October 31st, 2008 by TheMarketingProfessional

Promotion and marketing are key components of growing a home business yet, it’s the one area most people seem to forget about.

Think about this, if you’re not telling people about your business then how do you expect them to find you. One of the best methods of home business marketing is article marketing. That means you need to be online and writing articles about the various aspects of your business.

If you are a network marketer then the sooner you put yourself in front of a targeted audience worldwide the sooner things will start to happen for you. Article marketing as a promotional tool is priceless. In other words, it basically just costs you your time. You write the articles and then use the various promotional vehicles online to get them in front of hungry, targeted prospects.

Don’t worry, if you think you haven’t got the time for writing articles then we are going to give you some great suggestions in this article to get you on your way to creating your own article marketing “gravy train.”

5 Article Marketing Tips

1. Create a steady and consistent schedule. Unless you are producing a consistent stream of content promoting your business then you’ll get haphazard results. We suggest you produce at least ten articles a month for your business.

2. Make a commitment to write on one or two particular days a week. Writing ten articles a month is not a massive task. It’s just over two per week. Make one day a week your writing day. If you produce ten pieces a month then that will give you 120 articles for the year all doing one thing, promoting you and your MLM business. And that’s powerful home business marketing.

3. Set yourself a challenge each time you sit down to write. That is, to create some urgency, give yourself a set amount of time to write the article. For example, if you think you can produce it in 30 minutes then challenge yourself to create it in that time. It’s amazing how efficient your brain becomes when it is given a time and end goal to meet.

4. Create a list of topics ahead of time you’re going to write about. That is, produce a list of keywords around your business. When you’ve done this, then come up with at least two secondary keywords for each main word. Knowing what you’re going to write about ahead of time simply cuts out any chance of wasting time and procrastination.

5. Organize someone to become you’re accountability mentor. This is a great process and will have a big impact on your home business marketing efforts. It works simply by stating your goals for any given day or month to someone and then checking in with them to declare your work. Your accountability partner needs to be someone you don’t like letting down; even someone you fear a little as this can really kick your urgency mode into high gear.

Always to Your Success,
