An Article Writing Primer


Recently, I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Chris Makell of Radiance Marketing on her From Leads to ProfitsTM Teleseminar series.

From Leads to Profits – Lisbeth Tanz Interview

The 60-minute interview covered a range of article writing topics – from headlines, to how to complete the resource box in article directories, to brainstorming on a couple of topics to demonstrate how you can jumpstart your article writing mindset.

We also touched on the Article Writing Success Weekend. I’ve elected to postpone this event mainly because I’m revising, revamping and retooling the program. It will be revealed in early 2011 in its shiny new iteration – better than ever and destined to help you be the best article writer and marketer that you can be!

This audio will give you some insights into how I teach . . . and my sense of humor. I absolutely love helping business owners move their businesses forward through the written and spoken word. As I say in my program, article writing is only the beginning!

(Which is a big hint that more neato things will be coming from me and Your Words, Your Voice in 2011! :-D )

So, have a listen. Let me know what you think. If you’re interested in being on the Early Bird list to be one of the first to learn of the Article Marketing Success Program’s re-launch, you can sign up at Succeeding at Article Marketing.

And do visit Chris’ website. She is a fantastic coach – insightful, thoughtful and not about to let you get by with any excuses that keep you small. (Trust me on this, I’ve experienced it firsthand.)

The audio is accessible on your computer only. Chris is selling the series for a nominal fee – and it’s worth every penny! Visit her site, From Leads to ProfitsTM to learn more. (Just FYI, this is NOT an affiliate link. I just think she’s got something pretty great going here.)

Enjoy – and let me know what you think!

Discover the Secrets to High Impact Business Networking


Note from LisHey – I wanted to let you know about my friend Chris Makell’s upcoming networking program. All business owners – regardless whether they’re writers or in other businesses – need to know how to network effectively. Chris is the real deal and I know you’ll love learning from her. By the way, just so you know, I’m recommending her just because I can – there’s no hidden affiliate link here. But if you sign up – let her know Lis sent you. :-D


One of the fastest ways to get a flood of prospective clients into your pipeline is to get out there and let them know how you can solve their problem! If they don’t know you exist, how can they become a client?


Lisbeth Tanz & Chris Makell

Some business owners find it “scary” to walk into a room full of strangers and hope that someone will talk to them! I know, I’ve been there. I remember spending some networking meetings holding up the wall, just doing what I do best – watching people.

But I know there’s a better way. And, if you’re like me, you’d like a solution sooner than later. After all, you have a business to build or maintain!

So, I’d like to introduce you to my friend, Chris Makell of Radiance Marketing. Chris is just one of those people who is fearless in the face of adversity. She should be. After years of executive level positions at IBM, you learn how to step up and make your voice heard.

Chris opted out of the corporate life and has never looked back. But she found the road to entrepreneurship to be a bit more rocky than she anticipated. One area she had to bone up on quickly? Networking.

And now she’d like to help the rest of us. (And we are so lucky she does!)

She’ll show you how to make an impact when you’re networking and easily make more authentic connections with heart and soul.

Join Chris for the Telecourse that will change the way you feel about networking!

High Impact Networking ~ Making connections with Heart & Soul Telecourse on September 28th and 30th at 8pm EDT, will focus on the 4 simple strategies that form the basis of your High Impact Networking plan.

Maximize your time and investment – How to really prepare for networking and how, so that you always get results for the time, effort and money invested! Make that dress & drive worth it!

Attend the “best” meetings – Discover where your prospects, referral sources and ideal clients meet – it’s not always where you think!

Communicate in a way that gets attention – Create and use the appropriate “approach” for the occasion – no more one size fits all!

Easily get attention when you talk about who you are – Some “titles” are so ho-hum and don’t do justice to who you are and the challenges you solve for clients

You’ll use this high value, high impact business-building tool to fill your pipeline, attract more clients and make more money! (Woohoo – who doesn’t want that?)

Register now, for this business changing, 2-part Telecourse today, at www.highimpactnetworking.com.

Chris said I could share a sneak peek at some of what you’ll discover and experience, but you can listen to a short interview I did with her earlier this week. You can download it here:
