Get Celebs Gushing About Your Work
Are celebrities gushing about your work? Some of you may say yes, most of us just say, I wish! Well I have some good news for you! While you may not be able to afford Will Smith to do an ad about your work, a recent article got me digging and excited! There are ways to get your work in the hands of celebrities! There are ways to get celebs to talk about your company! We were recently offered the chance to include our product in a Swag Bag given out at a celebrity fundraiser. There were different levels of commitment/donation in return for more advertising. It ranged from a business card int he bag all the way to a getting a photo of a celebrity with your product. Of course the price grew as well.
When trying to get celebrities talking about your work, or advertising for you there are a few key things to keep in mind. One is the celebrity status….you can go local celebs, out of the picture celebs or all the way to main stream celebs. It depends on your budget and dedication. About a year ago, Twitter was holding a benefit celebrity tweet auction on Ebay where you could bid on celebrities tweeting about you or your business. So there are ways out there, you just have to do some work. A recent article named a few ways I want to share. One was One-time appearances, which is a little easier on your pockets! With this option you are hiring them for a one time quick promo! Another was the previously mentioned Swag Bags. And last is direct mail, where you mail out samples, advertising, etc to celebrity agents or reps.
You will find that with these options price is always a factor and hiring a celebrity that is no longer main stream is going to be a bit easier than trying to get Madonna. Below you will find a few links that will surely get you moving toward celebrity buzz!
