How to Write a Classified Advertisement?
1. Write a Headline: Remember that the first few words of a classified ad must grab the readerâs attention. Your headline should concisely explain what youâre selling and why people should buy it. Consider the productâs benefits and craft an engaging headline.
2. Write your Sales Message: The classified ad content can be written after the headline. The advertisementâs sales pitch convinces readers to buy and engage with the advertisement. It also include offers and advantages.
3. Include a Call to Sction: Every classified advertisement needs a call to action (CTA) to tell consumers how to buy the advertised product or service. Your CTA may be âvisit our websiteâ or âcall us.â Include contact information or your website URL to make it easy for readers to act. Your classified adâs best CTA depends on your audience and goal. For instance, a used car seller may ask readers to call for further information. A corporation may ask readers to visit its website for more information, schedule an appointment, or buy.
4. Revise for Length: Depending on the announcement, letter or word limits may apply. To adhere to the word limit for your classified ad, adjust the headline, sales message, and call-to-action to remove extraneous elements. Obviously, while abbreviating, only use popular terminology that the majority of people, especially those you wish to reach, would understand.
