I haven’t tried this new article marketing software. Amid the hype, it sounds pretty good. The fact that it works with WordPress is different enough that at least I’m curious now. But whether I’ll ever try it or not, I do think this article marketer knows how to play the game.

Are You Like This in Article Marketing?

By Dominic Tay

If you want to succeed in article marketing, you cannot be calculative. The word is calculative. What does it mean? Let me explain further.

When we say someone is ‘calculative’, it means that they are expecting every single return they ought to receive base on what they give out, usually instantly.

This means that if they give out a 50%, they expect a 50% return. Admittedly, that’s not always the case in article marketing for 2 good reasons.

So far I agree with Dominic’s premise. Article marketing is not about calculating benefits. It is about communicating with people on their level and watching them respond. You have to have some people skills to pull off article marketing successfully.

1. The results you see might not come in the form you desire. If you are calculative, article marketing would just disappoint you because the results you see may not come in the form you want.

Instead of driving traffic to your website according to your initial intention for the article, the article might end up merely explaining what you’ve written in your previous articles.

Along the same time, you can only tell what your readers want exactly after you’ve spent enough time researching the needs of the market. And during the time of your research, if you’re too calculative and you expect to reap

I’m not sure where he was going that as it looks like the article is cut off, but I’ll finish the sentence any way. If you expect to expect to reap the calculated benefits of every article you write and publish, you’ll be disappointed. Engaging in article marketing is a lot like dating. You can calculate the outcome of your date based on every action you take and every word you utter, but you’ll likely fail because people have free will and can respond to you any way they want to. Your best bet is to show what you have to offer and let people respond the way they naturally will. Then, you can can respond to the ones who respond to you favorably.

2. The results you get usually come only after some time. Reaping instant results is just not something you can get overnight unless you already possess a list of publishers or readers hungry for your content.

It takes some time to write an article, lots of time to get it published and lots of effort in marketing the article (that’s why it’s called article marketing).

The bottom line is that to excel in article marketing, you must give first.

Trust that over time, your results will come in little by little. Practise patience and allow time and article marketing to work for you. Understand that readers need time to read the article, rave about it and promote your article to their fellow friends.
