Secrets of a Master:
Use the "S" Factor to Boost Readership and Response
Want to boost your response? Add an "s" to the verb in your headline.
Example: In a lecture, direct-marketing consultant Shell Alpert told the story of a marketer selling a home-study course on playing the piano. By adding an "s" to the verb in the headline, it changed from "Put Music in Your Life" to "Puts Music in Your Life" – and substantially increased response.
Why it works: "Put Music in Your Life" makes the reader do the work. "Puts Music in Your Life" implies that the product is doing the work.
