Take an excerpt from your fiction, poetry, or other book. Not all people want to write articles. Set up a dramatic incident from your story, then put "Excerpted from "Title of your Book." Or, take a page or two that shows your hero in action or in conflict. Conflicts include with others, with self, with nature, with technology or with fate. People love conflict, which leads to action. Remember the who, what, where, when, why and how of your story. Create any one of these into a short piece. One client wrote a memoir on growing up during the Great Depression. She wrote a short article on the New Deal by Roosevelt to attract people to her book, because history lovers would read it. 8. Write a list to help your audience succeed in meeting a challenge.

Your Online audience of small business people can be narrowed to service businesses, product businesses, professional coaches, consultants, health professionals, then different ages. Think outside the box and win new fans from new audiences. 10. Write a mini sales letter article. Choose a topic, title, and thesis. For instance, "Conquer Procrastination Through Prioritizing." You know have identified a problem. Aim your article at one audience, such as business people. Start your article with a hook. Ask a question that reflects your audience's challenge that they need help on. Follow with more on the background of their need or situation. Then deliver several solutions.
