How to stop your pitch from getting rejected

ExpertAccess

It's not a mystery: You have to know the publication you're pitching and you must be original.
 
And that means learning all about your subject, not just the smattering of free material you happen to find on the open web.
 
You can't possibly sell an article or book if someone's done it already or if it's not right for the outlet your pitching.
 
And if your subject has been covered, you need to add to the conversation with your own angle. Your piece must offer something new.
 
So do what every top writer does. Start with research. Learn what's out there. Become an expert. Know more than your editor knows.
 
And the best way to do that is to tap into the recognized industry leader for research.

LexisNexis.
 
Don't know to use it? No problem. We'll teach you. Can't afford it? Come on. It's less than $20 per month. That's like four lattes. Which you can expense. Or deduct from your taxes. Sign up now and get free webinars, one-on-one sessions and 24/7 call-in support.

So get LexisNexis. I promise you will become better at what you do.

If you’re serious about writing, you need LexisNexis

ExpertAccess

If you've been a journalist or author for any significant time you know the value of researching your topic through LexisNexis. It's the industry standard. Every big media company uses it, and there's a reason why: serious writers must do serious research and LexisNexis is one-stop shopping for all the information on your subject.

You cannot do your job without it. At least not well.

As editor in chief of the Contently Foundation for investigative reporting and someone who's been a reporter for 30 years, I cannot overstate the value of this resource. I use it constantly and there is zero substitute. But many of the freelancers I worked with didn't have access. It was too expensive and not set up for independent writers.

So I pushed the company to knock down the price, to open the door so any freelancer could afford LexisNexis, and they agreed. They see there's this huge need and are now offering their all-news package for $19.95 per month.

Still, this is a trial deal. We need to prove the wisdom of the offer, and we have only till the end of April to show a good response. So if you have questions or hesitate because of the process, please reach out to me. I will help. We can also make use of a huge team of professional librarians and researchers to find any information you might need. They're available any time, 24/7.

This isn't a sales pitch. It's a plea. Because the more freelancers have LexisNexis, the less work that I, and other editors like me, will have to do on your story after you submit it.

What Is A Cloud Brokerage

Here are the FeedBlitz email updates for housingworldestate@gmail.com



What Is A Cloud Brokerage

I remember writing one of my first blog posts here on ActiveRain. I was excited because I was 100% certain I had found one of the newest and coolest cutting edge technologies that would truly impact the real estate industry in a variety of ways, and I was going to be the first to report and blog about it on AR.Well that blog post did come to fruition, as did the technology which advanced that corporation to where they are today, but let me back up for just a moment. When you think of the cloud, what are your initial and immediate thoughts? Did you just look out the window? lol~My first thoughts are that your email and text messages are in the cloud, your voicemail is in the cloud, your documents and hard-drive backups are in the cloud, your finances and friends on Facebook and Twitter are in the cloud, even this post you're reading is hosted in the ActiveRain Cloud! Seems like the only thing NOT in the cloud is you and I, which may just be my most profound statement of the day.So what is the cloud really? The cloud in general is partly what allows us to be mobile and connected, it is not just for storage and backing up documents and data. The cloud is considered by many simply as "The Internet" which isn't necessarily all encompassing either.Go ahead and Google "What Is The Cloud" and you'll come up with a plethora of interpretations.Mashable says...Cloud.Google says...So then, what is a Cloud Brokerage?Where is it, how does it work, how do you get there, what are the benefits, how does it affect business, how does it affect family and the quality of life, how can it save time and expand financial growth, what is its impact on earth and why should anyone care about the cloud, its purpose and future anyway? These are all great questions. I'd like to invite you to a discussion (a Google Hangout Webinar) where Jason Gesing and myself will discuss in great detail exactly what a cloud brokerage is and how it's impacting and changing real estate today but more importantly... the possible impact on your future.Join us either Tuesday or Thursday *If you are unable to attend or join us at the times posted, there will be a recorded option available.       RETechCampus - Designed By Real Estate Professionals for Real Estate Professionals"Learn More.
