Payment for Stories – How Much Can You Earn?

We send your story to all the newspapers and magazines to get you the very best price. We guarantee that if you sell your story to a magazine or newspaper through National Story you won’t earn less than £200.

In practice, payments are often much more than this. Whilst the average payment for a feature in a magazine or newspaper is between £200 to £500, this can go up much more.

If many magazines or newspapers are interested in buying your story you may earn between £1000 and £2000 for selling your story. Many people also manage to make between £1500 and £2000 by selling their story to a newspaper and a magazine.

They might also appear on TV. If your story is particularly sought after and likely to make front page news in a national UK newspaper, your payment could soar up to as much as £10,000 or even more. These are high value stories and need expert management and in these cases you will be referred to our media and publicity agent.

Maximise Payment for your Story

National Story will always try to sell your story to as many publications as possible to maximise your payments. Syndicating stories in this way is a specialist business but is something we deal in every day.
