To Busy Professionals Who Want to Write Articles But Can't Find the Time (or Words):
Why Are You Still Struggling?

 

You want to write your own articles—to fill your newsletters, ezines, websites and the Internet with the same wisdom and experience you offer every day to your clients, but in written form.

But if it's just not getting done, something's in the way. Sometimes it's called TOO MUCH TO DO. Other times it's called NOT ENOUGH TIME. It even goes by the name JUST DON'T LIKE TO WRITE!

Whatever the reason, the end result is that you don't get your newsletter written. Or you struggle waaaaay too much and take precious time away from your clients or other business tasks. Or, worse, you hurry through and write something that reflects poorly on you and your services.

That's OK...we've got your back!

Announcing: Articles for Sale!

You can avoid the struggle and time-sink altogether by buying high-quality, professionally written articles from Claire Communications. Use them as is or change them as you wish.

The Lowdown

You have full reprint rights to each article that you purchase. You can sign your name to it, and include information about you and your business in a "Resource Box" at the bottom. Then you're free to publish or submit it anywhere you like. (The copyright, of course, remains with us.)

As well, you can add your own voice to the article by editing, changing, adding or removing anything you like. In fact, because some article submission sites have strict guidelines against publishing articles you don't have exclusive rights to, we would encourage you to make some changes to the article.

We suggest that you consider each article you purchase from Claire Communications as a "skeleton" of an article, that you can dress up a bit in your own style. For example, change the headline and/or the first paragraph or two. Use examples from your coaching or therapy experience. Add a bullet or two to the lists.

 

Introducing the “You Talk,
I’ll Write!”
Service

 
 

If you want your very own article, written exclusively for you based on your unique coaching concepts, tools and methods, we can do that!

When you book a "You Talk, I'll Write!" article, you'll get a 30-minute phone call with our YTIW partner, Linda Dessau, to discuss and develop your article ideas. Then, sit back and wait (usually three business days or less) for delivery of your 500-word original article. Linda D. is an excellent writer, a certified coach and a real pleasure to work with. For more information on her, see About Us.

Cost: $175 (500 words). Purchase here.

 

While it’s not likely that two individuals will approach the same exact audience with the same article, it is conceivable. Therefore, you want to "make the article your own."

You may wonder, "Why should I buy an article if I'm going to end up re-writing it myself?" Well, it's simple. It takes a lot less time and effort to adjust a well-written article than it does to create one from scratch.

Of course you could write your own articles from scratch if you had to, but is that really how you want to be spending your time?

The Cost

Articles and Quizzes are $45, with Top 10s being $30.

Compare this with the cost of your time. How much money do you "spend" doing your own article if it takes you 4 hours to research, write, edit and proof it? Wouldn't you rather spend 10 minutes adjusting an article and 3 hours 50 minutes doing something else? At that rate, you could have 12 articles ready to go in only half the time!

Buying articles here gives you an instant headstart on the entire process, for a fraction of the cost.

The Payoff

Peace of mind. You can relax, knowing you are publishing quality articles.

Excitement. You're going to look like a star!

Confidence. Having your name attached to these professional, valuable articles will boost your self-esteem on the inside and enhance your credibility on the outside.

More time. With someone else taking charge of generating content for your newsletters, you'll have more time to do what you love doing.

Partners in your business. You have the support of writers with 25+ years of professional experience, who specialize in creating content for coaches, therapists, consultants and others interested in personal and professional development.

The Why

While it may be true that a picture speaks a thousand words, the written word has a power all its own. Seeing something in print gives it a credence that we don’t give to most oral language. And if the article speaks about an issue that is present in the reader’s life or mind, it immediately helps to establish the author of the article as a valued expert.
 
For these reasons, articles are very valuable marketing tools when building and maintaining a therapy, coaching or other self-growth business.
