Contributing Articles to Magazines and Periodicals

Likewise you could be asked to contribute articles to general interest magazines and periodicals. If this should happen to you, grab the offer without delay. It's an excellent way of increasing awareness and adds to your reputation as an established author - and it pays well (up to $500 for 1000 words).

A few years back I was invited to contribute a five-page article to an in-flight magazine. The subject of the commission was 'setting up in business on your own' and it coincided with the release of the 2nd edition of my book Starting Your Own Business. Not only did the article attract direct sales; it also increased awareness of the title, which did no harm to world wide bookstore and online disposals.
