“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.

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!

In no way is this a comprehensive list, each life coach will bring something different to the outsourcing table.

What does a life coach outsource?

• Research
• Marketing
• Scheduling
• Ezine maintenance
• Transcription

Can you think of anything else that goes with this list? As a marketing assistant, I constantly ask myself  “what can I bring to my client”?

I’d love to hear what you can add to this list or perhaps, what is your personal view on how to help your life coaching clients.

Contact me, Stephanie, to schedule the best outsourcing package for your needs.

I used to ask this same question, at first it just seemed to be another business task on my weekly to-do list. It was also the one task that got pushed to the bottom of the list every week. It wasn’t until my virtual assistant coach explained the benefits of article marketing to me during one of our coaching sessions.

She said that article marketing is a must-do for any online business that wants to:

1. Increase website traffic
2. Grow their subscriber list
3. Been seen as an expert in your field

Well, I know that I as a business owner, you want all of the above! Don’t you?

If you could use more web traffic, newsletter subscribers and paying clients, then article marketing may be just what you need to do on a consistent basis. If you don’t have the time to submit your articles, please contact me today.

If you are struggling to find the time to write articles, how about recording your articles using audio or video, then have me transcribe them for you?

To Your Success!

Needless to say, if you are NOT using youtube.com and twitter for your business marketing then you are missing out!

Marketing doesn’t cost you anything except time. Either you spend your time marketing your business yourself or you spend money to buy time from a virtual assistant. When you buy time from a virtual assistant, you aren’t purchasing any marketing secrets, you’re purchasing her time to market your business in a professional way. Chances are, your virtual assistant has many marketing ‘miles’ under her belt, which means you’re getting more for your money than doing it yourself.

Marketing helps your business in a few ways:

• Helps the search engines ‘find’ you by the content your submit online, such as articles and press releases. Not to mention your blog posts.
• By regularly submitting ‘virtual’ information (as mentioned above) you become a ‘real’ person to your potential customers
• Can set you up as an expert in your field

Potential customers are spending hours every day searching for your products, but if you don’t actively market your website how will they find you? Perhaps you have a website that is not performing as well as you’d like, maybe the rankings are low.  Marketing is one of the most important business tasks you can perform, so do it well and do it often.

To your success!
