Marketing tips for writers in tough times -- let's share ideas!

Hi Michael

Thanks for sharing the tip about Facebook. That's a great idea.

I think everyone will be affected in some way by the economy -- it is just a part of life. People that think they aren't are most likely "whistling in the dark" about the whole thing. But who can blame them? It is a scary, scary thing.

I've picked up some new clients during this time and gotten some cool projects -- so I have no complaints. But we do need to face the fact that the economy is going to have a trickle down effect on us. Just how much it trickles on us, in some ways is up to us!

Yea, that's true. Everyone just needs to keep on plugging away like you said instead of believing it's 1929. There's plenty of work out there for online writers anyways. Even if it's something you have to build like residual income at places like Suite101, Associated Content, or eHow where you can writer whatever you want to write about.

Anyways, great idea on the Caffeinate Your Web Content. I went to the lulu page.

Cheers~

 

agree. i have had more luck with facebook than myspace.

 

Social network marketing is definitely an effective way. As to the recession, as long as there is demand, there is business. Just need to keep going and perhaps look to target other niches you've overlooked. Put in an extra bit of work here and there, and it'll be fine. It's no end of the world
