Tip of the Month

Writing a headline for your book’s sales page on your website — or any other type of headline? Give the “Headline Generator” tool a try.

You might have to play around with it to get the results you need. And, even if you don’t get just the right headline, what the software churns out might be a good starting point, giving you something to tweak until it’s just right.

I’ve used this, and the experience has reminded me of the book cover design process: I can’t do it myself, but I know what I like when I see it.
