I was reading Craig’ss list stuff for TV and Film in the Los Angeles area and I came across a post from a guy who was offering $1,000 cash to find out who is following him. He claims people started following him and now he is being recognized in public.
He talks about how frustrated he is and how to get the reward and lists his facebook page at a place to contact him.
It’s a great way to get traffic to your facebook page, I doubt the story seriously though. He may be trying to get some media coverage out of it. When you play the crazy card, media is usually not comfortable with that. Very few people can play crazy in a way that is endearing. Ask Bobcat Goldwait about that kind of move.
I always recommend playing your expert status. There are better ways of getting people to your facebook page without sounding like you are off your medication.

How to Use a Press Conference

This article will explain the purpose of a press conference. It will give you recent examples of poor use and tips on how to set up your own successful press conference.
Press conferences have a purpose. You gather together press to make an announcement or give them information that will fuel their writing or talking about you in their media. You want bloggers to blog about your, the public to give you information, TV people to talk about your, radio people to report about you, and newspapers and magazines to write articles about you. In extreme cases, you want the kidnappers to give your loved one back. You have to give some information or facts, and then everyone can take it from there. People may ask questions that you have to deal with or you can say sorry, no questions at the end and walk away. It’s like a buffet, you put it out there, and people take what they need or want and leave. You cannot control what is written about you. You can greatly influence what is written by how you handle the Press conference. Always remember, YOU are the one invited people to the party, so it better be good.
