Press Release Body = SAN ANTONIO, TX- Media expert Beverly Mahone is presenting a
free webinar through Access Referral Network's summer experts' series. The webinar
is presented through the consumer advocacy website, www.ForAccess.com, for all
members and visitors this summer.

Do you wonder how to attract customers to your site? How do you let people know
about your business? The truth is people like to win, and they love contests! On
Monday, June 18, and Wednesday, June 20, Mahone will present "Insider tip! How to
use contests to boost business coverage." As a journalist and media coach, Mahone
has studied and used multiple hooks to capture the attention of her audience. She is
now bringing her expertise to business owners tired of conventional methods of
advertising.

Beverly Mahone, www.talk2bev.com, says, "Putting together a contest is a fun and
effective way to draw traffic to your website. If your website is tailored to reach
a specific market, your contests should fit in the same genre. The workshop will
teach you how to go about deciding on what type of contest to run, how long to run
it, and how to promote it".

Jeanne Fuller, president of ForAccess.com, said, "Beverly is the "contest queen,"
and always uses innovative advertising techniques to promote her own business. She
is a veteran journalist who spent over 25 years in radio and television. Beverly is
sharp, funny, and entertaining. We look forward to having her present to our members
and guests."

The Ohio University graduate has now put her expertise to work by establishing her
own media coaching and consulting business called Soul Solutions/Talk2Bev where she
teaches her clients the mechanics of preparing for media interviews. In addition,
Ms. Mahone has authored the book "Whatever! A Baby Boomer's Journey into Middle
Age". As a result of the book's success, she has been featured as a baby boomer
expert on MSNBC-TV and written about in the recently released book, Talk Radio for
Authors by Francine Silverman. She was also recently featured in an article in the
New York Times, due to techniques she used in her own business and teaches to
others.
