                                Specializing In Publicity For Film Premieres
===================================================================
                                         Press Release 

For immediate release:

Date: 01/12/10

Here is an interesting topic you might want to do a story about...  It is a field of opportunity that most show biz hopefuls don't have a clue about.

                                                *******************

If you are an actor, singer, model etc. living in Los Angeles, here is some important information for you to be aware of and can benefit from greatly. 

Whether you are interested in becoming a “STAR” or at the very least becoming well known enough within the industry that you work regularly, your talent is important but there are many highly talented people, who are out there trying to get their foot in the door, they are struggling to pay the bills each month and they will never rise above their situation because they don’t know how to get the media to notice them and write about them so the general public comes to know them. 

So far, I have done publicity for 19 Red Carpet Film Premieres during the past four years. I've noticed that many creative types are unaware of how to best utilize the red carpet and the related opportunities.  First of all, you need to know how to get invited to red carpet events.  Once you are at a red carpet event, you should know there is much more involved than simply walking past the cameras and waving. With the proper knowledge, you will know how to best utilize the publicity and networking opportunities related to it, which can be a huge boost to an anyone’s career. It is all about mindset and strategy. 

The media coverage (usually including reporters, photographers and video crews) provides a tremendous opportunity for actors/models/singers who walk the red carpet. If one knows what to do and say one could end up being seen by millions of people and come to the attention of top industry VIPs, those people who have the power to hire you and write big checks. 

The small percentage of people in our industry who receive lots of press coverage understand the strategy and they know the "secrets" of (1) how to find out about red carpet events that are coming up, (2) how to get invited (3) having the media notice them.  If you aren’t at a position in the industry where you can afford four thousands dollars a month for publicist, (the average monthly fee), you should attend our "Red Carpet Seminar".  It will open up your mind to ways that you can generate publicity for yourself and the benefits that can bring you. 

Even if you weren’t born with “the hustle gene”, you’ll learn how to turn on your personal radar so you can grab an opportunity before it slips away.  You’ve probably have heard it said that in show biz “timing” is everything but just as important is perception, how others see you.  Perception is most times much more important than reality.  By being seen at red carpet events on a regular basis, this can go a long way to help create a perception about you that will cause producers and directors to become interested in hiring you.  I know this may sound unfair but it is how to game is played in our industry.   If you want to get ahead in show biz, it is important that you learn as much as possible about how to get ahead, how to get noticed.

An added bonus… once you’ve attended our seminar, your e-mail address will be placed on a special list and you will be notified about up coming red carpet events that I am involved with.

If what I’ve stated so far makes sense to you, I encourage you attend our Red Carpet Seminar.   This will be an intense, information-packed two-hour event.  

I’m not trying to make you falsely believe that after listening to me for two hours, your career
 is going to magically jump forward ten steps and the big money will start flowing in.  
On the other hand, if you don’t know the proper behavior for red carpet events and 
when you’re dealing with the media, it could hold you back forever.  Are you willing to
invest two hours of your time and acquire some new knowledge that applied properly will give 
you a tremendous edge in getting to the next level of your career?  The more you know 
about how the industry really works, the better your chances of getting to where you 
want to be.

Come join us for the next seminar on Sunday, January 17, 2010 at 2:00 PM, at 
The Complex Theatres located at 6472 Santa Monica Blvd, in Hollywood, CA.  
We’ll have a great time.  Tickets are thirty dollars in advance or forty dollars at the 
door.  
To the best of our knowledge, there is no other seminar like this.

You might want to forward this e-mail to a few your friends who might benefit from the 
info they will learn at the seminar.
May all your dreams come true in 2010,
