SO, WHAT’S ALL THE BUZZ ABOUT?
It’s about veteran entertainment correspondent and Hollywood insider Gayl Murphy’s book: INTERVIEW TACTICS! HOW TO SURVIVE THE MEDIA WITHOUT GETTING CLOBBERED! That’s what THE BUZZZ is about!
Having conducted thousands of high profile celebrity interviews in her news and broadcasting career – encompassing TV, radio, print and online – Murphy insists that when it comes to meeting the press, “If you don’t have a clue what you’re supposed to do, what then? The most important thing I can tell you about being interviewed is, ‘You gotta tell it to sell it!’ And if you can’t tell your own story, who will?”
Over the course of her career, Murphy has worked for some of the most well respected news organizations – including ABC News, the BBC NEWS, SKY NEWS, APRADIO, SIRIUS, and E! And, has interviewed many of the biggest celebrities, authors, experts and “movers and shakers” in the world. Murphy concludes that when it comes to doing press.
“Hi Gayl, You are truly are an inspiration! Thank you so much for your book, Interview Tactics. My wife and I started reading it together and couldn’t put it down. With a subject regarding interviewing, we thought it could be a bit boring, but we were so wrong! … Wow, I’m now ready, and won’t be caught off guard when I’m asked to do that next interview. The exercises in the back of the book are what propelled my confidence level, and now I know that I’ll give a great interview next time. Thank you very much for such a easy to read, fun to read and informative book.” — Steve Matrix, CEO, Day-Traders.com
Murphy acknowledges her goal for INTERVIEW TACTICS is to media coach, train and empower Media Virgins to become successful Media Stars and to “Tell it to sell it” … and win! She says, “With the extension of the Hollywood brand and the proliferation of media, it seems like everyone is being booked for interviews these days. And that’s not exclusive to Hollywood types either, it’s authors, inventors, life-style gurus, celebrity chefs, financial advisers, designers, decorators, lawyers, scientists and do-it-yourselfers. All of whom I call, ‘The Experts Next Door.’ And if they can’t tell it, they can’t sell it.”
“Gayl, I found your book very helpful. FOX NEWS is doing a nationwide story on my company ‘Freedom Laser Therapy’ and thankfully, your book was discovered before my interview happened. I am glad to have found your web site! THANKS!”— Craig Nabat, Freedom Laser Therapy/Ambitious Ideas, Santa Monica, CA
