“The cow doesn’t give milk!”
An unfortunate title, at first appearance:
How can a cow not give milk? What do you mean?What nonsense will it be in the next text? It’s a joke, isn’t it?
Many, many questions. Why would anyone write that?
But, the most inspired possible title is the one that totally hooks the reader, proposing him to immediately find his own script, after which the following will unfold. The more questions you ask, the more appealing, the more interesting it will be to take the reader further in the text.
Propose a wrong premise and solve it in a unique, unexpected and surprising way.
In the end, the “wow” effect is created.
Writing an attractive titledepends largely on the coherent construction of the text, and less than the inspiration to the editor.Creative writing, whether it’s copywriting or content writing, has a clear, almost mathematical structure.As I said before, a text needs thorough and dedicated research. No great copywriter delivers texts from inspiration, but from documentation and an accurate understanding of the structure of the text.
In general, the structure of the text is as follows:
- The premise of the text
- The main ideas
- Text development
- Connecting elements
- Unpublished details
- Termination
- Conclusion
The title is the one that triggers and attracts the reader.It is the first step in accepting the idea to read the text.
Depending on the desired effect, it can be:
- Inedited
- Informative
- Descriptive
- Adder
- Argumentative
- Comparative
- Interrogative
How do I write an attractive title?

- Ask a question
- It appeals to the reader’s desire to know more
- Tell us what to do / how to solve it
- It is an immediate source of valuable information

The title can be written in a classic writing formula:
- Who wants more benefits?
- What’s new?
- Where do you find the best….?
- How do you immediately benefit from…?
- When you want to….?

The cow does not give milk
This is the secret of life shared by a farmer to his children. It must be milked.
In order to be able to milk it, it must be fed, watered, taken care of every day. This means waking up early in the morning, going to graze with her, cleaning her barn daily, using the chair and bucket, and making the right moves to get the milk. The same goes for the path you choose for your professional life.
Things are not automatic and free: I WANT, I ASK, I RECEIVE. There are people who think that cows give milk. The things you get are the result of your efforts.
In reality, all the steps you take in school, at every job, will lead you to a bucket full of milk.
Any attempt to shorten the route will lead to less milk. Did you get the milk? Perfect, now you can make sour cream and butter. That is, you can get more value. The premises were built correctly.
The bricks of your career are placed in a solid structure, which no earthquake will permanently destroy.
