I’ve been looking at Direct Response techniques of the healthcare industry—and there are some unbelievable headlines here. Some leave me feeling ethically uneasy, but they definitely build intrigue. The great ones generate millions upon millions of dollars, and there’s a lot to be said for their power.
I don’t love the healthcare industry. As a result, I haven’t done many posts about it. The closest I’ve come is probably Quip Toothbrush. So I looked into a similar product and found Iite.
Iite S1 is billed as The World’s 1st Kid’s Smart Toothbrush. It pairs with a phone via Bluetooth and essentially makes brushing a video game. It’s a cool idea. Plus it tracks data you can share with your dentist.
There’s not a lot of info about iite, but it did well on IndieGoGo. So let’s take what I can find, plop some healthcare style lines on it and see what happens:

Overall: Not bad. There are a few attention-grabbers in the mix. It’s no million-dollar control beater, but it’s a decent effort.
Lessons: In order to really write a great healthcare headline, you’ve got to dive deep into research. There wasn’t a whole lot here to go off here.
- I went back and forth between the brush and the game. It all depends on the medium and the audience as to what would work best
- I like the bug-toothed monkey idea. That’d stop me from scrolling.
- The “food-grade” is an interesting element. Again, I don’t have enough research, but it could be a cool theme to flesh out.
- The language barrier didn’t help. Text was pretty basic
Time: 2 sessions, 1 hour
Almost done!!!!
