They're loaded with vitamins and minerals, and each serving contains up to 2 g. of fiber to help control your appetite and lower your risk of cancer and heart disease. ----------- >>This Issues Ad Tip<< "Targeting Your Ads For Maximum Results" So you've written a KIller Ad and placed it out on the Net but your response rates are low or *non-existance*. Maybe you haven't considered the Most Important element of effective marketing.. Your Target Audience. Who are you marketing to anyway? To get Maximum results from your Internet Marketing campaign you *must* first determine who you are marketing to before you write the first line of ad copy. The Internet offers a wide variety of people with many different interest. Write your Ads to fit the target market of the people who might be interested in your product. A couple of years ago I decided to market a Web Hosting Service that I was using to host my own Software products Website. I knew that Web Hosting was a product that offered wide appeal. Anyone who wanted to conduct business on the Internet needed a good reliable Web Hosting service. This posed a big problem for me because the market for this type of product was so large. I wanted to *carve out* a slice of this market so that I could concentrate (Target) my marketing effort to this *little* niche. I also wanted to market to people whom I knew something about. This would make it easier for me to develop the Ads and Ad copy to fit this *little* niche market. In order to me to narrow down this huge market I needed to make of list of the different types of people who might be interested in this type of product. As I was doing a *brain dump* for this list it occured to me that one of my favorite *pass-times* was bowling. Since I've been bowling for over 20 years now, I knew a lot about bowlers. And Guess What? Bowler's market on the Net too! I also knew that bowling was one of the largest participation sports in the United States. What a great *niche market* for me! Man, did this make it easy for me to develop the marketing materials for this advertising campaign. Here's Why: 1. I knew how bowlers think. 2. I knew where they *hung* out on the Internet. 3. I knew exactly how to write my ads, Webpage content and Sales letters to spark their interest. 4. I also knew what to offer them for Free to get them to response to my ads. If your Internet Advertising campaign needs a little boost, maybe you should think about creating your own *little* niche market. Narrow it down to the individual person. Try to market to people who you know something about. Once you've completed this most important task, writing effective ads, ad copy, webpage content and sales letters will *flow* from you with ease. ----------- >>Chucks' Ramblings<< Make sure you check out our Killer Ad Articles Archive.

You should notice that we extracted from our marketing profile the *benefits* of this product not the *features*. Features are usually technical in nature. Product features don't really answer the *two* most important questions that you have to answer in order to attract prospects to your product or service. Benefits on the other hand should answer the question of "What's in this for me?". Our goal in this exercise was to *extract* the benefits from this product that would make this product attractive to our target market. This benefits list will be used to develop our marketing campaign materials. Our ads, webpage content and sales letters will be based on this list. Take a look at the benefits list and you will realize that creating ads and ad copy from this list can be done quite easily. You should be able to develop several headlines from each benefit in this list. These headlines can also be used as subheaders for your webpage content as well. A *bulleted* benefits list is also effective in sales letters and webpage content. This benefits list will be your source. This exercise is designed to help you develop the information that you need to promote your product/service on the Net. If you want to be able to write ad headlines, ad copy and webpage content that sells, then the information in this exercise is where you should always start. You should use the information in this series as a template to develop a market profile and benefits list for your product or service. The next step in our marketing campaign is crucial to developing *magnetic* sales materials for your product/service. Keying in on your target market will determine the direction of your marketing campaign. We will discuss how to determine our target market in the next issue, so stay tuned.
