My customers need
your services...
so I'm making
it easy for them
to find you!
Almost daily, people call or email me, asking for my advice on
vendors just like you who I
can recommend to help them with their publicity campaigns.
They need publicists, press release writers,
media directories, editors, press release distribution services, CD
duplicators, media trainers, clipping services, help with podcasting,
copywriters, proofreaders, videographers, website developers, media leads,
virtual assistants, and
other products and services that can help them get the job
done.

I
don't do this type of work!
So why
do they first come to me?

Her readers trust her
"A
referral from Joan is pure gold. Because callers trust
Joan, right out of the chute, they trust me, too. I work
hard to deserve Joan’s trust, because her 30,000-plus
readers are serious about getting quality publicity or
they wouldn’t be devouring her newsletter...Her
referrals are sales on a silver platter!

People who call me know I have an international following,
They know that my website and blog have turned into high-traffic
destinations for people looking for advice on any aspect of
publicity and public relations.
Because
they trust me,
each suggestion I make is an implied endorsement.
"If The Publicity Hound tells me which
companies to call," they reason, "then those companies must be good."
The bigger my
following,
the more requests I receive
Most weeks, I spend from three to four hours just trying to match up my
customers with the best vendors.
But as my own business continues to grow, I don't always have the time to
give people the help and attention they need. Often,
I don't have time to gather contact information for at least three
companies, so they can compare services
and prices, then make an intelligent decision on which company will
provide the best value.
That's why I've created...

The Publicity Hound's
Resources List
...with detailed contact information for
vendors, suppliers and service providers--all in one convenient
place.
The list, which is on a page at my
website, and we're updating it almost daily.
You are invited to be on the list. If I'm
unfamiliar with your work, we'll check your references.
I'm working like a
dog
to promote the list
Here are some of the ways I'm getting the list into the hands of the
people who need your products and services:
-
The homepage at
my website includes a "Publicity Resources" navigational
button.
-
The more than
30,000 people who read my ezine, "The Publicity Hound's Tips of
the Week," see the Resources List link in every issue.
-
I promote
the list
frequently at my blog, which has more than 4,500 visitors and
more than 50,000 page views per month.
-
People who call
my office or email me with requests for referrals get the list
for free
-
The link for the
Resources List will be included in all my information
products--including my 50 special reports, more than 40
electronic transcripts and five ebooks. We're in the process of
updating those products now.
-
A link to the
list will be placed at the end of the more than 50
free articles at my website. My website statistics show that
more people come to my
website through the
Free Articles page than from any other page
at the site.
-
A link for the list can
be found on every page at my website.
-
The link is in handouts I
distribute during my speaking engagements
-
I include it in articles I
am writing about how to find publicity vendors. I'm posting the
articles to
various online article directories, so the search engines can
find them.
-
The resource
list will also be available at several social bookmarking sites.
-
The link is on
the thank-you page in my shopping cart. That means every
customer who buys from me sees it.
-
My customers
see it again when they receive the product they have ordered in the
mail because I'm inserting a flyer with the Resource List URL into
every package. We're also creating handy refrigerator magnets
which we'll be inserting into product packages so the URL is
always in front of customers who need help with publicity.
But that's not all...
Here's what else I'm doing
-
I'm a frequent
guest on other people's teleseminars and I'm mentioning it there,
when appropriate.
-
I'll offer the
list as a free bonus when I'm selling other product bundles
-
I mention it, when appropriate, in comments I write at other people's blogs.
-
The link for
the resource list, and my recommendation to use it, will be a
part of autoresponder messages that I send to people who buy my
products.
...and
finally, I'm promoting
the resource list in all 89 lessons in my popular free tutorial called "89 Ways to
Write Powerful Press Releases." More than 5,800 people have
signed up for the course, and I get from 50 to 100 new sign-ups
per week.
Did I miss something?
If so, let me know. I'm open to ideas on
how to promote you.
What
people say about my referrals:
|
A
referral within the first week!
"I
was surprised--and thrilled--to get my first referral
within the first week! Joan's readers trust her
recommendations, and that's reason enough to be
included. This is advertising that makes the phone
ring."

in less than 2 weeks
"I got my first client

She sends
successful people
"The power of Joan
Stewart's Publicity
Hound Resource List isn't the dozens of
people she refers to us each year, but that those
people are the kind that find value in the Yearbook
of Experts and
NewsReleaseWire.com system, and renew. She
sends successful people who take action, and
succeed."

The most action-oriented
media placement-seekers in the world
"Joan Stewart's 20,000+ Publicity Hounds actually read
her weekly email newsletters and it shows. They are the most
action-oriented media placement seekers in the world. Her
referrals to our PR firm bark louder, stay persistent and
empower us to get them better placements. Why? Her hounds
are eager, action-oriented and above all else, simply nice.
(Who doesn't want to work hard for nice people?)"

How you can be

The fee for being included on the list is:
Just
try placing a classified ad in a trade magazine

newsletter at that price

Those

two.
You can be on my list, however, for as long as
you want to be. (I reserve the right to remove people from the list
if my readers or customers complain about the
quality of their
work or level of service.)
Here's the best part. I'll optimize the list so the search engine
spiders can find it, too. That means people who don't even know about the
The Publicity Hound and search for publicity
resources will find the list.
