How to Write Your Advertisement
Determine what type of information you intend to sell by mail. (Example: Financial Information.) Then go to the newsstand and buy every magazine carrying ads selling financial information. Write away for their free offers.
Most will run ads inviting you to write in for more "free details." Once you begin to get an influx of material, you carefully file it away to use as a "model" for developing sales material for your own offer. Yes, mail order IS this simple!
