Check your guest list and check it twice to see who may be naughty and nice to crash it! Better yet observe your guest to see if they just look the part to be on your holiday party list!

If Looks Could Kill? Michaele and Tareq Salahi were able to crash a high security dinner at the White House on Tuesday night dressed to die for. A stunning blonde dressed in a red and gold sari and accompanied by her tux-wearing husband.

It took only minutes for the couple to crash the party, once a Marine announced their names they were mingling with 300 other elite guests for cocktails in the East Room before heading for the dinner tent on the South Lawn.

I guess the theory still holds true, just look the part!

Holding Out on Luxury Inventory a Smart PR Move or Bad Publicity

2009-11-21T10:32:00.001-05:00

The word is out and luxury retailers are shortening luxury inventory purposely. The plan is to make luxury consumers want luxury through exclusivity from not having access to it. Tables are turning, luxury consumers stopped buying luxury first and in efforts to win them back luxury retailers started discounting inventory with easy access.

Luxury stores are starting trim inventory and discounts. Which I said from day one, SALE is a bad four letter word for luxury. The perception of luxury is what luxury brands will need to focus on and how to connect with luxury consumers.

Do you think that holding out on luxury inventory is a smart PR move or bad publicity?

Celebrity Branding Shakeup, Heidi Klum Changes Last Name to Samuel

2009-11-21T09:46:00.003-05:00

Everybody knows who Heidi Klum is but Heidi Klum is no more! Klum has officially changed her last name to Samuel the surname of Seal. However, Seal only went by Seal and no one in the world knows who Seal Samuel is either.

So Heidi Klum is now Heidi Samuel?? How will this impact her celebrity brand? Well, I predict that we will start to see more high profile celebrity couples make the same moves.

Congrats to Heidi for knowing the power of her celebrity brand appeal and shaking things up. Looks like the Samuels will be making some big moves in 2010!

PR Advice to Win Social Media Admirers Who Follow But Not Following

2009-11-20T11:54:00.001-05:00

Did you know you might have a secret social media admirer? In fact you might have hundreds and maybe even thousands of social media admirers. So how do you get hidden fans to become friends and followers? How do you get secret social media admirers to toot that they are friends and followers, the ultimate stamp of approval.

Give Back

Secret social media admirers sometimes don’t want to reveal their identity. Often they may feel that they are competitors for a product or service that you offer. I follow plus also friend competitors and often even promote what they have to say in social media. The reason being is because in social media I want to give back and be the expert authority on my subject matters. Winning potential customers, clients, referrals, etc by keeping them informed.

Communicate Back

Often a social media admirer may be trying to connect with you but stop short of becoming a friend or follower because you are not communicating back. Thank those who comment about you on their Facebook page or send out a Tweet on Twitter. This will sure win their affection to openly become a friend and follower.

Follow Back

You may also be a secret social media admirer and NOT even know it! If you find someone engaging, encouraging, informative, etc make them a friend and follow them.

The Oprah Announcement and Biggest Day in Media

2009-11-20T09:56:00.003-05:00

We have all been touched some way or another by the Oprah effect. How many times have you heard someone say, “I Saw It on Oprah”? Certainly, no one can debate that Oprah Winfrey is the Queen of Media for all time. A self made brand, proving that with hard work dreams no matter how big can come true.

Just as with everything when it comes to timing, all good things must come to an end. The thought of NO Oprah lives me speechless! However, the Queen of Media will announce to her audience and fans that TODAY she plans to end “The Oprah Winfrey Show” expected to be sometime in 2011 after 25 seasons.

Oprah plans to tell us about what the future holds for her. One thing for sure, this is an Oprah special that no one wants to miss. This is history, the biggest day in media.

Update to follow… Stay tuned.

The Secret To Make Oprah Winfrey Notice Your Small Business In A Recession

2009-11-17T13:40:00.003-05:00

This is a follow up article to the original article that I wrote over two years ago. The first article was titled “The Secret To Make Oprah Winfrey Call About Your Small Business” which was released on several popular article websites. Additionally, the same article has been picked up and published on tons and tons of websites and blogs.

So what is different about how-to get a phone call from Oprah today for your small business? One call from Oprah could still be the biggest promotional endorsement of a lifetime! However, a lot of things have changed in two years; mainly the economy is in a slump. Much of the advice that I gave is still consistent to land on Oprah’s couch to chat about your small business.

In my first article I educated small businesses about why Oprah Winfrey would be interested in their business model. As I stressed Oprah Winfrey is self made and she loves businesses with strong story lines attached. What is different today is that the storyline about your business must be newsworthy matched to what the media considers is newsworthy. You must be able to capture media attention from different outlets; local newspapers, blogs, magazines, etc.

I focused small businesses on the importance of creating local news from their unique business niches and approaches. This is the solution to make Oprah find you first by standing out in the crowd. As I related, after all she will never take your calls no matter how many times you call!

While the examples I gave were two years ago, they could very well be used today. “Local Realtors should offer niche services that will gather local press attention. An example would be to hold a seminar on how to help baby boomers solve housing problems. Find a niche that makes your business standout and pitch it for media attention. A Bankruptcy Attorney could hold a free seminar on how to reorganize debt keying in on national crisis like stopping foreclosures, etc.”

Two years ago I listed only press releases as a little known secret to make Oprah find small businesses. Press releases are still powerful tools to create publicity and attract Oprah; today social media is just as powerful. Sites such as Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, Youtube etc. can generate enough publicity to make the Queen of Media Oprah Winfrey call about your small business.

You likely clicked on this article because it presented a solution for something you want. It may have even been forwarded to you from a trusted referral or source. However you received this article it was by no accident and I would like to teach you how to generate the exact same interest in your small business.

Today I am offering my system to help small businesses seeking to capture media attention to grow their businesses.

Get Ready Luxury Real Estate Home Sales Bouncing Back

2009-11-11T12:49:00.003-05:00

Good news for the luxury real estate market just in time for Christmas. While many luxury home builders have been struggling to attract luxury home buyers, Toll Brothers Inc may have found the formula. According to Toll Brothers the largest U.S. luxury home builder they have gained as much as 14% in New York after orders surged 42%.

Bloomberg reports, Net contracts climbed to 765 in the three months through October from 539 a year earlier and the cancellation rate dropped to 6.9 percent from 30.2 percent, Horsham, Pennsylvania- based Toll said in a statement yesterday. The shares jumped $2.23 to $20.62 at 9:52 a.m., the biggest gain since Aug. 12.

“Those marketing luxury real estate need to start investing in publicity equity to build credibility. Typically, luxury real estate marketers have focused on mostly advertising over public relations. Toll Brothers remains smart about their luxury PR strategies and planning approach,” stated CR Cataunya Ransom, Lead Publicist of Mosnar Communications, Inc.

Toll focused on reducing unsold inventory and increasing cash to weather the housing recession. The median price for a new U.S. home was $204,800 in September after declining from a record high of $262,600 in March 2007, according to the Census Bureau.

“The surprise was more on the upside,” said David Goldberg, an analyst with UBS Securities LLC in New York. “They did better than we thought.”

Toll stands to gain a bigger market share as smaller rivals struggle to secure financing for new construction, said Goldberg, who rates the shares “buy.”

Gabrielle Union and Brooke Hogan Speak Out Against Gang Rape

2009-11-11T09:42:00.004-05:00

It is important to me to use my voice as a power blogger and PR professional to bring attention to issues of significant importance to the public at large. Often mainstream media neglects to spotlight certain issues and focus on other media too long.

As a mother the recent GANG RAPE of a 15 year old teen in Richmond, California has me outraged!!! Teen individuals can stand by laughing and watching a young girl become brutally raped??? We should all be outraged with the worst rage to draw media attention and make a huge difference to stop this malice behavior.

Global Grind is enforcing a strong push to highlight celebrities that are also outraged by this violent assault. While they could be focused on only the leading story lines that mainstream media finds interest, Global Grind is seeking to bring awareness to make a real difference.

Actress Gabrielle Union

“When I was 19 years old, I was raped. I was working at a shoe store in California, and the store was robbed. The person robbing the store ended up putting a gun to my head and raping me. As he was raping me, I felt as though I was floating over myself, thinking, 'This isn't happening.' I blanked out and had an out-of-body experience, like I was hovering above seeing this ¬horrible thing happen to someone else...not me. I was fortunate enough to go the UCLA rape crisis center after this horrific ordeal. It gave me my life back. My dignity and self-esteem were gone and they helped me find them again. That’s why I now lobby for state legislatures across the country and the federal government to help raise funds and awareness for rape crisis centers, and I speak to all different kinds of people across the country about what happened to me. My goal is to never hear the words ‘me too’ from someone after I say ‘I was raped.”

Singer/ Actress/ Model Brooke Hogan

“We need to be focusing on teaching our youth that its actually COOL to protect and stand up for your peers. That it only makes you look like a total dumbass when you hurt other people with ANY kind of abuse. We need to be raising awareness about safe sex, respecting our bodies, respecting our souls, and respecting any form of life around us. WE, the adults, need to be leading by EXAMPLE. I have nothing more to say. I am outraged and I am praying for this young girl and her family.”

Supermodel Jessica White

“I was 15 years old when I was abused as well. Now 10 years later, at 25, I have been delivered from my pain. This is a long journey so again if there is anything that I can do for you please contact me as I'm your biggest fan.”

Elizabeth Lambert PR Crisis Cleanup or Sincere Apology

2009-11-10T13:41:00.002-05:00

This is unbelievable, watching this young girl Elizabeth Lambert in action. Clearly she has been able to get away with this type of violent behavior before and why she continues to behave this way. Is she now sincerely sorry because she got caught or really sorry for her bad behavior in the PR spotlight?

One thing for sure, this young girl needs some major PR crisis intervention. The media is going crazy with this story and has resulted in some really bad publicity for her school. I recommend that Elizabeth do a sit down forum with every girl she assaulted in this video. They need to bring in some key athletes to participate and put a stop to this behavior before it blows out of control.

Yes, Elizabeth deserves a second chance! She really does because somewhere she learned that this was acceptable. Remember behavior is taught… Let’s undo this negative training and cheer Elizabeth on for a good clean game.

Britney Spears Lip Syncing GOOD Bad Publicity

2009-11-09T17:18:00.001-05:00

Is Britney Spears as a brand dead in Australia? None the least! The bad publicity that Britney is receiving around her Circus tour is driving more interest in Britney as a brand. Remember Britney has built a sustainable celebrity brand around bad PR; bad PR brings tons of media attention for Brit.

It has never been a real big secret that Britney is likely to perform to lip-syncing over live performances. Why is Britney being blasted for lip-syncing now? The percentage of Britney’s fans that walked out on her Australian performance is low compared to those who stayed and enjoyed the show.

As for politicians in some Australian states that are seeking to pass laws to have music promoters disclose if the performance will be live or lip-synced, smart PR move or Britney hating?
