07 May 2008 AMOM Day 4: Send out the Rejects

Let’s go over the Inbox today. Usually, when a rejection arrives, I send off the idea immediately to another editor. But despite my best intentions, that doesn’t always happen. Sometimes, I’m on a busy spree and don’t get around to finding a new market. Sometimes, I just don’t want to think about the fact that brilliant magazine doesn’t want to buy my equally brilliant idea. And sometimes, I lose faith in the idea itself.

You probably do the same.

Go over your Inbox for the past few months and pull out the ideas that came back rejected but you never got around to re-marketing.

Do that today. Send them out. All of them.
