Great Tips Sarah! I did many of these when we launched. I launched with an eBay store and a Blog … both of which I built myself with just a little bit of tech savvy. Then I became a Socialite. Through my SmartyLA tribe, I learned how to Facebook, Twitter and Blog. Which led to my launch party with key influencers that I still collaborate with today. Which led to working with A-list makeup artists. Then I did a celebrity gifting campaign. And all of the above led to the serving the likes of Kim Kardashian, Carrie Underwood, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Cindy Crawford, CW’s Vampire Diaries, MTV, Disneyland Resorts and Harpo Productions.

All started with an eBay store and a blog. Of course I knew that our manufacturing and fulfillment structure was very strong … so I could really focus on building the brand and creating relationships with key influencers in my market.

Tks Sarah! good tips!

I think I am going to give the video a try. I think it is shown that people do sit and watch a video and making it fun tip.

+ making a connection with people the organic way. And I think people forgot to mention HARO to find free P.R.

cheers
