Another Speaking Session

Women's Media Summit

I was again honored to be invited to speak by Heidi Richards for her Women's Media Summit in October (you can listen free below).

Only this time, I was in the company of experts in newspapers, magazines, television, radio and Internet media. The multi-day virtual event featured interviews, workshops and networking led by some of the world's most talented names in public relations and media marketing.

And then there was me - the only non-expert in the bunch...well, at least when it comes to traditional media. I seem to have shown some real expertise at talking to the Universe - or perhaps my expertise is getting it to listen :-)

The session relates to the media journey of Marilyn Jenett Locations, my special event location and production company of two decades, which is the subject of my entrepreneurial memoir. For those who may not have read the story yet...

With no publicist, PR or marketing resources, and using only the prosperity principles that I teach today and the “Universe as my publicist,” I manifested a cover feature story in the Los Angeles Times that attracted thousands of telephone calls for years and syndication around the world via Associated Press. This was followed by local and national prime time television segments and continuing media exposure, including the first article I ever wrote that grossed $250,000 for my business!

So again, you can find my bio and session description at the Summit link, but I will copy the Session Description here. I had to really get creative with this introduction to take my place among those industry notables:

"Let the Universe Be Your Guide - Using the Laws of Attraction
to Get Major Media Coverage"

Imagine this scenario for a moment...

You have made the bold decision to become an entrepreneur and start your own business. You know that you have to find a way to get the word out and get exposure to attract clients. But you have no experience in public relations, marketing or publicity. You don't know anyone in these fields and even if you did, well...the budget isn't there. The only thing on your side is your business idea and the prosperity principles that you have been studying which brought you this far and gave you the confidence to take this step.

A couple of months later, you see yourself in a feature cover story in the Los Angeles Times. Then publications around the nation and world call you to request more photos after you discover that Associated Press released the story. Television and radio stations call. You receive thousands of phone calls and the clients are coming and your business is on the map! You continue to attract unsolicited media exposure over time, but then one day a business publication calls to sell you advertising. You tell them that you don't advertise but ask if you can write an article for their paper. So you write your very first article and it grosses $250,000 for your business!

Your "15 minutes of fame" turns into a 20-year career during which you attract the world's largest corporations as clients. You still don't know anything about public relations, publicity or marketing.

This was Marilyn Jenett's story. In this session, she'll share details on how she did it using principles she now teaches in her Feel Free to Prosper program. You'll meet your master publicist - the Universe!

Following is the link where you can listen to my interview session. Please note that on the date I was originally scheduled to speak, I had lost my voice due to the unusually dry Southern California air, so we rescheduled for the following week. My voice is still a bit hoarse, but improves as the interview goes on...
