Can’t Write Headlines?
Writing powerful headlines that capture attention, draw the reader into your copy, and SELL is tough.
It takes work: trial and error. Brainstorming. Research.
What is this product really about? What is the ONE significant slam-dunk benefit? How do you convey this benefit in a short headline?
I sense you’re getting stressed just thinking about it. Or maybe that’s me projecting onto you because I feel the same way.
Writing headlines is HARD for one reason – there is so much riding on the words you choose, especially when it comes to the headline for your sales copy.
The correct headline can mean six figures in sales, or maybe even seven.
The wrong headline can mean you make Zero. Zilch. Nada.
Next time you’re stuck, remember this trick:
“Can’t?”
Can’t Write Headlines?
Can’t Sleep?
Can’t Find a Job?
Can’t Get a Date?
That’s your headline.
Next is the subheadline, and you might write it with this simple two-line formula:
“Discover the __ (solution, remedy, answer, method, etc.) for __ (benefit 1) and __ (benefit 2)!
“You will __ (Whatever you wrote after “Can’t”) every __ (time period) Guaranteed or it’s FREE!”
Example:
Can’t Convert?

Use this formula on your next sales promotion and see what happens. Or better still, test it against your current control and find out which one brings you more sales.
