Headlines:
Can your headline grab your audience attention by itself?
The job of the headline is to grab the attention of your target audience. if your headline fails on this initial category, then you ought to think of a better headline that you should use. You should use a catchy headline that will stick to your audience’s head.
Your headline must be short and succinct. Ideally, your headline should contain nine words or less but there are exceptions. For example, you can use a headline that has ten words or more if your campaign is text heavy and you want to emphasize the text more than anything else. A strong headline stands apart from the image that you use. It is as effective, if not more effective as the image that you use in your postcards.
Offer a benefit or a promo that your audience can not refuse
One of the things that you can do in order to create an effective headline is to offer something of value right off the bat. You can create materials that have great design and concept yet get barely noticed by people. On the flip side, you can create prints that have a mediocre design and get away with it when you use prints that and headlines that offer different promos and benefits that give customers value for their money.
Another thing that you can do is to add a deadline to your offer so that you can create a sense of urgency on the part of the consumer. This sense of urgency will tilt the scales slightly in your favor.
You can also use white space to add to the appeal of your headline
The use of white space also can add to the appeal of your headline. The effective use of white space in your design will make the over all look of you prints to appear clean, neat and professional. Also, you can separate the headline from other elements of design using white space. Putting emphasis on the headline is also easier to do when you have plenty of white space on the design.
The body can help your headline
An effective and informative body is essential if you want to use headlines as teasers. The copy immediately following the teaser headline must be well written so that you will not lose the interest of your audience. a well written copy must contain all the necessary information about the product and service that you are offering. You must also include your contact information so that your customers can easily contact you for orders or queries about the product that you are selling
