July 2009 Newsletter For Creative Entrepreneurs

TIPS:

It might be a bit tricky to suggest your products to a major high profile publication, but you might be able to get someone else to do it for you. How you ask?

A trick I use is following the Twitter feeds of high profile magazines and websites. After a while you'll notice whose tweets they retweet (You'll see something like "RT@obscurefashionblog perfect boots for fall" along with a link.) This will tell you what lesser known blogs and websites the major players are influenced by. You can use this information to build a media list of lesser known but highly influential blogs and websites. Then you can focus your efforts on getting those sites to write about you and in turn get your products seen by higher profile publications that are inundated with requests for press.
