After appearing in O The Oprah Magazine, Genevieve Piturro was on the Oprah Winfrey Show.. Oprah challenged the 300 person audience to bring in as many pjs as they could – with a catch. They were only allowed to buy one pair per person. Collectively the audience brought in over 32,000 pajamas for her charity. In addition to appearing on the Oprah Show Genevieve was a guest on Oprah & Friends XM radio. So Genevieve got into O magazine, on the Oprah show and then on Oprah's radio station.

Inclusion in Oprah's Magazine Brings Joy |
There's no book like this one on the market. You won't find another book that shares the advice of publicists who regularly get their clients in O, The Oprah Magazine or the ordinary people like you or me, who made it into the exclusive pages of the magazine that has THE most impact on your bottom line of any other women's magazine. O Magazine is the gold standard for anyone wanting to become a household name.
I didn't just regurgitate published articles, or lift quotes from other books (there were no others to even read!). The interviews that you'll find in this book are original material from my exclusive contacts. Most people don't have access to the kind of insider information I'm about to share until now.
So whether you're someone who has dreamed of seeing yourself on the pages of O Magazine—I want to help you. You deserve to know what it takes to get featured, profiled, quoted or have your product chosen for Oprah's magazine, and I'm going to show you how, within these 156 pages packed with the exact information that you need to be one of the chosen few selected. You'll soon be able to bask in abundance and good fortune when you join the exclusive group of people who can say, "Did you see me in O The Oprah Magazine?"
How to Get into O, PLUS Sell Yourself Without Selling Your Soul®-Self Esteem from the Inside Out AND Why Can't Women Be More Like Men?
