One direct marketing expert goes so far as to credit the headline with 100% of the success or failure of any ad or sales letter, because if the headline fails to pull the reader into the main body of the ad or sales copy, then there is no chance of success!
And they are both right! If your headline fails to perform its' function of getting the reader to read further into your copy, then the headline is fully responsible for the failure of the ad or sales letter.
However, if the headline is successful, then other sales copy factors come into play, such as the benefits presented, the guarantee, the offer, the close, etc. Now they all share in the effectiveness of the sales copy as well. But if the headline fails, they then play no part.
Think about how you read a newspaper or magazine. Do you start with the first article and then read every word from front to back of the publication?
Of course not!
Instead, you quickly scan the headlines, looking for something that interests you, either because of curiosity or because there might be something in it for you. You skip over all the rest!
Well, guess what. That's the same way your readers view your ad, article, sales letter, or sales page.
So, here are the three main reasons for headline failure.
1. You Fail To Grab Your Reader's Attention!
Your headline serves as the ad for your ad, article, or sales letter. Its' mission is to grab the reader's attention, stop them dead in their tracks and get them to want to read further down into the article. If your headline fails in its' purpose, then the whole ad, article, or sales letter will fail because they will never get read!

The old adage goes: no one likes change. But I believe that people enjoy change; they just don’t know how to change without disrupting their status quo.That doesn’t need to be the case. Change can be easy, with little drama or trauma. We just need to know how.REASONS WHY CHANGE IS DIFFICULTWhy does change appear to be so difficult? Because our status quo seems set in concrete and we don’t know how to go about making changes
2. You Fail To Tell The Reader What Is In It For Them To Continue Reading!
Where possible, your headline should present your strongest benefit to the reader. If the reader can identify a want they have with finding a solution to that want in your ad, article, or sales letter, then they will continue reading. If they don't see any benefit to reading on, they won't. Remember, it is all about what is in it for them, the reader.
3. You Fail To Connect With The Reader!
If your headline is not addressed to the reader, they will not be interested in what you have to say in the rest of your ad, article, or sales letter. There must be a match between the message and the target audience, of which the reader is a member.
So, in summary, if your headline doesn't stop your reader dead in their tracks and get them to read further into your copy, then all is for naught!
The time it takes a reader to scan most headlines and decide whether or not to stop and read your copy or move on is less than 3 seconds!
As a result, many professional copywriters spend as much time creating their headlines as they do for the rest of their copy.
Creating 100 or so headlines before picking the headline which the writer feels is most likely to succeed is not uncommon.
Alternative headlines can often be used as subheadlines in long copy. These subheadlines help pull the reader further along into the copy and towards the ultimate goal of a sale.
Be sure to give your headlines the time and effort they deserve and they will reward you with sizable sales.
