Twitter Friend of the Week

I absolutely love the idea of promoting one another when we can! As a result, I have a project called "Twitter Friend of the Week." Each week, I'll showcase one or two of my Twitter Friends so that you can "meet" them.

This week my featured Twitter Friend is Shannon Cherry (don’t you just LOVE her name?) of Be Heard Solutions. Here's what Shannon had to tell us:

What is your primary business?
Be Heard Solutions provides coaching, consulting, products and programs that help people attract more prospects using free publicity.

What is unique about you or your business?
I come from a reporter's background. (I was a TV anchor and reporter for several years before I started doing public relations.) Most folks in my niche don't have any journalism background, so I know how a newsroom really works, not just how to write a good press release.

What is one fun thing about yourself that most of us don't know?
I sang for (the late) Christopher Reeve and sang with BB King.

Do you work from home or an outside office?
My office is on a separate floor than the rest of my house, so I have the best of both worlds!

What is your favorite computer application?
If it's online, it's Twitter. If it's offline, it's got to be... wait I don't think I'm offline that much!

What is your favorite food?
My dad's linguini and clams. I can't master it no matter how hard I try!

If you could be a super hero, what would you be called and what would your super powers be?
What? You mean I’m not a super hero already? My passion is justice. So I probably would be known as "Equality Girl" and I’d be able to right wrongs to make things fair!

What one piece of advice would you give someone who wants to get into your line of business?
Do an internship. I learned more by really working in a newsroom while in college and working as an intern in PR than I did with both my college degrees!

What is the follow link for one of yourTwitter Friends who you think everyone would benefit from following and why should we follow them?
@virtualmarketer - Rebecca is unknown to many on Twitter but she's a high-end SEO master. You'll learn a lot about driving traffic from her - even how to really use Twitter to get better search engine rankings.

I’ve known Shannon for quite a while now (not telling exactly how long) and I can guarantee that you won’t regret visiting her website! Check her out on Twitter (you won’t regret THAT either)!@shannoncherry
