers High Hopes To Your Benefit.

When the buyer responds to your classified ad, he wants to here from you right away. You've created High Hopes in the mind of your buyer. He will impatiently wait for your reply. Don't delay make sure you answer quickly. Take advantage of the buyer's interest right away.

If your ad contains all of these ingredients, you're virtually guaranteed to have a winner for your classified ad.
