To increase page views and promotion of your audio, video and written works on Associated Content, consider preparing a publicity packet. Quite simply, a publicity packet of information that can be distributed to local businesses or individuals who may have an interest in reviewing your content page.

Publicity packets can be prepared for relatively little money and may provide the key opportunity to successful promotion of your content. Supplying your publicity packets to college professors, college students, local activity centers, libraries and even non-for-profit organizations, you can develop name recognition for yourself.

To create a publicity packet, you will want to include several key pieces of documentation. First, create a resume or biography that outlines who you are, including your professional and personal experience. In doing this, you are providing the organization with an opportunity to learn who you are on both sides of the spectrum. With this bio, consider including a photograph of yourself.

Once your bio is complete, you will want to also include a brief history of who and what Associated Content is and how you become involved as a Content Producer. Within this piece of information, attach copies of your published written works and supply information regarding future pieces you are working on.

Following the bio and history, with sample published works, insert a page that is fun and lighthearted; maybe one that gives quizzes or trivia information that is pertinent to your specialty of writing or something that may be fun or interesting to the recipient of the publicity packet.
