Getting a journalist to write about your business is a thrilling accomplishment – but it’s not the only way to get your name in the press.

Countless media outlets (including top national ones) accept contributor articles or guest posts from people like you – business owners and leaders with valuable expertise to share.

Below is a list of ten such outlets – each focused on some area of business – along with links to submission guidelines for each outlet.

Before submitting a contributor article or guest post, familiarize yourself with the outlet you’re targeting. Think about what their audience wants, and how you’re uniquely equipped to help them.

Also, take time to read through the outlet’s submission guidelines carefully. Each outlet has different preferences and requirements, both for the process of submission and for the type and style of content they accept.

Happy writing!
