This past December, I got one of my clients featured in O (Oprah) Magazine’s gift guide.  The client was able to attribute well over $10,000 in sales in December to that one placement.  One business owner I know attributed over a million dollars in sales from an O Magazine gift guide placement.

You may not know that May is when we start our active pitching for holiday gift guide placements, because many top magazines have six or seven month lead times, and stop accepting submissions at the end of May.

On May 20, 2009, at 2 p.m. Eastern, Gift Guide Editors, Amy Bates Stumpf of the Gift List, and I will be sharing tips on how to get great holiday gift guide placements in top media outlets. If you can’t attend it live, I will be taping it for audio download, and creating an electronic transcript.

Gift Guide and Product Editors from top media outlets including Good Housekeeping, Woman’s World and more will be sharing tips and answering your questions (note:  these media folks have confirmed, but occasionally drop out at the last minute due to the demands of the media). 

While this teleseminar can be worth thousands of dollars to you, you can get the Early Bird price of only $49, if you register by 5 p.m. Eastern on Wednesday, May 13, 2009.  After that, the price goes up to $99. Sign up here: http://tinyurl.com/ckoowv.
