Headline Template Series- Part 1
"When you have written your headline, you have spent eighty cents out of your dollar."
David Ogilvy
Imagine you have opened a brand new shop, filled it up with the best of the products from around the world, but did not keep a door. There will be no visitors.
Not having a great headline is like having that shop-
There will be no readers.
When I started my writing career, I did not give much emphasis to the headline. Result- some of my good stories tanked.
Whereas with a great headline, my average stories performed great.
That was when I turned my attention toward writing well-formed and engaging headlines.
This is the first of a series of wonderful headlines.
HOW TO USE THE TEMPLATE:
It's extremely simple.
There are 17 templates. I have already framed them and have left some blanks (with suggestions) for you to fill. Just fill and you have your own headline. That's all!
For example:
[N] Things You Can Do To Make [something] Go From Vanilla Flavour To Ginger Pineapple; And Everyone Wants a Bite!
Becomes
5 Things You Can Do To Make Your Story Go From Vanilla Flavor To Ginger Pineapple; And Everyone Wants a Bite!
See?
I am sure you will see wonderful results with these headlines. Do let me know about it.
