Free Teleclass On Profiting From ContentRate This Post:
Interested in discovering how you can move from being a “writer” to becoming a true profitable “content producer“? You’re invited to join me this Tuesday night November 27th from 7-8pm CST for the last FREE teleclass that I’ll be offering in 2007. I’ll be interviewing someone who is earning a 6 figure income from content and has literally written the Cash Content Formula. We’ll be covering rich topics together such as:
PRINT THIS FREE TELECLASS DETAILS PAGE AND PLACE BY YOUR PHONE: This teleclass is limited to the first 250 people to call in and with 70,000+ expert authors on my private list, I expect the teleclass will be full.
WHO IS OUR GUEST EXPERT? Cathy Stucker, Author of Cash Content Formula, an easy to understand course that reveals the easy formula for turning content into multiple streams of income for you. Why am I doing a FREE Teleclass on how to Profit from Content when I could easily sell seats to such an event?
In prior events, I required those who wanted to attend to give up their email address and name before I’d reveal the secret teleclass call in data. After reading about the concept of “moving the free line” down (thanks Eben), I thought it’d be fun to remove the barrier to entry so that attending this event (last of its kind from me in 2007) would be as easy as printing out this page and making the call. NOTE: This is not a relentless product pitch event. Yes, I am doing this free teleclass to introduce Cathy’s new Cash Content Formula product, but we will keep the new product mention to less than 15% of the teleclass so that you’re guaranteed 51 jam-packed minutes of great information you can use immediately! In fact, we’re going to skip the intro’s of our VIP guests calling in so that we can jump into the core concepts prepared for the teleclass. Please answer this question: (some questions may be used Tuesday night during the teleclass with Cathy) What is your single biggest challenge to overcome when trying to profit or improve your ability to profit from your content?

Sounds like a wonderful idea. My problem is trying to decide what people are interested in that I can profit from. Regards, Arthur Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 3:10 pm

My biggest problem: doing the actual writing fast enough — increasing productivity while maintaining high standards in content and form (Question: why are you not making it possible to contribute questions anonymously an without additional hurdles (uinput of codes such as 7fbd) Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 3:20 pm

Great idea for a TeleClass! Once we “writers” get past the blocks and get to writing compelling copy - the BIG question is…(regardless of what we are promoting) In an article - WHAT gets people to TAKE ACTION and go to our sites noted in the resource box?

My biggest problem is creating articles that are research based and filled with useful content, not just content that people will find of interest, but useful. In my mind there is a difference. Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 3:47 pm

My Challenges: Getting recognition from other credible individuals that would in turn give others a “perceived” value prior to “clicking” along with building a “good” list in a reasonable amount of time! Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 3:50 pm

Finding out if there is a time-saving method to identify markets that pay for content in my field which is leadership / management and self-improvement topics. Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 3:51 pm

Hi Chris! This is very interesting! I’m waiting for the tape because I cannot follow the Teleseminars being in Greece. We here are around 9 hours in front of you, I never know how to calculate the time and I don’t like to stay in the phone too long. I’m curious about what Cathy will suggest, though! I saw many sites that pay for content, but it has to be exclusive, only for their site. Now, my answer to the question: What is your single biggest challenge to overcome when trying to profit or improve your ability to profit from your content? Thank you for showing us how we can start profiting from content! This is very nice from you! Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 4:15 pm

This might be a silly question for this forum, but I’d like to know how to find out who needs an article for a specific topic. Then I’d like to know what ‘good’ (read will provide income) means. Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 4:25 pm

I write articles that might list 3 ways to do Xyz. Step 2 might be hard to do so I mention that I’ve created software that does it for them. Then I continue to step 3. My question is: Is it ok to make a reference to my product in the middle of the article (embedded text link) when i submit my article to article directories? Thanks, Mark Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 4:30 pm

My biggest problem: I can provide a lot of information about my topic / field of expertise (adventure travel in BC, Canada) but I don’t think it’s something anybody would want to pay me for…so I’d need to think of a product first that I could turn into money/profit and that’s my challenge.

I would like to raise a point that is important to the writer of an article and also the reader. Recently it was no longer allowed to use affiliate links in articles, I have no problem with that and in fact can see the reasons. My website is an information site with a lot of categories making it simpler for the reader to navigate. When I submit an article I can only use my main site page ie http:// cothivalebooks . com. [EDITORS NOTE: UNLINKED ON PURPOSE PER BLOG COMMENT POLICY] This is not an affiliate link but a page properly written up to give the reader immediate and direct access to the information discussed in the article. If they are lead straight to the main webpage only, then they have to navigate to find the information themselves. I would imagine that a lot of php websites are set up in a similar manner. I understand that the rules are the rules and I am certainly not wanting to buck the system but is there not a case for allowing the page link for multi page websites?

My two biggest challenges seem to be lack of TIME to finish articles and other tasks, and trying to figure out the TECHNOLOGY to automate things. (Not that it is difficult, just another thing to “look into”.) This is a great idea for a teleclass, and I hope I get home in time to be able to join you tomorrow. Thank you.

I love the idea. My biggest problem is coming up with a title that make people want to read on and then getting to leave info at your site. Linda Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 4:39 pm

The biggest issue I have concerns the transition from an information-type article to a workshop. Although the ideal outcome is to generate interest, I find it difficult to not make the article sound like a “sales pitch.” Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 4:44 pm

I applaud the concept of ‘free line down’ My biggest issue is giving enough useful, quality content to generate interest in my content writing skills, without giving so much information that I’m no longer needed Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 4:50 pm

Moving the “free line” toward the “paid line” seems to be my biggest problem. I’ve built a decent sized list of fairly responsive buyers… based upon them receiving my free content (whch they all tell me they love). I’ve just got to stop giving too much away.

I love having some support. I am new at this and appreciate some help. I have alot to say, yet I want to say it with integrity. I know I must work on the way I say what needs to be said with English and the proper way. Ezine has been a great help, I hope I can keep helping make a difference!

My biggest problem? Read Cathy’s Cash Content Formula sales page and it would seem that the answer to my biggest problem may lie in her formula. I’m eager to hear what will be said in the teleclass. My Problem: Creating a workable step-by-step plan that includes researched subject matter expert content of interest, multi-stream marketing the same content to different audiences, placing a dollar value on content for sale, where to find the markets into which to sell content, and how to have buyers coming back for more.

I can write the articles, but I don’t know how to make money from it. Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 5:27 pm

Thanks, Chris. My biggest problem is bridging the gap between interested readers and product purchasers. If the income is to occur from information products I create, a second problem is knowing where to draw the line between giving it all away free in articles and understanding what people will find valuable enough to pay for. Of course there are other possible ways to generate income from content, I assume, other than snagging traffic. So a third problem would be identifying those other cash-generating options!

Hi Chris, I really want to hear what you and Cathy Stucker have to say. I’m not sure but I think you are probably in America so its not practical for me to phone in from Europe. Can I listen in on the web? Any idea what time it will be GMT? Keep up the good work. Nest regards Jack Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 5:52 pm

If you can’t make a recording available, would it be possible to rerun this during business hours? I have 2 toddlers at home during the evening, so to listen in would be very difficult. Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 6:12 pm

I think the big question is, what is the most effective way to pick the content of our articles we write to build our lists and generate more business. Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 8:06 pm

The product I sell online (decorative pillows) is difficult for me to work up “a rant” about… I like the products we have and I am excited about each new one we select for the site (there are over 500 throw pillows there, now!) but it’s hard for me to imagine anyone else getting as excited about something as mundane and ordinary as a “couch pillow”! That hold’s me back… (Yup-piee another pillow! That’s how I feel) so I write about “Color” or some related topic… I guess I write BEST when I’m disturbed about something… Perhaps I should write about how upset I am that “no one’s” looking at my site! : ) (the html is a joke) Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 8:55 pm

Is Google Adsense really the only game in town for ad revenue generation? What are the viable alternatives? Now I see that Adsense can be used with YouTube (no small advantage). Who is on the same level as Google/Adsense for making money as a content publisher? Am I missing something? THANKS!! Comment provided November 26, 2007 at 9:21 pm

Compelling content on my website that will generate sales once people arrive from my fantastic articles. Should I have more content there, or just a sales pitch; or should I have links to ancillary sales pages with a link to my home page?

My biggest problem right now: to get more subscribers to sign up for my ezine/email list. I really hope you will make the tape available. Even if the specific offer is time-sensitive, the tape will still give us information about Cathy Stucker and her product, which can only be in her and everybody else’s interest!

QUESTION: Will this Free Teleclass be Recorded and will a replay of it be available?
ANSWER: YES, this teleclass will be recorded, but I’m undecided if or how long a replay will be made available due to the time-sensitive offer being made at the end of the class for those joining us.
