We will review 8 different ways you can promote a person, product or firm here on www.MHMSM.com

1. Featured Articles Writer's Submission Guidelines:

1. There are no real word limits, we have authors who do articles from 300 to 3000 words. They first key is to keep the content industry relevant. Good, well written copy for our readers = Good PR for you and your firm. We believe in a 'win-win' approach! We also believe in a solution orientation to problems, if you see an issue or challenge you want to address, please propose a reasonable solution and your thinking for that solution.


2. We do welcome and encourage the following:


• Head and shoulder photo of the author - readers like to 'see' who wrote the article.


• When appropriate, we welcome photos, graphics and charts that illustrate the article. One of the tremendous advantages of an Online Trade Journal (Ezine) like ours is that photos and graphics can be freely used.


3. Please provide a suggested Title and your name will be on the by line under the title. At the end of the article, provide a brief bio. Your company's name, website and your contact info are welcome (including phone and email, as you wish).


4. We welcome and encourage a variety of viewpoints. We also encourage avoiding profanity or any remark that might appear disparaging of another firm, person, product etc. that is part of the factory built housing Industry. As the old saying goes, "You catch more flies with honey than vinegar." This policy will help you win more people to your viewpoint. Naturally, we have the right to edit content.


5. While you can submit an outline for consideration, once an outline is written it is almost as easy to finish writing the article and save time on both ends.
6. Feature articles should be submitted 10 days or more prior to the next issue. Our issues at present 'go live' near the middle of the month. So if you submit an article on the 1st, it is likely to be published by the 10th.

Please submit your articles to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Please be sure that "Proposed Article for MHMSM.com" appears in the subject line.

2. Industry Voices Blog Submission Guidelines

• The same guidelines as for Featured Articles applies to submissions for the Industry Voices blog. The Industry Voices blog is a place for your opinions as well as news. Think of it as an online "Letters to the Editor" - your Op-Ed column - often for 'time sensitive' issues and doesn't have to wait for our monthly issue. Well written Industry Voices posts can be posted within 24 hours may be highlighted in our emailings to thousands of readers weekly.


• While our INDUSTRY VOICES writers are allowed to share their company name and some basic info, the proposed post must be a news or opinion type item of industry relevance, not an advertisement.


• Visit the Industry Voices blog for an idea of what we have published and what type of items we are looking for.

Please submit your Industry Voices posts to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Please be sure that "Proposed Industry Voices post for MHMSM.com" appears in the subject line.

3. "Cup of Coffee" Submission Guidelines

• A "Cup of Coffee with…" is a great opportunity for industry professionals to introduce themselves to a wider audience of colleagues and have their voices heard on a few issues of importance.


• A "Cup of Coffee with…" interview uses a format of a series of questions about you and the industry that you answer.


• These interviews are then published (subject to editorial approval) in a regular issue of MHMSM.com.


• A few examples of these interviews are ones we've published by Thayer Long, Jamie Hammons and Doug Gorman.

If you want to be considered for a Cup of Coffee with… interview, please email editor Tony Kovach, and put 'My Cup of Coffee' in the subject line. Then share a bit about yourself, like your Linkedin connection, brief bio on your website, etc. and we can create your interview from there.

4. Press Release Submission Guidelines

1. Must be a "news" type item, not an advertisement.


2. Should be submitted in "Press Release" format. For an example of how a Press Release should be formatted, see Formatting Press Releases.

Please submit your Press Releases to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Please be sure that "Proposed Press Release for MHMSM.com" appears in the subject line.

5. Photo Gallery Submission Guidelines

Photos may be submitted for inclusion in our Photo Gallery.

1. Photos should be of sufficient quality to meet journalistic standards.


2. Photos will be displayed in a format that will allow users of 1024x768 resolution to view the photo in our "lightbox" software without scrolling. That means a maximum height of 500 pixels. You may submit larger photos, but we will re-size them as required.


3. Photo sets may be captioned with your and your company's information and a brief description of what is in the photograph.


4. Please see our Photo Gallery for examples of the type and quality of photos and what type captioning we use.

Please submit your Photo Gallery images to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Please be sure that "Proposed Photo Gallery images for MHMSM.com" appears in the subject line.

6. People and Promotions Submission Guidelines

• For for information about submitting your company's People and Promotions news, please visit the People and Promotions page on this website, where you can download a form to make your submission easier.

7. If you want to submit an item for our INspirations Blog (photo, video, quotations or other written or multi-media items), please keep the following in mind:

• Give proper credits for photos, videos, quotations, etc.
• Don't just send some internet item without checking it out. Please send the link to an item such as the Iwo Jima item and make sure it is a real source. Even if an item is inspirational, we want it to be accurate not junk. Please send the link to any proof of authenticity that may be available.
• Provide your name, company name or website, and if you like, your title.
• If you are on Linkedin, we recommend you include your Linkedin.com profile link. Example: http://www.linkedin.com/in/latonykovach
• Please email a submission like those you see into: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it with INspirations Blog Submission in the subject line.
• Thank you and please spread the good word to others!

8. Naturally, we accept advertising too. We have opportunities for posting jobs, for classified ads, for banner/display ads, stand alone pages such as the one that MHI has on our website, or opportunities to be a part of our ever growing numbers (well over 12,000 Industry Pros weekly!) who receive and see our emailings. While our numbers are always growing, you can get a sense of that growth from charts posted at the following blog post:

The bottom line is this. From Executives to rank and file, from association leaders to you, right now - you are not alone here! The opportunities abound here and they are growing constantly.
