HEADLINE - draws attention, incites to reading + well targeted ATTENTION
ask a question1.short, snappy and
2. must affect the reader emotionally, either by making them laugh, making
them angry, making them curious or making them think

used to.

BODY COPY Stimulates interest, explains:
draws attention to the benefits of the product rather than focusing solely on the
features. "what's in it for me?" easy to understand, honest

Position beneath the headline - create
a visual continuity
Subheads : If you have lots of copy, break it up with interesting subheadsThis will make your ad more inviting,
