Five More Tips For Promoting Your Blog Off Line

In the last post, you learned about five tips to help you promote your money making blog off line. Here are five more that will round out this series and perhaps give you some ideas for getting the word out in your area.

Sponsor an event. This event could be anything, but will work best if it is related to your field of expertise. Find something that is relevant to your business and take it form there.

Advertise. While there are several viable forms on online advertising available, there is still nothing like advertising in its traditional form. Whether you choose broadcast, print or both, advertising in your area can be a very effective means of letting others know of your existence.

Offer branded merchandise. This includes: mugs, t-shirts and other items that contain your logo and business name. These items work great as give aways as well. Take them to local events to advertise your company.

Publish a book. This one may seem a bit far fetched, but not impossible. If you have never published any work before, you might start out by writing and submitting articles to your local paper. This is a great way to advertise in your specific area. You can submit to your town paper or a main paper in your state of residence. You may even want to do both. Home town papers, however, are often most likely to publish articles by first-time writers because they hit very close to home and help promote the town as a whole by promoting a business that exists there.

Finally, do a radio interview. Call local radio stations and tell them about your business. Convince them you should be interviewed, that you have something valuable to offer your community as a whole and the word really must be spread.
