In a recent article by Sean D’Souza in the New Zealand Herald, Sean talks about methods for promoting a business. You can see from the excerpt below that he sets the situation up to direct your attention toward article marketing.
He wants you to ask yourself, if you could do nothing else BUT article marketing, could you do it?
So… Can you?
Imagine you were to start up an internet-based business. And told that to promote your business, you would not be allowed to do any affiliate marketing. Or joint ventures. Or any external publicity. No Twitter, no Facebook, no social media. No pay-per-click advertising. No search engine optimisation.
All you had was one weapon: the ability to promote your business through article writing alone. Would that be possible? You guessed the answer, didn’t you? You instantly knew that it is indeed possible to drop all of the possible strategies you see online, and still generate enormous traffic – and revenue – through article writing alone.

In this article, Sean talks about how he got started and that it didn’t happen overnight. We all have to be prepared to build a long lasting business that’s built on a solid foundation. And one of those foundations come from GREAT ARTICLES. He goes on to discus how a great article could take people on incredible journeys. Not only that he discusses all the places you get your article distributed. And he’s not talking about standard article marketing either.
Sean has built an amazing business without the need for affiliates, joint ventures, or publicity. He has put in the hard work and dedication to build a business and brand for himself. Ultimately, the answer to the original question “Does Sean D’Souza think article marketing is dead?” The answer is NO.
In my opinion, article marketing is what has given Sean the ability to live the internet lifestyle. If you’d like to read more about Sean, you can visit his website http://www.psycotactics.com.
