Change The Game
2012/11/08 6:00 AM
As the year comes to a close, I like to look at my business from all sides and angles. The main goal is to find what was successful, and do more of it, but also to figure out where I am lacking so I can turn it around as fast as possible…….yes I can lack too!
I often use this chart with my VIP clients to help them overcome big obstacles and want to share this with you so you can grow too.
Simply follow the directions and take action. In order to be successful you need to be willing (and really want) to fix the broken things, or the challenges that are getting in your way to be as successful as you desire.
If you know that getting products to celebs will help you, but you feel scared or reticent, then write that down and take a stand to do what ever you are afraid of doing to get it to them.
If calling 3 stores a day is a challenge for you, then figure out who is going to do it for you and put that into play immediately!
If understanding what magazine editors are looking for each month is too difficult for you, then make a decision to ask the right person to advise you.
Getting the idea now???? OK your turn. Love to know what you come up with so leave me comments……. you never know who will give you the right answer!

Pitch holiday gift guides
The time is approaching to pitch holiday gift guides over the next 6-8 weeks.
I know, I know, it’s only June, but Holiday Gift Guide submissions are starting now…….so get on it sister, as it will end in July.
This can be a great way to get into magazines that might be more challenging for you in the “everyday” editorial world.
Gift guides often put in items that appeal to their audience, but might not have a good place in the monthly magazines.
Magazines try to appeal to a broad audience with the holiday gift guides, so I would suggest being bold about your choices. Here is what you’ll want to do…

Chad and his partners started DIFF by selling sunglasses at music festivals to get a sense of their target market before doing the deep dive into creating and manufacturing their own unique brand.
Once they created their own designs, getting products to celebrities and the media was not too difficult and the brand quickly took off. Leveraging the media exposure, they were able to build an online business that has donated over 1 million pair of glasses to those in need.

How to know if you have a hero or a zero — Sarah Shaw Consulting
How to know if you have a hero or a zero by testing your product before you invest heavily in producing it. Don't keep it a secret, show it to get feedback.Did I ever share that my Grandmother made this coat for JFK Jr.? Jackie was a frequent shopper in her store in New York City. This ended up on the cover of LIFE magazine. Her shop became famous.
