1. State what your unique competitive advantage is
2. Create a compelling, attention-grabbing headline
3. Offer an irresistible bargain

5. Make your ad an advertorial—people read news articles 7 times more than advertisements
6. Offer a risk-free guarantee for doing business with you
7. Create a call-to-action that will trigger a response
8. Create a sense of urgency to compel your viewer to act quickly
9. Use a testimonial from a current client
10. Use exciting graphics that correlate with your headline
