A powerful ad
A good ad must follow these guidelines in order to reach its maximum potential and yield beyond your expectations:
1. Don't make it look like an ad! The more it resembles the publication itself, the better results you will see. That is why an advertorial-an ad that looks like news or an editorial-is such a powerful device.
2. Make use of a strong headline. This requires a great deal of time and effort. As Hopkins himself stated, he would spend the most time on the headline

6. Include an offer. This is your chance to make them do something! Offer something they cannot resist and which will make them take action? now. If you don't offer anything, you greatly minimize the chances of making the sale.
