Special Reports Position You as an Expert

Special reports can be one of the easiest and most profitable ways to gain visibility and position yourself as an expert. Everyone has knowledge about something that is of interest to others. What you need to do is find out what is of interest to your customers and potential customers.

You can easily turn your knowledge into a special report offered for free on your website or through direct mail. Basically, a special report is a multi-page document packed with valuable how-to information that readers can use immediately.

Offering any type of information positions you as an expert. The key is to make sure the information is timely and useful.

Brainstorm with key people to determine several topics you could write reports on. Send a series of four to six to keep your name and knowledge fresh in people's minds. Be sure to include contact information at the end of the report.
