Say YES to Media Requests

That was the theme of my remarks and activities for the WBIS (Women Building & Investing in Success) luncheon on Thursday, August 11th.

Time is a concern, especially for solopreneurs and other small business owners. However, time can be used as a way of handling fear or discomfort about being "in the media." Take some time to make sure time is the real issue. If not, say YES the next time you get an opportunity to be in the media.

Here is a short video with a few of the tips I shared during the WBIS luncheon about ways to make yourself more comfortable once you've decided to say YES to a media request.
