But you can improve your air quality by making space for plants such as peace lilies,rubber plants and spider plants. Experts say they filter pollutants out of the air and consume airborne toxins. ----------- >>This Issues Ad Tip<< Make a list of the 5 most appealing benefits of your product or service. These should be emotionally appealing to your target market. Here's an example. Let's say you are promoting a manual that teaches you how to triple your investments in the stock market. Your benefits list may look like this: * teaches you how to triple your money * learn how to read stock quotes * best time to sale your investments * where to find the best deals * 250 pages of tips Or your benefits list could look like this: * Turn your $100 bills into $1000 bills within a few months. * Discover how stock quotes can put money in your pockets * How to sell your investments and make big profits * Learn how to find the best deals like the pros * You'll make more money with this book than you've ever imagined Notice how the second list appeals to your reader emotions. Trigger their emotions and you'll force them to response to your ad. So what are Emotions anyway? Well Webster's definition goes something likes this.." Disturb, psychic and physical reaction subjectively experienced as strong feeling and physiologically involving changes that prepare the body for immediate vigorous "Action". Man, that says it all! Now, use the emotionally appealing benefits list and create your ad and ad copy directly from the words used in the list. You've just created an "Ad That Will Pull Like Crazy". If you need a little help putting together those emotional words in your benefits list, then here's a comprehensive list that you can refer to from time to time. This list will help you substitute technical words for emotional words in your ads and advertising materials.

Learn How To Smash Your Competition Like A Runaway Locomotive! Marketing So Easy That my 8 year old Can Do It! Do your ads reap with color, excitement, and just plain mentally wear down your reader? If not, than maybe that's why your advertising needs a little dose of Multimedia Brilliance. Every since the emergence of the WWW (World Wide Web) the Internet has been transformed into multimedia brilliance. Sound, color and video has us all demanding even more. When you logon to the WWW you are bombarded with this multimedia explosion that just tugs at your emotions like magnets. No more black and white thinking. If you are going to succeed then you must begin to design your advertising campaigns to appeal to this new media. Emotions, that the new sheriff in town these days. Learn how to simulate the emotions of your target market and you can force them to buy whatever you are selling! Here are a few tips that will start you in that direction. So what are Emotions anyway? Well Webster's definition goes something likes this.." Disturb, psychic and physical reaction subjectively experienced as strong feeling and physiologically involving changes that prepare the body for immediate vigorous "Action". Man, that says it all! If you are in the business of selling than emotions are your best friend. Stimulate the emotions and you will create an immediate "Vigorous action". Now isn't that just what the doctor ordered. Just like the ad samples at the beginning of this article you must learn how to use words to create a mental picture in the mind of your audience. But first you must be able to create a mental picture in everything that you do as an Internet marketer. Look at your product or service though the eyes of your target market. Now what do you see? What is it that you can say about your product or service that will create a mental picture in the minds of your prospects. Maybe it is time that you take a another look at your web page and classified ads. Inject them with "trigger words" that produces emotional reactions. Use power words and expressions that best represent the mental pictures that will get your point across in the minds of your web site visitors and classified ad readers. Force them to "see" in the minds eye the benefit that your product or service has to offer them. Motivate them with the four great motivators of today, Fear, Guilt, Greed and Exclusivity. Fear is the most potent. Tell them what they will lose out on if they don't buy your product or service. Inject them with failure, not being accepted, being taken advantage of, or missing an opportunity. This approach will certainly trigger their emotions and create an emotional reaction. Then when you've got them down on their knees sulking in their emotions, let them know that you have the answer to their fears! Then all you have to do is lead them to your order page! Hopefully I have triggered a new outlook for you in this article. Stop thinking in black and white. Look at your product or service with new eyes. Use words, expressions, and multimedia effects that will trigger the emotions of your prospect and customers. Remember the definition of emotions and use it to create multimedia brilliance in your advertising campaigns.

Debi Compton ColumbuScene.com ========================================================== Great to see your newsletter! I do have a suggestion which you should take a quick look at before the next issue. The subject is your links. The way you do them now with the <> brackets and the "href=" is just fine for your subscribers at aol; but, I have to copy and paste them to my browser window to go to the suggested location.The links are not hot in my E-Mail window. I usually start the Outlook program to hook up to the web and it automatically downloads my mail. Then I use a link to open the browser and continue reading while the first page loads. Now, if your links are not capable of opening my browser, then I continue reading mail until I get to a link that will do so. I may or may not get back to your newsletter that session; and, as a result, I may not have my browser open when I return to your piece.
