How to Land Advertisers for Your Self Published Magazine

By How to Land Advertisers for Your Self Published Magazine, Magazine Publishing, Magazine Self-Publishing, Magazines, marketing, Self Publishing, Self Publishing a Magazine, Self-Published Magazine

What if you could create low-tech marketing for your business that actually paid for itself or created recurring, passive income?

Selling advertising in your self-published magazine makes this possible.

For example, if you spent $5k to self-publish a digital and print magazine plus build out the subscriber website, social media posts, and all the other bells and whistles, you would only need to sell five full-page ads at $1000 each in order to get the system built!

With only five sales, you would break even, and pocket the remaining advertising revenue as profit every time you publish.

Plus, you’d have a marketing tool that could be used to:

  • build your industry authority
  • generate leads from your website
  • close better deals with prospects
  • sell more to your existing clients
  • stay top of mind with referral partners
  • and more!

But, what would make a business want to advertise in your magazine? What tools do you need in place in order to land sales? Is it possible to land advertisers if your business is brand new?

I answer those questions and more in this week’s video.

How I Use Trello to Gain an Unfair Marketing Advantage

By marketing, Marketing porjects, Project Management, Project management tool, Software, Trello

When I started building my consulting firm and marketing agency team (we work remotely), I knew I needed a tool to help me keep on top of my ever-growing to-do list. It didn’t take long for me to discover Trello.

Trello makes it easy to organize any marketing projects with anyone. Use Trello to visualize and manage your marketing machine and stay on target with due dates and under budget. Create boards for each project you’re working on, then add lists for individual tasks within that project. Now you can organize your marketing tasks just like you organize every other aspect of your life with lists.

Trello is probably one of the best software platforms I ever started using for project management. It’s incredibly user-friendly and flexible, and it syncs across all your devices. I use Trello for all my tasks, personal and professional, at home and in the office.

Trello is a great tool if you want to give your marketing, or any other project for that matter, an advantage. Use it for as many things as you can, integrate it into your marketing program, and stick to the plan. You’ll find it is easy to use and helps you get more done much faster than you could otherwise.

In this week’s video, I pull back the curtain and show you my exact process on Trello including workflows and little hacks I’ve discovered along the way to customize it to fit your needs.
