Day 9 of how to write great headlines in less than 30 days


How to write great headlines in less than 30 days

99 per cent observation and 1 per cent writing

Day 9:

The #1 secret of writing great headlines, involves a bit of psychology.  Why does a consumer react in a particular way? Understanding that and empathizing with her is the first step towards reaching out to her.

Like I have written in a previous post: study people. Absorb life’s different facets. Record these experiences in a secret chamber of your brain only to have it spat out while writing about an insight of your prospect. It will never fail you. You will always have something new to talk about, something that resonates with your prospect.

Observe life, read books, watch movies that inspire for whatever the reason, not necessarily classics, but them too. 

(Isn’t this a lovely job? I love this profession!)

 Most great ideas are born from humble observations.

Spend 99 per cent of your time observing and 1 per cent giving form and editing what you have observed.


Have you used any psychological handles that you would like to share in the space below? Feel free to share your experiences…

Until the next,

Adieus!
