    Writing Effective Ads For Network Marketing Programs
    Copyright © 2005, Ken Leonard Jr

    One of the most powerful ways to promote your network marketing
    home business is to run ads in targeted ezines and web sites. To
    harness the power, though, your ads must stand out from the rest.
    Using a simple formula, you can create ads for any product or
    business opportunity. Learn to use this method for writing ezine
    and web site ads that "pull" and you can create a steady stream
    of interested prospects to any web site you wish.
    
    Many readers skim through ezines and web sites. Writing ads that
    are different than the others will get the attention of skimmers.
    They will stop in their tracks to read your compelling ad. Once
    your ad is noticed, interested prospects will click through to
    your web page and enter your promotion machine.
    
    The formula for writing effective online and ezine ads is simple
    to use. First you create a list of the product or opportunity
    features. Those features are then converted into a list of
    benefits the user will experience from joining your network
    program or buying your product or service. These benefits will be
    the building blocks of the ads you write. It's as easy as that,
    though many people do not use this formula. Then they wonder why
    their advertising does not attract new signups and customers.
    
    To build a list of features for your home business opportunity,
    start by going to the main website of the program. This would be
    the site where interested prospects are directed from links in
    your ads. Create a list of every feature you see mentioned
    anywhere on this site. Then thoroughly review your member web
    site and program features. Add every feature you get as a member
    to your list. Also review any ebooks, reports or courses included
    with the opportunity and make note of those features in your
    list. Omit any repeated entries and you will have a complete list
    of all the features of your home business opportunity.
    
    To create your list of user benefits, take each entry from the
    list of features and read it. Now ask the question "What's in it
    for me?". The answer will be the first entry on your benefits
    list. Repeat this process for each entry in the features list.
    Most people that see features in an ad will respond with
    something like "So what?". Applying "WIIFM?" to each feature will
    give you the answer to the potential question "So what?".
    
    Strong benefits that solve the user's problem will attract the
    new signups you want, not an ad full of features. Use your
    benefits list as a resource for writing ads for your home
    business opportunity or product. The biggest benefit on your list
    should be used as a headline (or first line of a classified ad).
    This is the one benefit that will solve your prospect's greatest
    problem or want. Doing this will attract the reader's attention
    as they skim over the ezine or website. Use some of the other
    benefits from the list in the body of the ad.
    
    Now that you have used the formula to create an original ad that
    promotes your network marketing program, the testing and tuning
    process begins. Never assume an ad is going to work well for you.
    Many factors can affect the pull of your ad and the quality of
    the prospects clicking through to the program web site.
    
    Always test different headlines and different headline words for
    each ad you run. Use an ad tracker so you can monitor how many
    clicks a particular ad generates. When you find a headline that
    does well, experiment with the rest of the ad copy. Sometimes a
    small change like swapping the order of two lines of copy can
    produce a huge difference in response. If you need an ad tracking
    system for your online and email advertising, an easy to use
    service can be found here: http://www.hypertracker.com
    
    You can use this ad writing formula to create different kinds of
    ads. Write small ads of 2 to 4 lines in length to run in web site
    classified listings and in targeted ezines and newsletters. This
    type of ad is good to use for testing your ads, since classified
    ads are usually pretty cheap.
    
    You can also write ads of 4 to 10 lines to run as top sponsor
    ads. These ads are placed at the top of a web page or ezine
    issue. Top sponsor ads get more response than typical classified
    ads, but with added response comes added cost. "You get what you
    pay for" definitely applies to online and email advertising.
    
    When you are willing to spend even more for a greater response,
    create stand alone "solo ads" of 20 to 60 lines. Solo ads are
    your best bet to grab the readers attention, get a lot more
    clicks and get more signups and sales. Some publications even
    offer "advertorials" for the same price as some solo ads. This is
    an informative (and benefit packed) promotional article of 400 to
    700 words that includes more of a sales pitch than traditional
    articles. Most publishers will not run an article that heavily
    promotes a product or service for free, as they do with standard
    promotional articles. The advantage to using advertorials is that
    you usually get a lot more space for your message compared to a
    typical solo ad.
    
    These are your options for buying ads. You now have a simple
    formula for creating original web site and ezine ads that will
    stand out from the crowd. It is up to you to put it all into
    action. Your first ad writing attempts may not produce the
    results you are looking for, but the more practice you get, the
    faster you will become a pro at writing online and email ads that
    pull like crazy. That means your ads will get a lot of clicks and
    you will get more new signups and sales than you ever would have
    imagined.
