Revealed: How I Get My Blog on Local Papers

My recent Best KK Food post has attracted many attention.

After I published that post, I sent email to several local-ads advertising and magazine, check out if they are interested in this post. I hope to get their attention so I have better chances to expose myself to larger readers.

One local ads paper gave me a call.

“Hey, come over to our office, let’s work things out”

I went to their office next day and had a discussion—I got myself a half page exclusives on local-ads paper, where I was told the paper will be printed 40,000 copies and distributed around Sabah.

I am going to be famous, wooohoooooooo

What I’ve learn

If you want something, you have to take action. Fear is something that holds us doing great things. Screw it, just do it.

I, want to become millionaire by 30. I will achieve this target while sipping coffee at Starbucks and party hard over weekends
