Writing Articles, Blogs, and Books to Grow Your Business

Presented By: Cathy Fyock, CSP

You understand that writing a blog, an article, or a book could open the doors for increased business, could be the calling card that really grabs the attention of your hottest prospects, or could open the floodgates for media attention. Whether you’ve tried before and couldn’t get traction, whether it’s just too overwhelming, whether you believe you don’t have time, or whether the critical voices in your head are just too negative (What makes you think you can write a book?), the time to write could not be better.

Learner Outcomes:

1. Identify your strategic plan for writing

2. Overcome obstacles to writing (not enough time, can’t get focused, I can’t write)

3. Create an action plan for writing
