4. Send an article or Letter to the Editor to your local paper

Target the smaller local or community papers in your area. These papers are often hungry for timely, relevant information and getting published can help establish you as the trusted resource for LTCI in your area.

Customize either the Feature Article or Letter to the Editor with your contact info, include the local costs of care and submit it to your paper.

 

5. Share a one-page reprint from a trusted consumer magazine

Consumer Reports created a great piece entitled “Don’t wait to plan for long term care“. This article quickly and easily addresses the basic questions consumers have about long-term care.  Email a link to the article, or print off and include in your November mailings.
