Power Word Placement

| Subheadlines | Benefits, simplicity |
| CTAs | Action, value, urgency |
| Email subjects | Curiosity, urgency, personal |
| Body copy | Trust, results, emotion |
Usage Tips
- Don't overuse — 1-2 power words per headline
- Match context — urgency for sales, curiosity for content
- A/B test — what works for one audience may not for another
- Be authentic — false urgency/exclusivity backfires
- Combine strategically — pair urgency with value
