Beverly Mahone to Present “How to Use Contests to Boost Business Coverage”

SAN ANTONIO, TX— Media expert Beverly Mahone is presenting a free webinar through Access Referral Network’s summer experts’ series. The webinar is presented through the consumer advocacy website, www.ForAccess.com, for all members and visitors this summer.

Do you wonder how to attract customers to your site? How do you let people know about your business? The truth is people like to win, and they love contests! On Monday, June 18, and Wednesday, June 20, Mahone will present “Insider tip! How to use contests to boost business coverage.” As a journalist and media coach, Mahone has studied and used multiple hooks to capture the attention of her audience. She is now bringing her expertise to business owners tired of conventional methods of advertising.

Beverly Mahone, www.talk2bev.com, says, “Putting together a contest is a fun and effective way to draw traffic to your website. If your website is tailored to reach a specific market, your contests should fit in the same genre. The workshop will teach you how to go about deciding on what type of contest to run, how long to run it, and how to promote it”.

Jeanne Fuller, president of ForAccess.com, said, “Beverly is the “contest queen,” and always uses innovative advertising techniques to promote her own business. She is a veteran journalist who spent over 25 years in radio and television. Beverly is sharp, funny, and entertaining. We look forward to having her present to our members and guests.”

The Ohio University graduate has now put her expertise to work by establishing her own media coaching and consulting business called Soul Solutions/Talk2Bev where she teaches her clients the mechanics of preparing for media interviews. In addition, Ms. Mahone has authored the book “Whatever! A Baby Boomer’s Journey into Middle Age”. As a result of the book’s success, she has been featured as a baby boomer expert on MSNBC-TV and written about in the recently released book, Talk Radio for Authors by Francine Silverman. She was also recently featured in an article in the New York Times, due to techniques she used in her own business and teaches to others.

An exciting part of this webinar will actually be…what else? A contest! By testing your knowledge of contests with Beverly Mahone, 2 winners will receive a free 30 second ad for their business on Beverly’s popular podcast and an unedited version of the “And the Winner is…YOU.
