Do you recall my blog posts related to the tip sheet? I posted one in June of last year and one in October. Maybe you recall that a tip sheet is a short list of tips that you create on practically any topic for editors of print or online publications. <\/p>\n
It\u2019s similar to an article, only it\u2019s brief and succinct. And it is another good way to promote your nonfiction book to your audience while continuing to position yourself as an expert. <\/p>\n
Instead of writing in detail about your topic, you simply offer a short list of tips. <\/p>\n
Whether you write on weight loss, pet care, volunteering, health issues, fitness, showing rabbits, traveling, how to write poetry, sibling rivalry or hoarding, you should be able to come up with many different tip sheets. <\/p>\n
What are the types of tips you could list on a tip sheet? Let\u2019s use volunteering in our example. You could list:<\/p>\n
\u2022 10 resources for finding volunteer opportunities
\n\u2022 5 types of volunteering people do
\n\u2022 7 attributes of the best volunteers
\n\u2022 15 types of volunteer opportunities
\n\u2022 8 ways to choose your volunteering match
\n\u2022 10 of the best ways to help your community<\/p>\n
For the traveling topic you might create tip sheets on the following:<\/p>\n
\u2022 10 popular destinations
\n\u2022 7 packing tips
\n\u2022 20 tips for traveling with kids
\n\u2022 10 ways to entertain kids on a plane
\n\u2022 5 tips for choosing the right luggage
\n\u2022 15 RV travel tips<\/p>\n
Sell your tip sheets (with your brief bio attached) to publications related to the topic of your tips and tweak them to fit regional (they relate to a specific geographic area), general (write them for a more general audience), religious (give them a spiritual edge), senior, parenting and other types of magazines.<\/p>\n
Here are a few examples of how to tweak your tip sheets: volunteering for seniors, volunteering for residents of the Midwest states, tips for traveling with your pet, tips for keeping the faith while traveling, how to get a teaching job on a cruise ship and so forth.<\/p>\n
Contact me if you need help getting your freelance article-writing business started, writing your book proposal, promoting your book, building your platform or if you are looking for a book editor. I just learned that a client whose query letter I edited and helped her rewrite, has caught the attention of a major publisher. Another client emailed me last week and said that she has now sold over 50,000 copies of her book. <\/p>\n
Tomorrow I will post a sample tip sheet.<\/p>\n
