How can I find publishers to work with?

Hey Warriors!
I've been working with adnetworks and practiced monetizing different kind of traffic from alot of sources, and now a new challenge popped up and I need your help.
I developed a Revenue Share platform, that uses web push notifications widget to monetize the traffic of any website, even when the users are no longer on the website.
The platform is up and running, working, and the new barrier i've come across is finding the first several websites/blogs to work with.
Do you have any ideas or suggestions on how can I find the first publishers to work with?
Thanks alot in advance!

    Build friendships with bloggers apps by helping them without asking for anything in return. Comment genuinely on their blog. Promote them on social media.

    Some of these bloggers become your friends. Then, these friends find your opportunity and promote it. Neat how that works, eh?

      Thanks,
      But I really don't have the time to connect with each and every publisher i come across, can I? My niche is Revenue sharing, when most of the revenues goes to the publisher, so my question is where (and if) there's a platform that enables me to find publishers interested in using this technology to raise their income (so far we see doubling, sometimes tripling a website total revenues), Thanks!

        The voice of reason and common-sense. I guess it just comes down to whether you choose to run a real business or an online fan club. :-)

          Not sure about your intention with this. I run a real buisness, which is already making alot of money from push notification monetization. part of my expansion plan is to reach as much publishers as possible, and present them with the opportunity to work with this platform.
          Yes, this platform will benefit me, but from the publisher's perspective, that's an amazing deal, they integrate a widget in their website, I do all the work concerning monetization of this traffic, and they get almost all the revenues from this. It does not effect any revenue stream that's already been integrated with the website, and after integration there's only benefits for the publisher, including sending push notifications to offline users.
          So please, if you can be a little more elaborate with your answer

            I was confirming your observation that you can't be "making friends" with every publisher on the Internet, in order to promote your wares.

            Sorry if that didn't come through.

    1 way: you network on social media. It will take lots of time but if you do everything right, you'll each the goal.
    2 way: you write to every blog in your niche and wait for their reply. In this case you need to have a really compelling propoisition.

      Can you be alittle more specific? I really am struggling with this issue, my offer really is compelling, just add a widget to your site and get paid monthly for the traffic we do all the work to monetize. the question is - where do i find a platform that allows me to throw that pitch to people that really are relevant and have the ability to make that decision?

        Why wouldn't you start with a WSO on this very platform in order to demonstrate your proof of concept? Who better to present it to than a bunch of jaded marketers who have heard every promise in the book, yet are still willing to give most things, if presented intelligently and honestly, a fair shot. Surely there are some here that meet your target market.

        You need to start somewhere. This is as good a place as any, if not better than most.

    If I were you, I would start by putting my app in the hands of as many publishers as possible (and in different niches) for free. In return, you ask for their analysis, evaluations, performance records, and comments after a certain length of time.


    Take the best feedback and incorporate it into your marketing. Where problems or deficiencies are pointed out . . . fix them all.


    Have a sales page written by a top copywriter and offer your product in places where publishers will see it. How do you find those places? It's simple . . .


    Use Google and the other top search engines and perform your market research to identify forums, authority sites, portals, top traffic blogs, etc in the online publishing marketplace.


    Is this work? Yes. Is it hard to do? No.



    Does it take long? No - maybe 1/2 day of effort.


    What does it cost to do market research? Nothing.


    Anyone who doesn't include such research into their chosen marketplace prior to setting up a business or product or service . . . is just asking for failure from the get-go.


    Good luck,


    Steve
