Dabble vs Dominate
There are two types of article writers: Dabbler’s and Dominator’s.
Only question is… which one are you?
Dabbler starts out like this:
Dabbler on his or her way to market, niche, brand and platform Domination:
Dominator looks something like this:
You can do this level of saturation/domination AND still be proud of each of your articles!
Many struggle to produce new articles from scratch when they already have hundreds or thousands of articles buried within their old email newsletter archives, old or current ebooks/books, forum posts you’ve written that are often enough for full-length articles, old or current blog entries, thoughtful blog comments you’ve written on your site or elsewhere, stock replies to your clients from their frequently asked questions make great articles, etc.
So, before you write a new article… make sure your article inventory includes repackaging and using the hard work you’ve produced to date in other mediums.
Question: What do you think is holding most expert authors back from dominating their niche?
Cool graphic Chris. To answer your question, I would have to say inertia or lazyness. What motivates one author to write – let’s say getting more hits to the website, may not motivate another.
And if getting more people to visit your website isn’t enough to motivate someone to write more articles, I don’t know what would do it – except a monetary incentive, i.e. getting paid for submitting articles.
