Before you try to offer something, it is important to decide what kind of offer will most effectively achieve your objectives. Are you trying to generate leads, convert customers, build a database, move old product off the shelves, or increase sales? Consider what type of offer will be of most value to your ideal customers – what offer will make them act quickly.

Here are some examples of types of offers for prospective clients: 

Your offer is the foundation of your marketing campaign. Get it right, and everything else will fall into place. Your headline will grab readers, your copy will sing, your ad layout will hardly matter, and you will have customers running to your door. Get it wrong, and even the best looking, best-written campaign will sink like the Titanic. 

A powerful offer is an irresistible offer. It’s an offer that gets your audience frothing at the mouth and clamoring over each other all the way to your door. An offer that makes your readers pick up the phone and open their wallets. Irresistible offers make your potential customers think, “I’d be crazy not to take him up on that,” or “An offer like this doesn’t come around very often.” They instill a sense of emotion, of desire, and ultimately, urgency.
