Break A Record For Charity...And Free PR

Break A Record For Charity...And Free PR

Here is a gem of an idea from Larry Olmsted's book Getting Into Guinness.

The next time your organization wants to get some free media attention, consider breaking a record in Guinness Book of Records with the benefit to a local charity.

Everyone (including the media) is always interested in the biggest and the best, the most, the tallest, the highest, the largest and the greatest.

Everyone is always interested in the average person doing something curious or odd so long as it's entertaining.

Finally if you also raise money for a local charity, then you have created the "perfect media storm" - something altruistic and something bizarre and wonderful all in one event.

For example, imagine 10,000 people jumping rope to fight colon cancer.

Leanne Hoagland-Smith
Are your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website
