When You Lead the Horse to Water - Make it Drink

Published: Nov 3, 2004

Application

Disprove the old saying, "You can lead a horse to water but, you can't make it drink," by writing ad copy that makes people act.

Most small businesses can't afford fancy graphical ads. To maximize a return on advertising investments your ad copy must convince your target to buy or take a specific action.

This is accomplished by appealing to a person's senses, or by offering a solution to a person's needs, or employing many other such advertising techniques.

After they read your ad, will your prospect just stand there or will they drink?
