Contact a Celebrity
2014/04/16 6:00 AM
Are you thinking of contacting a celebrity? It’s not as hard as you might think……..perhaps intimidating….. but not that hard. If you are considering this, you might want to check out this interview I did with Jordan McAuley who owns Contact Any Celebrity – he gives a lot of insight. Having a celeb that you can “brag” about is very cool and can really give you fuel for more PR and possible TV exposure too.
I also wrote a few blog posts that might give you some inspiration as well.

If you have already claimed some celebs as “fans” – I’d love to know so I can say Bravo!

Claudia says: Hello Sarah! I've tried donig the celeb gifting but I have had no luck. Is there an easier way to keep track of the tabloid photos to see if they have worn what you sent them?
Hi Caludia,
Bummer that you have had a difficult time. You can make a google alert for the celeb…or just keep after their gatekeepers too. Also – once you know they "have" it, I'd go for it and sprad the word without a photo of them wearing it.
But I am a risk taker too. That is not everyones style.
Sarah

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.

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.
