Because I want you to get the maximum exposure for your product or service, I am sharing my journey on why and how I got on TV as a "Green Lifestyle and Beauty Expert". Here's how you can do the same for you and your business. What's Your Why? The first step for a successful PR campaign is to know why you want to get on TV. My motivation to get on TV was very straighforward and simple: I wanted to become an advocate for my ... 1338 2009-09-09T13:01:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/2-ways-to-deal-with-stress I know that stress blocks us from our potential as entrepreneurs, people, parents, spouses, and friends. When we feel stressed out, it can sometimes be paralyzing especially for people who do it all. I consulted with Dr. Sharon Melnick to get some tips on how to deal with stress in a positive and proactive way. As I put more and more on my plate, I know that the best way to get through the day with joy and energy is to deal with stress and to be organized.

I've always been the one who pitched the press for Om Aroma so it was an eye-opening experience to be on the other side of the fence of being pitched.  I tried to observe as much as I could in order to share with you what works and what doesn't. This vlog is about what you can do to get your product on TV through gift guide experts. On a side note, I had an extremely stressful situation getting to the TV... 1234 2009-08-05T13:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/you-and-your-company-s-branding-image This week I vlog about the importance of getting great photos taken for your branding and company image.  I'm joined by special guest and amazing photographer, Lisa-Marie Mazzucco.  We also get sidetracked and talk about how she also lost 20 lbs since I last saw her! 1215 2009-07-29T14:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/the-story-behind-savor-s-name-and-what-that-means-for-your-business My vlog this week is about why I named our social network “Savor the Success” and what that means to you and your business.  I realized that I was standing in my own way of success and by shifting one small (yet big) thing, things started to change for me.   Check out that gorgeous necklace and earrings that I'm wearing from Keri Starker Jewelry! 1176 2009-07-22T13:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/3-things-that-make-a-good-plan So everyone has been asking me lately, "Hey Angela, what's your plan for when you give birth?  You have two businesses and now you will have a baby.  What are you going to do?"  I'm always a little befuddled by this.  I mean, I raised a puppy and I still was able to function, right?  Babies sleep, don't they?  That's my plan!  And I'll deal with it when I get there... I soon realized after talking to numerous moms that I needed something with... 1125 2009-07-15T13:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/are-you-procrastinating-eat-a-frog-every-morning   This week, I vlog about how you can make sure you are not procrastinating in getting important things done.  Sometimes I look at my to-do list and see that the small things get done very easily.  But the hard things - like contacting a potential buyer or a big-time magazine editor - are not checked off.  Why?  I found a fantastic way to deal with that, and I'm sharing it with you!  Try it and see the difference in your lives. 1096 2009-07-08T13:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/annie-organics-founder-shares-his-secret-weapon I interviewed Andrew Martin, Founder of Annie Organics and SmartFood (sold to Frito-Lay for millions), and asked him what was the secret to his success.  His answer was simple yet it made an impact on me this past week.  As a result, I'm approaching prospects differently and I can already see a difference in their reactions. Would would have thought that something so simple could make such a profound shift? 1075 2009-07-01T13:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/sometimes-saying-good-bye-opens-up-new-doors I gave my last concert last week in the Minneapolis area.  End of chapter in my life.  Sometimes good things have to come to an end in order for you to really move on and fly into the next chapter.  You know how sometimes we know it's time to move on but it's extremely difficult?  For whatever reason, we hold on whether it's a relationship that needs to end or a part of your business that needs to be phased out or a necessary move.  Change is difficult ... 1048 2009-06-24T13:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/life-skills-i-ve-learned-from-working-with-my-spouse This week, I vlog about the skills I've learned from working with my spouse.  As you know, being in a relationship is not always easy let alone working with that person in an intense situation.  See how we make it work! Also, I share my fave finds from Transformational Jewelry and Killion Clothes... simply gorgeous! 1035 2009-06-17T13:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/get-rid-of-toxic-people-in-your-life Get rid of toxic people in your life!  Sometimes, for whatever reason, we are attracted to what is not good for us and impedes us from performing at our optimum. Here I talk about how getting rid of a toxic person led me to the most special person in my life, my husband. And I also talk about how having a great team of people to work with helps you to "fly" in your professional life.  But how do you get there?  Sometimes kissing lots of frogs is the key! 1010 2009-06-10T13:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/how-do-you-deal-with-your-competitors This week, I talk about how your competitors can actually propel you forward.  Turn something seemingly negative into something healthy and positive.  Also, I feature Andreea Ayer's TeesForChange.com! 964 2009-05-27T13:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/what-s-your-chanel-no-5 Here's a challenge to hone in on what you or your company do best.

It's a long story and for now, I will give you the short of the long. We all know that it's very, very expensive to do an event in NYC.  And I knew that it was going to be an ambitious project to try in our first year to pull together a major event with major press.  Slowly it became very clear that the economy was not on our side and we may not be able to pull it o... 823 2009-05-06T12:40:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/you-re-not-alone You know those times when you are feeling alone and don't know where to turn?  Turn to your Savor members.  There's a wealth of support, advice, and friendship that these women can offer to you... as I learned this week! 788 2009-04-29T13:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/the-secret-i-learned-this-week-about-how-to-bring-in-more-revenue 767 2009-04-22T13:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/how-i-got-invited-as-a-guest-on-cosmo-radio-and-how-you-can-get-similar-press-too 747 2009-04-15T13:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/your-past-experiences-good-bad-can-help-you-to-succeed In today's vlog, I talk about how your past experiences can propel you to success.  I also throw in a little personal announcement... :) 721 2009-04-08T13:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/are-you-losing-money-doing-it-all In this vlog, I talk about how my 30/30 project is going and how I really REALLY didn't want to go out for dinner one night with my husband's associates... but I'm glad that I did!  I learned something very important during that dinner, and I'm sharing it with you.

So I decided to take a much-needed hiatus from the piano this year.  However, my touring agency had to schedule two concerts this year due to scheduling conflicts from last year’s season.  One of those “run-outs” was this past weekend in my hom... 574 2009-02-24T15:56:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/the-pricing-game I was once told that a product-based business that makes between 100K to 500K is in danger of not making it.  At the time, I thought, "That's crazy!  I can't wait to make a quarter of a million in sales.  We'll be well on our way to really making it." Now I know what that person was saying.  See, the problem is that if you are in the product business, you have a lot of overhead.  A LOT.  And unless you started out with a lot of money, you probably can't purchase... 561 2009-02-18T12:00:00Z http://www.savorthesuccess.com/blog/savor-the-success-founders/have-these-bloggers-gone-too-far In the past week, I've received numerous emails from you about bloggers asking if they've started to cross the line.  I thought I'd highlight a couple of my favorites that either you sent my way or that we received directly from bloggers themselves.You be the judge.  Have they crossed the line?

But inside, there was such warmth of spirit and good cheer. You could see people truly savoring the success.
