  16. Headline • The headline "hooks" the reader into reading more. Therefore, it should • attract attention • characterize the product-specific benefit. • It makes the consumer associate the product with an idea (i.e., a particular function, design or taste). • It has to be eye-catching and designed with: • short sentences • scripts with bold and coloured letters. • puns and/or any other linguistic deviances

  17. Subhead(s) Subheads: • break down the ad copy into easily digestible segments. • capture the attention of those who quickly scan the copy to see if they're interested.

  18. Body copy • It has the task of raising confidence in the advertised product which is here introduced. • Therefore, its language has to be precise, factual and explanatory as it: • shows or demonstrates the benefits of the product • makes claims and proves those claims with facts and figures • uses testimonials and success stories • reports recently researches about the product • compares its product • presents what makes that particular product or service unique (USP, Unique Selling Proposition) • states the offer in no unspecific terms
