    Article Writing Tips – Selling Your Writing to Other Marketers

    First of all, let me start off by saying that I am an Internet marketer even though I write for myself. However, many Internet marketers HATE to write. They would rather be left in the middle of the desert with scorpions crawling all over them. Let’s face it, writing is a skill. You know that as well as anybody because you’re an article writer or at least want to be. Point is, Internet marketers are a GREAT target market to write for. Question is, how do you get their attention so that they’ll use YOUR services? This article offers some advice in this area.

    Probably the BEST way to get an Internet marketer’s attention is to write a series of articles on some of the hot topics related to marketing on the Internet. For example, I just wrote a series of articles on the recent FTC regulations, Google’s Sidewiki controversy, the crackdown on affiliates writing less than stellar articles and a number of other subjects that directly affect Internet marketers. But why does this help in getting YOU into their inner circle?

    For starters, it shows that you’re up on current events. If you aren’t tuned into the Internet marketing world, how can you write about it? It’s kind of like me trying to write articles on needle point. I don’t know the first thing about it and would have to do a ton of research just to SOUND intelligent. However, when it comes to Internet marketing, I am very much aware of what’s going on. If you can do this as well, with any niche for that matter, you will have an in with the people who work those niches.

    But more important than just showing you’re up on current events, it shows how well you can express yourself in regard to those events. It’s one thing to have knowledge of a subject but it’s another to be able to effectively write about it. And no, believe it or not, just because you can write doesn’t mean you can write about any subject. There are nuances to each subject that make each one unique. For example, even though I have a great knowledge of rap music because I am a musician, I wouldn’t be able to effectively communicate to that audience if I am trying to write for rappers. I don’t speak their language, even though I do understand the material.

    Ultimately, selling your writing to other marketers comes down to showing that you understand what’s going on in the marketing world and can effectively write about it in a language that other marketers can relate to. If you can do that, trust me, there is a HUGE market for you to write for.

    And it’s getting bigger everyday.

    To YOUR Success,
