Schwab shows us how to • Get attention • Build credibility • Create winning layouts and choose the best ad size • Test ad effectiveness • Convert inquiries to sales • Make special offers that dramatically increase response and sales How to Write a Good Advertisement gets you quickly up to speed with examples of powerful profitable headlines (with explanations of why those headlines work so well), and quick lesson reviews that help you turn what you’ve read into skills you own. Schwab provides us shortcuts without sacrificing long-term understanding. Fifty years after publication this book is still the standard bearer, sought after by a new generation of copy-writers and businesspeople. Read it, apply it, and watch your sales soar.
