Make New Media Work for You!

Join other successful writers in using the power of the Internet to grow your audience, promote your talent, and develop perpetual income streams from your writing by using Twitter, Facebook, and hundreds of other lesser-known tools to increase your productivity and reach.

Markets are shrinking for writers, or so it seems.

Newspapers are shutting their doors after a century or more of business.

Magazines are going bankrupt at an unheard-of rate.

User-generated content is swamping the Internet.

And that old standby for writers, corporate and nonprofit work, is in the tightest budgetary pinch in nearly a century.

What’s a writer to do?

Hi, I’m Sandra Friend. For ten years, I’ve been a speaker at writers conferences training my fellow writers how to use the Internet more effectively to build up their audiences and connect with their readers. I’m a member of the Society of American Travel Writers, the American Society of Journalists and Authors, the Society of Childrens Book Writers and Illustrators, and the Florida Outdoor Writers Association.

In the same ten years, I’ve had 22 books published through mainstream publishing houses such as W.W. Norton, Lerner Books, Charlesbridge, and the University Press of Florida.

I launched my first website in 1995, BEFORE I jumped headlong into the field of travel writing. And I just kept teaching myself new tricks.

No matter whether you’re a seasoned journalist with questions about today’s rapidly changing online world or an eager writer looking to break into a traditional market,

You can do it too!

Make New Media work for you.

At a time when it seems like our markets are shrinking, New Media is expanding opportunities for writers at an exponential rate. The good news is tools to make your work more simple are part of the expansion!

Use the Right Tools

While preparing to speak at a writer’s conference last fall, I developed a simple training course for working travel journalists to understand the powerful potential of New Media tools and techniques.

After teaching the course to a packed room, I was amazed at the response… and the clamor for the e-book I promised to develop as a take-away for students.

I have to tell you I’m amazed at how well you covered so much information in one session (and now in one guide)! Many of us walked out wanting to do another session right away to get on with the ideas you touched on.

It felt like the first time I walked through a Whole Foods store.
So many possibilities and I wanted to sample everything!

Those who attended your presentation in Orlando really struck gold – and if they use even a little of the information – the session will likely be one of the best they’ve ever attended.

Thanks so much for your wonderful presentation at MTWA. What an eye-opener. It’s going to take awhile to digest it all. If you can send me your e-book, that would be wonderful.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard such good buzz about a presentation. It really was appreciated.

From an overview of the Web 2.0 phenomenon to specific money-making strategies, this short course covers the tools, processes, and marketing potential available in this rapidly expanding segment of the Internet:

Who is engaged in social media, and why
What are the key tools are to cultivate your online presence
Where you can find tools to increase your productivity and reach
Why social networking is the hottest trend today
How the face of journalism is rapidly changing

And most importantly…

How you can be a part of the global conversation

I really enjoyed Make New Media Work for You. I consider myself somewhat Internet savvy but learned about new social media options I had no idea about. The book truly simplifies the spider web of social media and clearly explains the “whys” and “hows” of getting started with it, kicking it up a notch, and making it work for me without making my head hurt.
