Last week I told you about the importance of SEO in earning online press coverage.
It’s one of the reasons we added content creation to our short list of services at Media Maven.
It was just media relations before.
👩🏻💻 You Gotta Write.
I can’t tell you how many times we get something like this in response to a pitch:
“We’d love to cover this, but we just don’t have the resources. Follow back up in a few weeks.”
The amount of additional coverage you earn, if you’re willing to create the content and get it placed as a contributor, is wild!
Plus, you can easily turn opportunities like this into regular contributing roles.
…and it doesn’t only make you better at contributing articles, but that turns into better social media copy and marketing copy.
If it wasn’t on your radar before, I hope it is now.

📖 Alex Hormozi. Know him?
I feel like a few years ago, this guy came out of nowhere.
I love his short-form videos.
I read and loved his book 100M Offers… and now he’s launching a new book called 100M Leads.
Here’s a quick rundown on this big guy with a mustache:
1. 100M Offers has sold over 430,000 copies.
2. He sold his last business for $43 million.
3. He gives away all his best stuff for free.
I’ve been given an exclusive link for Become a Media Maven email subscribers here to attend his book launch event that is (no doubt) going to be super valuable.
And of course, it’s free and virtual (so you can tune in from anywhere).
I’ll be there.

Dalton Johnson is looking for…
- the “best dehydrated/freeze-dried foods”
If you are a company in this space, he is looking for a sample to be taste-tested for the article. His goal is to test these, write reviews, and write a handful of specific “best of…” types of articles.
- a few gift guides for the holiday season
If you have a product that you think would be a good fit, send him an email with details so he can get it into a writer’s hands and test the product for consideration to be included in a gift guide.
- unique stays that are “the perfect springboard” for your next adventure
If you reach out, please remember all the pitching tips I’ve shared with you here in the newsletter, on my podcast, and on social media!
