Tips for creating profitable infomercials

1 - Tell more and sell more: the most successful infomercials embody the basic premise of "the more you tell, the more you sell."

2 - Solve a problem: the bigger the problem your product can solve the higher your return on investment.

3 - Demonstrate the product and describe it in detail: educate, excite, earn trust, and entice.

4 - Create a story around your product in a way that develops a strong emotional tie with viewers.

5 - Create a sense of urgency to buy: use such techniques as quick-response bonuses, two for one, and free gift with purchase.
