The old saying is that “Content is King.” The new truth is that content is still critical, but conversation is king.
So many people think, if they have a fantastic product, or story, or invention, and they put it up on the web, they can sit back and watch the visitors flock to their home page. You know, if you build it, they will come.
Yeah. Not so much.
First, your completing with 4 billion other websites for the consumer’s attention. Second, see the first comment. How are people supposed to find you? Especially if you’ve created something they don’t even know they might want, like a new book?
You may have written the next million seller, but if people don’t know you or your product exist they will never see page one.
You have to go find your buyer now. You can’t wait for them to come to you, the initiative is in your hands. It’s no longer “if you build it they will come,” it’s now “if you build it you’ll sit around growing old with a living room full of your own books and no one will know to ring the doorbell​.”
