Summary from the TLDR Marketing newsletter

Build a targeted list of sites that accept guest posts and verify their quality. Find the right contacts using LinkedIn and email tools. Choose between generic or hyper-personalized outreach based on list size and goals. Research topics that fit each site's editorial focus using keyword gap analysis and propose several options. Craft skimmable emails with strong subject lines and follow-ups, then send at optimal days and times. Run A/B tests to refine your approach, and focus on delivering high-quality content while promoting it to build lasting relationships with editors for ongoing opportunities.
