How to Get Quoted in Print Media

Success Magazine interviewed me last week after reading a blog article I wrote called What's in My Carry-on Travel Bag. Getting a phone call like that is really exciting! I've received media phone calls before, but it still seems like random luck. I sure would like to crack the code--wouldn't you?

Here's a great article by Penelope Trunk that makes some key points about what print media journalists are looking for. Click here to read How to Get Your Blog (or Yourself) Mentioned in Print Media.

[Note from Jaya: The article I was interviewed for will be published in the February issue of Success Magazine.]

Hi, Jaya. Thanks for linking to my post. I'm really glad to find you -- my best friend runs a hair salon in Los Angeles, and I'm always shocked at the business skills it takes to succeed as a hair stylist.

As a career writer I am constantly advising people to hire career coaches, and I think it's great that you've carved out this special niche within the coaching arena.

I passed your name to my friend and told her everyone in her salon should call you :)
