The first step is always difficult, and in the case of a small child who has yet to walk or first start in kindergarten and school, first job .... All these steps are first in our lives. There is always the fear and uncertainty with the big question, if I am to know that I can do it.
When you first meet with a job like this in our SFI is normal to feel fear of the unknown because we have yet to learn something new. Those to whom these affairs are not unknown lakes and quicker to find their way

Learn by observation.

Read text ads written in Marketing aids
Read the banners

Visit classified pages , go to different categories, and read the ads

Before writing , recollect what outcome you expect from ad. For whom you are going to write. Just put your thoughts in a few lines.

Your ad should wording should address the worry/ concern of the reader. Mention how you are going to help them if they take action suggested by you. And call for an action.(

For the first month, its best if you use SFI Marketing Ads, it was very helpful for me. You have couple of ads there, you may chose the one who fits the best to you and your character.

When you writing the add, be very honest with words, write from your heart.

Write simple words, friendly, with dose of humor in it. Imagine that you are reading the add, and will that words make you interested in?

I write ads that attract me.

You must be honest and say exactly what you offer and what that person can expect.
This is a job that requires persistent and diligent people.

Present your attitude to people in advertising is good advertising for me.

You have to know what your target group.
These are the people for whom you write ADVERTISEMENT

It is here that we can get all the knowledge, but also learn from their sponsors, members of his team who may have experienced in advertising. A good ad will yield results that will surely bad.

1. Be Specific - So that you can deliver the right message to your customers
2. Highligh you Unique Value Proposition (UVP) - How different are you from your competitor? What makes your product or service unique? What benefit would the customer get after buying what you sell? If you can answer these questions then hopefully you will get your UVP.

To write effective ads, first you must know what you are advertising, and the target audience. Ads should be brief and to the point. The information should be truthful.
To get ideas on writing ads look at sample ads. SFI has provided its affiliates with a number of ads on our marketing page. Since you want to write your own, use these as guides in formulating your own.
