Congratulations! You made it to: Day # 10 of a 10 day series entitled :

“10 Reasons to Market Your Business with Articles”

Outsourcing (delegating) a minimum of 5 hours of article marketing per month can benefit your business.  Perhaps if you have a better understanding behind the “why” you should be marketing your business with articles, then this task will never see the end of your to-do list again.

Day 10:  Recap Your Article Marketing “Why”

In the previous 9 days you’ve learned some very powerful “why’s” of article marketing and how it plays an important role in your business. So let’s recap what you’ve read:

1. You build relationships with potential clients you may not have otherwise met.
2. You use your article marketing to build trust wit h your readers.
3. You become known as the “expert” in your chosen field.
4. You generate publicity.
5. You gain pre-qualified website traffic.
6. You feed your “content hungry” target market.
7. You have the potential to be seen by thousands of people in your target market.
8. Article marketing allows you to pre-sell your products or services.
9. You market your business without having to meet face-to-face.
10. You reap the benefits of continual web traffic for years to come.

My hope was to inform and educate you, the professional business owner, on how powerful article marketing can be for your business. If you market your business on a consistent basis, perhaps as little as 5 hours per month, you should reap the benefits for years to come.

“10 Reasons to Market Your Business with Articles”

Outsourcing (delegating) a minimum of 5 hours of article marketing per month can benefit your business.  Perhaps if you have a better understanding behind the “why” you should be marketing your business with articles, then this task will never see the end of your to-do list again.

Day 9: Free Advertising Space?

Once your article is published by an article directory, it should be seen as a living piece. In other words, once a target client reads what you have to say, that person may copy it into their ezine or on their website for their readers to read, that equals to free advertising!

So basically, once you submit that article, its “out there” for all the world to see..over and over and over again! Take this one step further and let your readers know that they can use your article but they have to leave it “as is” and not change it in anyway (this info can go in your resource box.)

Oh, and if you are contacted by someone that has used one of your articles to educate their market, make sure to thank them! Virtual hand shakes can go far.

Day 8: Pre-Sell Your Services or Products

Article marketing allows you to pre-sell your products or services. You don’t even have to meet face-to-face in order to sell your business. By article marketing on a consistent basis, your message will be read by your potential clients. Those potential clients then follow the link in your resource box, come to your website and hopefully sign-up for your mailing list. Maybe they will also contact you for more information about your product or service and want to place an order. You never know who is going to pick-up your article!

Day 7: I Spy!

Are you and your potential clients playing “I Spy”? Can your next client find you? Perhaps they are googling your field of expertise,  but they can’t find you or your services. Did you know that the more articles you market, the better your search results will be? That could mean, that all of those clients you know that you can help, can’t find you if the search engines can’t find you either. So stop playing “I Spy” and get “found” by your potential clients.

Write that article to educate and inform your next client and win them over!

Day 6: Business Advertising that Works?

Not all advertising comes in the form of banners, flash ads or yellow page inserts. Let’s think outside of the “advertising block” for just a moment. Did you know that article marketing IS a way of advertising? Advertising that is mostly free, except that it costs you time. If you are consistent with your article marketing, your potential clients will start to view you as the expert in your field. They will begin to see you as someone that they can trust.  Now what other type of advertising will show you as a possible expert in your expertise?

Day 5: I Need Leads?

Article marketing can bring you leads of quality that are relevant to your specific business needs. Perhaps a potential JV (joint venture) relationship can be started simply by having the right person read one of your articles. This is another reason why you need to have a specific call-to-action in your “Author Bio Box” (a.k.a. resource box).  Don’t be afraid to send your readers to a different page than your home page. You can invite your reader to visit any page of your website. Be creative!

Day 4: Get Me Exposed!

Once your article is published, it can easily be seen by thousands of people around the globe.  Make sure you include a “call to action” in your author bio area, at the end of each article. This “call to action” should specifically state that you want your potential client to visit your website.

Having your website visited by thousands? Now that’s exposure!

Day 3: Bring Me Traffic!

Another benefit of regular article marketing is the potential it has to increase your website traffic. Having a professional website is important but it doesn’t stop there! You have to get your website seen by the search engines, but most importantly, your potential clients. Once your article is published via an article directory, that reader may decide to place your article in their ezine , blog or website. When your reader places your article in-front of their readers, those readers have the option to visit your website via the information in your Bio.

“10 Reasons to Market Your Business with Articles”

Article marketing can be a time-consuming business task, and if you’re already an over- scheduled women entrepreneur, then article marketing might be at the bottom of your to-do list.  Outsourcing (delegating) a minimum of 5 hours of article marketing per month can benefit your business.  Perhaps if you have a better understanding behind the “why” you should be marketing your business with articles, then this task will never see the end of your to-do list again.

Day 1: Build Your Credibility

Article marketing can boost your credibility, personal and business. Having your articles published to well-known, well-visited article directories can boost your personal and business credibility. Your target market will begin to view you as a “real” person that can help them with their problems. This is how the trust cycle between business owner and client can begin.

No matter what business you own: handmade goods, clothing designer, life coach, virtual assistant or ebay seller, your business can successful reach your target market by marketing with articles.
