Here's why your students will love this topic...

'Free publicity is what you get when journalists, industry experts, and influencers talk about you.... for FREE!  

This type of content is often called 'earned' media (as opposed to your own or paid content).  

It includes anything where you're talked about or mentioned (online or offline), such as:  

  • Articles in print magazines, newspapers, and journals
  • Digital articles and blog posts (unpaid)
  • TV news segments
  • Tweets & social media posts (not sponsored)
  • Guest appearances on webinars, podcasts, and livestreams
  • Inclusion in a list of 'experts'
  • ...anywhere people are saying good things about YOU

Why should you be teaching your audience how to get free publicity ?  

Because people trust it more! In fact...  

 92% of consumers trust earned media over traditional ads (Nielson)  

and  

96% of B2B Buyers want content with more input from industry thought leaders (DemandGen)  

This type of content also adds to search results online, and 8 out of 10 people will Google you or your business before they buy from you!  

Free publicity through earned media will:  

  • Increase your brand recognition 
  • Widen visibility for your business and offers 
  • Build greater trust in you and your business 
  • Attract new followers on social media 
  • Drive new leads to your website or opt-in page  

...and ultimately lead to more sales. However, Generating these types of results isn't as simple as writing a press release and contacting some journalists and influencers. It requires the step-by-step, strategic approach we cover in our brandable, ready-to-teach course.

Our How to Attract Free Publicity program gives you everything you need to learn and teach others how to:  

  • Position your business with a clear message, so people know what and why to write about you
  • Create a media kit that makes it easy for people to find key facts
  • Identify the journalists & influencers who will want to write about you
  • Define a 'hook' and write a press release that makes you newsworthy
  • Get your press releases and stories seen in the deluge of requests
  • Plan your publicity schedule and automate wherever possible to save time


[Check out the Module Overviews below for more details on what you'll cover in the course.]  

Our ready-to-go program is divided into separate modules and lessons, so it can easily be broken up to deliver sections over time – to avoid overwhelm and give time for implementation.  

Best of all, everything is editable and rebrandable.  

So you can learn from it yourself to start attracting publicity for your business.  

AND, you can use the same materials to help your clients, customers, members, and prospects.  

That's because when you purchase a license to our customizable courses, you get the rights to: 

  • Edit the content any way you want
  • Put your name and brand on, and
  • Repurpose it into whatever media you want

Then use your new course to...

  • Attract a flood of leads for your other products and services
  • Expand your reputation as an expert with online courses, webinars, workshops, videos, and more
  • Provide resources for your clients to help them get results (and win their lasting devotion)
  • Create a nice new income stream with a paid program (in any format you want)

You'll be helping your audience implement a powerful strategy for growing their audience and their business.  

And... you'll be adding a major asset to your own business (a course!) that will take it to a whole new level.

Here's what you'll teach in 'How to Attract Free Publicity'...

How to Attract Free Publicity is designed to be delivered in whatever format makes the most sense for YOUR audience. For example, you can deliver it as any or all of the following:

  • 2-day in-person, hands-on workshop (or VIP retreat)
  • Online course with both text and a series of 20 or more bite-sized videos
  • Webinar series with 4 or more live, interactive sessions (plus handouts)
  • Self-study eBook with Action Guide (add a coaching upsell to increase value)
  • Dripped email course with attached worksheets (add links to your other programs!)

How you use the content is entirely up to you and what you need for your audience and your business. But no matter how you decide to teach the course, here's what you'll cover:  

Introduction

You'll start out with an overview of the course and what your students will learn, so that everyone is excited to jump in and get going.

Module 1 – Publicize Your Business

Publicity is important to all businesses, but many entrepreneurs shy away from publicizing their own business.  

In this first module, you’ll identify why publicity is important and how to identify what’s already being said about you online. You’ll also write your own positioning statement so you’re clear on the message you want to get across.

  • Lesson 1: Why You Should Do Your Own Publicity - In Lesson 1, you'll identify why publicity is important for your students' small businesses and how they can uncover their current public image, so they can effectively manage their brand reputation.
  • Lesson 2: How to Position Your Business - In Lesson 2, you'll help your students write a positioning statement to describe their product or service and how it meets the needs of their target customer, so they can quickly express how they stand out in their market.  

Module 2 – Create Your Media Kit

Before you start contacting journalists and influencers, you need to have all your key details together in one place.  

In Module 2, you’ll show your students how to pull together the information they need in order to compile a media kit and put it online. Then, anyone who wants to talk to them about their business has access to the facts they need right away. The less work needed, the more likely someone will write about you!

Module 3 – Identify Journalists & Influencers to Contact

Knowing whom to contact with your story and how to do so is vitally important if you want to stand out.  

In Module 3, you’ll show your students how to compile a database of media contacts related to their area of expertise, identify their unique hook that will attract publicity, and write a one page press release for an upcoming event to send to their media contacts.

  • Lesson 1: Identify the Who and the When - In Lesson 1, you'll help your students compile details of the most relevant media people they should contact and when they should get in touch.
  • Lesson 2: Define Your Hook - In Lesson 2, you'll teach your students how to identify their unique hook so that they can use it to attract publicity.
  • Lesson 3: Write Your Press Release - In Lesson 3, you'll show your students how to write a one-page press release for an upcoming event which they can send to appropriate media and industry expert contacts.


Module 4 - Effective Ways to Distribute Your Press Releases

Now that you’ve identified your database of relevant contacts and have your press release ready to go, you need to find a way to get it out there to the world.  

In Module 4, you’ll guide your students to choose the most effective methods to contact journalists and influencers and get their news story in front of them,... in a way that makes them stand out from all the other requests those people get daily.

Module 5 – Put Together Your Publicity Schedule

Planning ahead for your publicity is as important as planning for any of your other business goals. It can’t be an afterthought if you want it to work.  

In Module 5, you’ll show you students how to develop a comprehensive publicity plan for the year ahead and install tools to automate routine tasks where appropriate.

  • Lesson 1: Plan Your Year Ahead - In Lesson 1, you'll help your students develop a comprehensive publicity plan for the year ahead which can be implemented by themselves or their team, so they don't waste time constantly trying to think up newsworthy ideas.
  • Lesson 2: Automate To Save Time - In Lesson 2, you'll teach your students how to install tools to automate routine publicity tasks so that you can save time.  

Module 6 - Review and Refine

In this final module, you’ll share tips for your students to get even better results from their publicity activities. You’ll give your students the opportunity to review their work and plan future action steps so they can achieve the goals they set for this course.

And to teach the program above, here’s exactly what you’ll get in 'How to Attract Free Publicity':

Take a Sneak Peek Inside the Course 

Watch as I open up the course folders and show you EXACTLY what content you'll get and how it works...

What's Your Investment for All This Incredible Content?

You can see that Content Sparks programs pack in a lot of value.  

That’s because as learning experts and marketing specialists, we develop top-notch material AND we want to help you use it to attract clients and customers, so that everyone’s business grows.  

But don’t worry, the cost is going to be MUCH less than you think.  

Much less than it should be, based on the value of this program...  

Much less than courses that teach you how to create a program like this yourself...  

(Plus, this is ready to launch in minutes, not months, and even includes lead generation material to attract students to the course.)  

Much less than hiring a team to help you design your program and create content...  

And MUCH, MUCH less than learning how to create a program like this by trial and error...  

...where you can lose money AND get zero sales. 

So let’s say, conservatively, that you can create this course yourself for $8,000.  

Now, that’s not nearly enough money to hire someone to help you...that’s just accounting for your personal time.  

(If you’re a highly paid consultant, however, that $8,000 estimate is going to be MUCH higher...) 

So you’d still have to research the topic, narrow down the key points, outline a logical flow, figure out learning activities that people can do, write all the content, develop support resources (like worksheets and checklists), create the slideshow, design graphics, edit and proofread everything, make it look professional, create lead generation materials, write autoresponder emails, and more. 

For example, here's the approximate amount of time it takes us to create a course like this one... 

But if you don't have experience creating courses, it's going to take HUNDREDS of hours to do that properly...  

And probably additional hundreds or thousands of dollars just to learn how to build a quality course or a high-converting sales funnel...  

And after all of that, you don’t know if anyone is going to buy...  

Especially if you’ve never sold your own program before.  

OR, you can easily and quickly create your own courses...  

Using ready-to-go programs from a company with a long track record of success...  

And expand your business...  

Earn more money, work fewer hours, and become the authority in your market.  

All for significantly less than trying to do the same thing on your own.  

So, as part of this offer...  

You won't pay $8,000...  

You won't pay $3,000...  

You won't even pay $1,500...

But Will Done-For-You Programs from Content Sparks REALLY Boost My Revenue?

To answer that, first I have to tell you a bit about why Content Sparks was created... 

Hi, I’m Sharyn Sheldon, founder of Content Sparks.  

Soon after starting my very first online business, I found myself stuck...  

I knew that creating sales and marketing content for my customers would take my business to the next level, however, there were a few big problems. 

Maybe they sound familiar?

Meet Sharyn Sheldon
  • I was so busy doing work for customers that I never seemed to have enough time to work on my own business... 
  • I was overwhelmed and didn’t know where to start...I was just staring at a blank page... 
  • I didn’t have the budget to hire a team or to spend $3,000 on one of those online “how to market and grow your business” courses... 
  • I didn’t know how to attract customers for my products and services... 
  • I was worried about maintaining income level (and my ability to ever grow it)...

And so I stayed stuck...  

...until I discovered brandable, done-for-you content.  

For instance, I used this ready-to-go content to create bonuses for products I wanted to promote.  

All I had to do was download it, add some points I thought were important, and brand it.  

I saved at least a day of work this way, and at the time, I was billing out $2,000/day.  

I also earned several thousand dollars in commissions because I was able to offer a valuable bonus. 

Still, I noticed some problems with the brandable content out there...  

For one thing, some of the products weren't designed for learning and taking action.  

And when they were, the content was sometimes outsourced to non-native English speakers.  

Also, a lot of the done-for-you content out there was pretty bad...  

The sales and marketing products weren’t written by sales and marketing experts...and it definitely was not up to my standards. So I still had to spend a LOT of time editing it.  

So that's why I started Content Sparks, to provide high-quality, customizable sales and marketing courses. 

Today our team has created business training programs for Fortune 500 companies and small businesses for over 30 years... courses that get results.  

Just imagine this scenario:

  • You have a high-quality course in just minutes...
  • You quickly jump in and customize any of the material...
  • You launch the course for a fraction of the cost of starting from scratch...
  • You have everything you need to attract customers and clients...
  • Your program continues to sell, taking your business to that next level...without any extra work on your part...

You don’t have to take my word for it, though. Here’s what business owners just like you have to say about Content Sparks:

"I often use Content Sparks to put out a ‘test’ product, see if there's any interest. I was surprised at the speed that I can put something together to test, so that's saved me tens of thousands of pounds.  

Also, if I do a talk or workshop, I have something to sell at the end of it.... since I don't always know who will be in the room or what their needs are."  

Sarah Arrow, Birds on the Blog

"The quality, the ease of adaptation, the logical flow of the information provided, the professional look of the courses both on the front end (student materials) and the back-end (teacher and marketing materials) makes using Content Sparks courses an easy and best choice!"

Dave Sweney, CEO, Soaring Eagle LLC, creators of the SMART Tools for Business and SMART Affiliate Program

"Thanks to Content Sparks, I’ve been able to start a membership site. I always wanted to do it, but never had the time. I’m charging $27 and $97 per month and am using Content Sparks products to drip new content each month. With 50 members at the $27/month right now, that's an additional $1,350/month right there, all from a $149 investment."

Tamara Patzer, Local Marketing Director & Social Media Educator

"I used Content Sparks products to create a lead magnet for $37 intro coaching calls. I was blown away with the quality. And it saved me at least $50,000 worth of my time. With one solo ad, I got 123 emails and 65 phone numbers of prospects. Now it's up to me to call them!"

VaNessa Duplessie, The Coaches' Coach

"Sharyn's materials help me to stay stealthy. I'm able to develop new programs quickly and professionally, always offering something new to my members and leaders, giving me tremendous edge in the market. My network is growing rapidly and I'm expanding into other cities. Now, as leaders plug into the system I've created, I'm able to help them grow their business as well."

Jennifer H., Inspired Influencers Academy

"It's a tremendous help to be able to reduce timeframes from 45 (days) to under a week. And that helps me secure more deals as well, because I can have that turnover time to be able to help support what the client needs, especially in these challenging times."

Chris Gloss, Coach, Public Speaker & Veteran

Imagine creating an online academy, product suite, or a full membership site....
