Scientific advertising review

This book was apparently considered the bible of copywriting.

Well, here would be the lessons i have learnt from hither.

First things first,

The writer mentions that negative adverts are a big NO. 

Secondly, he talks about samples.

So, samples are to be given to public who show interest but the sample of the product/service that you provide is to be provided once certain criteria is met.

3rdly, the adverts you are writing, these should have the ability to receive feedback easily.

Other lessons:

Test campaigns in adverts

Availability of info for the customer

Catchy headlines.

A guarantee that the advertiser is the one taking the risk. (basicallly a minimization of the risk undertaken by the buyer)


Need to do more reading. Cheers. Stay grounded.

Blaire Warren and the seven addictions

Humans are creatures of habits. In fact, the fact that you are here at this point in time of your life is partly due to habits you have formed.  Habits are however malleable.  Anyways, this is basically what I have learnt today.  According to Blake Warren,  People have 7 covert addictions/inclinations: Hidden Addiction #1: People need to feel needed.

Hidden Addiction #3: People need a scapegoat.(raitifcation. Ego preservation.) Hidden Addiction #4: People need to be noticed and feel understood. (Ego stroking again. Also, humans are actually social animals. Empathy is at the heart of what most humans seek in healthy doses from strangers, friends and families.) Hidden Addiction #5: People need to know things others don’t know/things they aren’t sup...

Lessons from Great Leads

Well, the author in this book talks about the importance of leads. first lesson was on: Focusing on one thing only in the copy. He teaches this important concept related to selling. That ranges from: Most aware, product aware, solution aware, problem aware, unaware. Most aware people are the easiest to sell to. They already know quite a bit about ur product. Product aware: They have heard about your product. But just aren't quite ready yet to burn the hard-earned cash. solution aware: knows about the results he wants but not the product/service which provides it. Problem aware: Knows about the wall that he/she is encountering. Unaware: pretty much oblivious of what is happening around.

Lessons from Kyle Milligan: day -3

Are you an aspiring copywriter too? Look no further.  The following post is going to give you pointer on how to write killer copy .  the first chief aspect of killer copy is the headline.  The headline must be eye-catching.  It must satisfy the four U s. They are unique                useful                urgent                 ultraspecific. The headline should essentially grab the reader by the eyeball.  And then we expand upon the headline. Upon expanding on our headlines, the idea is to establish credibility. I mean, if people dont believe the service/product that you are selling then it's entirely pointless. Lastly bribe them to read on and take action.  :)  Other lessons I learnt:  Adverts frequently make use of magic bullets.  They say tha...
