Article Marketing CHEAT Sheet - Overcome Writers Block With KILLER Content Type Templates
The GOOD news? Anyone who makes their living creating content for a living has certain cheat sheets, or templates, or idea joggers that help them LEAP out of the lurch of brain freeze, and BACK into the warm and welcoming wellspring of creative inspiration.
:-) I'm going to give you a few of my OWN simple content TYPE cheat cheat idea joggers, in the hope that you can apply them to your OWN niche, or your own marketplace, or your own suite of services or offers that make YOU money.
Ready? Content Type:CONFRONTATION The easiest way, especially if you are passionate about your industry, to create KILLER content is to challenge, or confront a big fish in your industry.
I will often look for tweets, or popular authors, for example..
..
and find things about their ideas that DON'T mesh with my own.
I'll confront them, or their ideas, directly with my content..
...
and once that article goes live on a directory, or on my blog, the traffic starts to come in VIRAL waves of support, or disdain! Content Type:COMPLIMENTARY The polar opposite approach of the above, is finding people, or perspective you AGREE with, or that jive well with your ethos.
Compliment them.
Everyone likes hearing their name mentioned in a positive context, and MUCH like the above, you'll find that the target of your kind words will often LINK to either you, or your article, giving you tidal waves of traffic that build your business..
...
and your brand! Content Type:CONFESSION This works like MAGIC in just about every niche...
and even, in some variation you can see it at play in THIS article.
For example, if I were to confess to suffering from writers block for MOST of my professional career, and simply outline the ways that I've been able to overcome it, it not only gives me an idea for new content, it also creates a bond, a rapport and a commonality with many of the people reading this, who obviously, by virtue of the fact that they're reading this article...
share in this pain! The truth is, having a long list of TYPES of content for any and every situation is a great way to overcome writers block FAST...
and when you've written thousands of articles like I have, and have millions of readers as a result,unfortunately...
writers block is simply NOT an option when you're trying to GROW your business in a BIG way like me!
