How to secure a TV spot with Broadcaster Lynn Smith

As we launch our brand into the US market I have had the opportunity to meet some incredible thought leaders who pay forward their knowledge to others.  Lynn Smith changed course at the height of her career as a TV Anchor for some of the most watched newsrooms in the United States. In 2001, she kicked things off as an NBC page before she was hired to be an assistant to NBC executives and later, a producer at Today. All three positions opened doors to unforgettable experiences for the TV personality who took on coveted gigs as an anchor for NBC News, MSNBC and CNN Headline News, where she covered major world events as they unfolded — including the Japan tsunami, natural disasters and “far too many mass shootings.” Our paths crossed as she switched careers to launch TMX Access, a business with a team of former journalists who place media trained and verified experts with the top 200 newsrooms in the country.  Topics discussed: * Lynn’s first break into media - how did she get it and how did she feel when she stepped in front of a live camera in studio *The power of a good interview - Lynn has interviewed Dolly Parton, John Legend, Kristen Bell and many more - how do they deliver the X factor in terms of content people want to tune into and share? * For the everyday female leader, how can they prepare to make an impact in the media arena? * Why she stepped  away from the limelight to create her own newsroom  * The best way to pitch and secure a TV spot on a high ranking network show You can connect with Lynn Smith via linkedin and I highly reccomed her weekly newsletter - it'’s jam packed full of incredible content to build your brand and business.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
