Get Slightly Famous

Get Thousands of Dollars' Worth of Free Media Exposure in Top National Publications

How many times have you opened a newspaper or magazine and read a story about your industry only to see a competitor quoted instead of you?

You may be good at what you do, but unless you increase your visibility and reach more people, great opportunities are passing you by. You need an edge. You need to become a recognized expert by being quoted in the media.

Getting quoted in magazines, newspapers, radio and television is one of the most powerful marketing strategies available. It positions you as an expert and attracts prospects. And getting quoted in the media that reach your target market is not as hard as you might think.

The Media Leads program from Get The Word Out has been fabulous. In the first month I used the service, I was interviewed and quoted in a Philadelphia newspaper, and had interviews with a major Canadian fashion magazine and a U.S. magazine that has a distribution of over a million.

Steve gave me some simple rules for how to respond to the queries -- and as a result, I've gotten a really high response rate from journalists. I would never have had these opportunities without the media lead program. Who knew that positioning yourself as an expert could be so easy!

"In my first two weeks of working with you, I was interviewed by four publications tailor-made for my expertise. As a result of the interviews, I appeared in an e-mail newsletter sent to 170,000 potential customers in my target market, and a print magazine distributed to 23,000 possible buyers of my book.

"Something else worthy of note is that my book's sales rank on Amazon suddenly leapt up yesterday. It usually hovers around #1500-3000, but yesterday it ranked as high as #675. That's the first time I can recall it's ranked better than #1000. Also, my newsletter subscriptions are fairly high right now. So the impact may indeed be larger!"

Reporters are not experts. The media need you -- the industry expert -- to give substance and credibility to their stories. That's why they rely on outside interview sources to help them substantiate facts and give their stories authenticity.

Pick up any newspaper or magazine and read the articles. You'll find experts quoted about topics ranging from international business and stock market forecasts to the latest fashion trends. These "experts" are people just like you -- the only difference is they made themselves available the moment journalists needed their expertise.

Anyone with knowledge about relevant subjects is a candidate to be interviewed. Experts include authors, speakers, consultants, business owners, managers and professionals. If you have in-depth knowledge about a specific subject -- and that subject can be your business -- you qualify too.

Journalists need someone like you to explain the details of a story to them. The test is how much you know, and if you know a lot about something, and that can be your business, you can leverage your knowledge into a halo of authority.

Journalists need people with experience in every major business and consumer topic, including:

ARTS / ENTERTAINMENT / MEDIA

BEHAVIOR / RELATIONSHIPS

ENERGY / ENVIRONMENT

MANAGEMENT / WORKPLACE

If we can't help you, we'll let you know up front. But, because our programs tap thousands of publications and media outlets, we usually have something for everybody.

"By using your service, I've learned about journalists who are writing articles that are right up my alley. I've been quoted in at least four articles. A writer from Energy Magazine, who interviewed me for an article several months ago, called back today to interview me for another article! Thanks for your good work. I'm having fun!"
