  • how to navigate every step of the process to land travel content marketing work, including phone calls and proposals
  • how to keep your hourly rate down so your bank account goes up
  • how to get work done on the road
  • how to write, step-by-step, 15 different types of travel articles

You can grab access to all of our past webinars (and a ton of other resources you can’t find anywhere else) with a subscription to our Dream Buffet or grab them one-by-one when you need them in our On-Demand Webinar Library for a set with the video, audio, transcript, and slides.

But we also air a free replay of one of our travel writing classes each and every weekday.

Each weekday at 2pm PST / 5pm EST / 10pm GMT / 11pm CET (and 9am AEDT Tues-Sat), we show one webinar from our archives, rotating though all of them over the course of four months.

Here’s what we’ve got for you this week:

Monday, February 18, 5pm EST: Getting a Spot on a Group Fam or Press Trip

In the past few webinars, we’ve looked at the basic tenets of sponsored travel and how to piece together an individual sponsored trip.

In this webinar, we focused on group familiarization and press trips, which primarily come out of tourism boards and PR agencies, but can also appear in other surprising places. We look at where to find these trips and best practices for applying for them.

Tuesday, February 19, 5pm EST: Putting Together a Pitch Portfolio to Support a Big Trip

In this webinar, we walk through several press trip itineraries to show who and what to pitch to set up a varied portfolio of coverage for each trip. We discuss five techniques you can use to ensure an impressive pitch portfolio to accompany any press trip request, and how to handle this process whether you’ve never been published and have no connections or have editors that you work with already but perhaps want to branch out to a new subject or geographic area.

Wednesday, February 20, 5pm EST: How to Prepare for Your Press Trips

In the previous webinar, we looked in detail about all of the things that you need to clarify expectations on before your press trip (including several recommendations of how to handle requests for itinerary changes, additional nights, and flights).

In this webinar, we look more about the story side of pre-trip preparation, including how to break your trip into stories, what is safe to pitch based on a limited itinerary or destination you’re not familiar with, and how to handle the catch-22 of pitching when you haven’t yet been accepted on a trip.

Thursday, February 21, 5pm EST: How to Get the Most (On the Ground) Out of Your Press Trips

In past webinars, especially those on breaking your trips into pitches, we often discuss the different major types of articles that you should be looking out for when you’re on the road.

But you often ask me for examples of these types of articles, how to pitch them, and how to write them. This week, we’re going to do an overview to start your creative juices flowing.

Friday, February 22, 5pm EST: Triple your Travel Writing Income Writing for Magazines

For years naysayers have claimed that there is no money to be made in the magazine industry, the fact is that magazines still pay significantly better than websites–and there’s many more opportunities to write about travel for print magazines than you realize. Sleek, well-paying, new travel magazines are actually popping up every week. You just need to know where to find them.
