How To Write A Compelling "Close" So
Your Prospects Start Taking
Action... Right Now!

Dear Friend,

Today is your LAST day to enter!

Enter the headline contest I'm having, and get your shot at winning $100 dollars off your next sales copy review -- www.kingofcopy.com/salescopyreview -- or your next consulting appointment -- www.kingofcopy.com/consulting .

The contest rules are here:

http://www.kingofcopy.com/tips/ad_contest_071505.html

Today we'll take a look at the final paragraph of our contest display ad.

You can check out that original ad, and even print out a copy of it, right here:

http://www.kingofcopy.com/tips/real_estate_ad_071505.html

This final paragraph says,

"For pre-recorded information which will explain more about how you can dramatically alter your real estate career, call 1-800-314-3718 and enter
ID#7004."

This isn't "bad" per se, but as far as "closes" goes, it's pretty weak.

You want your call to action to be as strong as your opening line.

You want to end on an "up" note that's spilling over with energy, so your prospect will pick up on that energy and do whatever it is you're asking them to -- and do it right away.

You want a powerful close, like this:

"To get your copy of a FREE Report describing "The Real Estate Buyers And Sellers Instant And Automatic Attraction System" in detail, grab your telephone
right now and call The Realtors Hotline and listen to this 24-hour toll-FREE recorded message, at 1-XXX-XXX-XXXX ext. XXXX. Call right now, while this is fresh on your mind, and before anything else comes up!  There is no charge for this service and no one will be on the telephone to hassle you either.

P.S. There are only 53 of these FREE Reports available, so if you really want to put an additional $100,000 dollars of commissions into your pockets, call 1-XXX-XXX-XXXX ext. XXXX, and get the facts -- right NOW!"

There are a couple of more things I'd like to discuss with you, about this ad, and we'll go over them during the next few days.

I'll post the winning headline entry on Friday -- remember, contest ends tonight, so get your headline in right NOW!

Now go sell something,

Craig Garber

P.S. When it comes to marketing, why re-invent the wheel when you can get one already spinning faster than the cyclone ride at your local amusement park? Here's how: www.KingOfCopy.com/consulting
