You won't have to pay .01 to .25 and up on dollar per address. You already own list !! :-)

Many of my fellow publishers and marketers reading this right now already know this and are focusing all of your efforts to gaining subscribers. But there are some of you who don't realize potential your ezine/newsletter has for making you a living on-line.

If you wish to acquire a respectable reputation as a known marketing, dieting, taxidermy guru then you must publish your own ezine/newsletter.

I know many of us fellow publishers ( including myself ) occasionally have a hard time either finding time or thinking of an interesting topic to send out every week.

This should never stop you from publishing an ezine/newsletter. You can always find someone out there who would love for you to publish an article(s) they have written. In exchange for using there content all you have to do is allow them to post a small ad about themselves or their product, ezine etc. at end or beginning of their article.

Here are a few article directories to help get you started:

http//ezinearticles.com www.articlecentral.com www.aracopy.com www.authorconnection.com www.certificate.net/wwio www.ideamarketers.com

I know there have been times when either I didn't have enough time to write an entire ezine, or just wanted to trade articles with someone else as a promotion for our ezine's.

With thousands of other publishers practically begging you to add their article in your next issue you really have no excuse to not have your own ezine/newsletter.

( After you reach 1000 subscribers you can start to charge for advertising positions or promote your own affilliate programs.

Price per position of ad will vary depending on demand for your ad space and number of your subscribers. )

Once you have this little time saving technique mastered you can start to write a few of your own articles.

After you master writing your own articles you can become publisher submitting your articles to other ezine/newsletters which is most cost efficiant way ( free :-) to promote your website or newsletter to thousands of new prospects.

This is what I would like to see all of my fellow publishers doing.....becoming an article submitter. :-)

You will soon realize publishing your own ezine/newsletter is fun and exciting, not a boring chore.

Wishing you success ( and a larger list :-),

A few would be "women or women's self care," "healthy women," "young women and self care," "mature women's self care," "working women with children self care." Use other words for self care,

Think of benefits your book gives these women. Include those in key words--"regain childhood energy", "reclaim youthful vitality." Submit several key words.

Then visit Web sites to see their layout and whether or not they have a regular ezine that needs tips, excerpts, or stories.

If their site puts up new articles up regularly, your information has a chance to bring you increased product sales.

Step Six.

Write a note to Web master or content person, submitting titles of your articles or stories. You may want to send an article along as a sample of your writing.

It may be a complimentary chapter from your book, or an excerpt that solves a problem for their visitors. Think benefits when you submit.

What can your material do for their site-their visitors? Before you send anything out, after several peer edits, have it professionally edited.

Step Seven.

Place your book and other products on as many publishing sites as possible. One I use is InfoPost.com. Now, authors can be in control of their promotion, with far less effort, and get respect, support and sales they deserve.

When you submit your book to them, whether by print or ebook, they will accept credit cards, fill customer orders, take their commission (far less than a traditional publisher) and send you royalties every few months.

Each publishing Online company has its own contract, so choose non-exclusive one for your biggest benefit.

Multiple sites equal multiple sales. You don't even need your own web site to sell your books!

Step Eight.

Organize your research. Start a file called "Web sites to Link With." If you don't keep track of your promotion contacts, you will not be able to follow up.

Professional people always follow-up. They develop relationships with people they want to do business with. Start a communication sheet for these people either on your computer or in a physical file.

For instance, for publishing sites, list contact person (Web master or content person), their email and web site URL. Include your note to them.

Keep track of what you offer, what they like, what they take. Date your communications.

Not everyone will respond, but with your persistence, many will!

At end of your note, ask that they include a link back to either your site or other publishing sites where your books are offered.

If you are like me, not a technical person, hire a person who can do research for you. Remember, people who visit top sites are looking for free information and entertainment.

They will appreciate your articles, may even pass them on to friends and associates. Many will go to your site or other sites to check out your book--even buy it. Web sites want your information. It seems like a marriage made in cyber heaven.
