”I was approached by GMTV to appear on the This Morning show in relation to Chris Foster who allegedly killed his family. It was a sensitive subject for which they thought a stress expert might be suitable. I was interviewed and helped with a telephone phone in. It was nerve racking but it went well and was a fantastic experience.”
I am a Money Psychologist and author and a friend suggested I register with findaTVexpert to help me with my publicity. After a few days of registering, I received a call from a top PR company that was willing to pay me for my time, effort, comments, contribution and to be a media spokesperson for a news survey about the cost of August for families from a leading budget store. I was featured in the press release which was sent out to national/print & broadcast media as a news story. If you want to be found, I suggest you register with findatvexpert.com!
Find A TV Expert has been a fantastic platform to showcase our expertise and talents to an industry that is almost impossible to penetrate . We have been contacted by RDF and had a very successful meeting with the Development Executives about our shift to thrift lifestyle.
In the TV business it is all about exposure to the right people and Find a TV Expert for us has been a blessing and a pleasure to be part of.
It is so exciting when you get the call or email saying you have been spotted. Claire Richmond has created a great site, she is really hands on and very helpful putting us in touch with those who make dreams happen.
This site works!
I registered on FindATVExpert.com and they were very helpful with the profile submission. Three weeks later I had a call from Kavanagh Communication, PR agency, asking if I’d do Radio Interviews for the launch of the new IKEA catalogue. It was a great start to my media career, boosted my confidence and gave me invaluable experience and exposure. Kavanagh said they also loved the site as they find it easy to use. For me, it was £100 well spent, as I immediately re-couped my costs. I have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone who wants to 'take a punt'. Best of luck, Lindsay.
