The media flock to experts. They interview them. They put them on the covers of magazines. They feature them on TV shows like "60 Minutes," "Nightline," and on hundreds of radio shows on National Public Radio and in your own community.

Joan Stewart, a.k.a. The Publicity Hound, is a publicity expert who will share the secrets of how Virtual Assistants can position themselves as experts so the media start flocking to you, too.

Joan, a former editor of three daily newspapers and a weekly business journal, has accepted and rejected thousands of story ideas from experts, so she knows the kinds of sources the media seek out, and the kinds they ignore.

Joan publishes "The Publicity Hound's Tips of the Week," a free weekly ezine read by more than 19,000 people worldwide. You can subscribe at her website at http://www.PublicityHound.com.
