Here is what Brian Keith Voiles, a master copywriter, has to say about being specific in your headlines: "Using specifics in a headline make it almost irresistible to your prospect to not continue reading. You need to use exact numbers: hours, minutes, # of days, evenings, dollars, ways, types of something. Specifics always out-pull generalities. They mean more to our prospect, and they create intrigue about what you're going to tell them in your ad or letter. They draw the reader in." Let's take a look at a couple more comparison examples. The first example is targeted toward marketers who want to grow their mailing list. "Over 30 Quick and Easy Ways You Can Grow Your List In One Month or Less... Guaranteed!" "33 Quick and Easy Ways You Can Double Your List In 30 Days, Guaranteed!" Which one attracts you more? The second one I'll bet.

"21 Quick and Easy Ways To Lose 10 Pounds In 25 Days... Guaranteed!" Do you see the difference? Specifics create believability. So, be as specific as possible in your headlines to increase your believability from the very start of your sales letter or ad and draw your readers further into your sales copy.
