Sell my story: How to sell my story

how it works

Selling your story to a newspaper or magazine can seem an intimidating process - but it needn't be. Our team of journalists will guide you through the process from start to finish. You will have complete control over where your story is printed. The basic process can be broken down into four easy steps:

1. Contact Us

You can fill out the contact form opposite or get in touch by phone or email. One of our journalists will then get back to you to discuss your story and options. We don't ask for all the details straight away - we just need an outline of your story to get the ball rolling. It's a totally pressure-free process and we will only proceed when you are ready.

2. The Deal

Our team will then approach the appropriate publications to find the best place and best possible price for your story. We'll keep you informed every step of the way and let you know your options. Once you have received an offer you are happy with, you will be asked to sign a contract. This guarantees you payment and also guarantees exclusitivity to your chosen publication.

3. The Interview

Our interviews are carried out informally, either in person or over the phone at a time that suits you. Similarly, if we need to take pictures then one of our photographers will arrange a visit at your convenience.

4. The Finished Story

Once the story is written, it will be read back to you to make sure you are happy. If you're not, then we will work together to make the necessary changes. Once you are satisfied it is sent over to the newspaper or magazine for publication.

And finally...

Sit back and wait for the money to roll in! You could earn £2,000 or more for a double-page spread in a newspaper but the sky's the limit. We can often place a story in a second publication after it has first appeared - meaning more money for you.

We could even get you on the GMTV sofa, chatting to Fern and Phil on This Morning, or live on the Trisha show. We are in daily contact with the top lifestyle shows and news teams at the BBC, ITV, and Sky.

As you can see, Sell Us Your Story.com makes it easy to get the publicity you want and takes the worry away. And because we are independent - and therefore not tied to a single publication - we will shop around to find you the best deal.
