This is a slide deck that will rock your world.
You've worked hard to get your local newspaper to feature you. Guess what, nobody saw it. Okay, maybe a few people did, but you can't expect that this feature is going to immediately result in sales. Instead think of it as your top of the sales funnel and funnel folks into the path you want them too. And it makes sense too, because likely they press you got was produced for a broad business audience or not a business audience at all.
It's impressive to your target customers that you've been featured. It makes them look at you as an authority. I would be willing to bet its the same scenario as receiving an introduction from someone that you respect. But, just because someone says, 'Hey meet John', it doesn't mean that all the work is done, rather it means it has just begun.
This workshop, 'The 8 Knock-Em Out of the Park strategies to leverage the work, press + testimonials you already have to triple your business exposure,' will give you strategies to leverage press, testimonials, existing work, social reviews, pop-ups on your website, podcasts, blog posts and tv interviews to push your audience through the exact path you want them to head down.

48. Hi [person who runs the site],
My name is ______, and I write the blog _______, [one line about
your website and why it matters; for instance, “News To Live By,
which highlights the career advice “hidden” in the headlines.”] I hope
you’re doing well.
I am a big fan of [site where you want to guest post] and read your
content all the time. I especially like [reference two recent posts you
find worthwhile and link to them; for instance, “your posts on email
templates for building relationships and how to tell stories during an
interview.”]
49. [Then, one more compliment that leads into your pitch; for instance, “I
like News To Live By because the advice is practical, and I have similar
content I think your audience would appreciate.”]
I wrote a blog post recently called [blog post headline that’s linked to
the post], and in a nutshell it’s about [quick line on what the post is
about; for instance, “smart tips for dealing with rude co-workers.”] I
would be happy to send it over as a guest post if you’d like. Here are a
couple other recent posts I’ve done:
– [blog post headline that’s linked to the post]
– [blog post headline that’s linked to the post]
50. If you have other ideas, I am open to writing something else for [the
site where you want to guest post].
Thanks, and I hope to hear from you.
– You
