Market Your Expertise By Writing About It
Few marketing tactics are as focused or cost-effective
as writing articles for the purpose of establishing
your credibility and demonstrating your expertise to
your market. For entrepreneurs, this strategy is particularly
effective, especially over time. Utilizing this technique
in combination with your blog or web site is a sure
means of gaining market recognition and demonstrating
credibility in your area of experience and expertise.
Article writing is a means to give away a bit of your
knowledge and skill in exchange for the opportunity
to offer your prospects additional services. It is a
wonderful win-win for everyone. This article writing
strategy has been utilized and recommended by many top
bloggers and successful entrepreneurs. I must attribute
a majority of my site's growth to writing and distributing
articles in a targeted, focused manner. These articles
have appeared in countless company and web newsletters,
blog posts, web sites and so on, helping to establish
my market credibility.
The methodology is simple: Write about topics of interest
to your market and customers. Include an author tag-line
at the bottom of the article for inclusion of your name,
business, web site, etc... Then, publish these articles
in a variety of highly-targeted publications for maximum
market exposure. Do this on a consistent basis and remain
focused upon your mission. You might be thinking; that
sounds great and I can see the benefit, but I am not
an author nor could I ever afford such a service. Well,
I have good news for you! You can do this.
People are interested in your expertise, not your ability
to create exotic prose. Remember that most of today's
word processors include a dictionary and often a thesaurus
that will highlight any poor grammar or improper grouping
of words. You do not have to be as concerned with the
quality of your work, as the software will aid you to
a great degree. Additionally, you could always have
a colleague review it prior to publication.
The idea is to write from your own experience, centering
upon topics that have widespread interest where you
have applied your knowledge and experience to solve
a problem. This information will be of vital interest
in your market and your articles will be sought out
as a credible source of expertise. These activities
will soon lead to people and potential prospects visiting
your web site and eventually calling upon you to fulfill
their needs!
This strategy will pay huge dividends over time. Once
published to the Internet, your articles will remain
in cyberspace forever, generating new prospects for
you forevermore. Furthermore, your articles will stream
as part of an RSS feed potentially reaching an unlimited
audience! The only cost involved is basically your writing
time and a small monthly fee for targeted article distribution.
Now that is a marketing budget any business can afford!
You cannot afford to ignore this marketing goldmine.
