Media Outlet: Commercial Property Executive

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 7 July

Query:

This 800-worrd article, aimed at owners and operators of
commercial real estate, will be an update in the latest trends
regarding electric vehicles. This would be a roundup of
highlights, such as policy/regulation, issues that might affect
EV adoption, and any interesting initiatives among commercial
real estate operators. What new twists have emerged so far in
2020?

The connecting thread in this seemingly wide-ranging topic is
what it means for the publication's audience of commercial real
estate operators. In other words, how the demand for EVs affects
things like providing dedicated parking spaces and charging
stations. What are the best practices for new development and
especially for existing properties? Are owners sufficiently
taking the EV movement into consideration? No need to force the
impact of COVID-19 into the discussion, but it is fodder for
discussion if sources bring it up.

30) Summary: 4 questions for Careers Now syndicatec column

Name: Kathleen Furore Tribune Publishing Company

Category: Business and Finance

Email: query-azjb@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Tribune Publishing Company

Deadline: 5:00 PM EST - 7 July

Query:

I will be addressing the following questions in my Careers Now
column for Tribune Publishing and welcome input!

1. A reader recently reached out asking if people who connect
with LinkedIn members really have found job opportunities that
way. "If they have, what did they write to introduce
themselves?" he asked. He's made a list of 50 companies he's
interested in working for. When he reached out to professionals
from those companies via LinkedIn, they responded to his
connection request. But when he asked if he could speak to them
by phone, the communication stopped. Any suggestions on how he
can boost his chances of connecting in a way that will lead to
an interview?

2. It's always a good idea to have a fall-back plan--and that
has never been more evident than during the COVID-19 pandemic.
What are some ways people can create a second revenue stream
that will help them bring in more cash--both during and after
this current crisis?

3. What will prospective employers find when they search for you
online? It's a question that's more important than ever as
businesses are forced to rely on the internet more than ever
during the coronavirus shutdown. What are some steps job seekers
can take to optimize their online profiles? Is it more than a
matter of updating a LinkedIn profile?

4. Communicating with members of your work team during the
pandemic has been a challenge-one that's been handled via Zoom
calls and other forms of online communication. But what about
working with outside clients you can't meet face to face? What
are some ways you can build relationships with prospective
clients and enhance existing relationships, too?

36) Summary: Seeking Entrepreneur Journeys

Name: Sheldon Chi One Million by One Million

Category: Business and Finance

Email: query-azo6@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: One Million by One Million

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 7 July

Query:

Hi, My name is Sheldon Chi. I am responsible for coordinating
stories for the 1Mby1M blog [1mby1m.com]]. The Entrepreneur
Journeys (EJ) series is our flagship series and we're looking
for interesting companies with at least $5 million in annual
revenue to feature in lengthy feature stories. We are interested
in interviewing the entrepreneur who can and is willing to
discuss, at length, the nuances of the strategy and process of
company building, spanning topics such as bootstrapping,
financing, positioning, customer acquisition, channels, team
building, etc. To pitch, please provide revenue level, industry
(Our interests: E-Commerce, Cloud Computing, SaaS, Mobile,
Social, Big Data, IoT, FinTech, Digital Media, Gaming,
Healthcare IT, Online Education, etc.) and focus of the story
angle in terms of company-building experience. We use the
revenue level as a qualification criterion for selecting
entrepreneurs to profile. We don't necessarily have to publish
this number in the actual story. The Entrepreneur Journeys
series has already produced 12 books
(http://tinyurl.com/4p4phwy). You can see examples of the series
on our blog (http://tinyurl.com/d8m9mt). This blog is part of
the One Million by One Million global initiative, whose aim is
to help a million entrepreneurs reach $1 million in annual
revenue. We also use the EJ interviews as case studies to teach
other entrepreneurs how to navigate the entrepreneurial waters.
You get publicity, as well as a platform to share your lessons
from the trenches with a large number of aspiring and practicing
entrepreneurs. 1M/1M has syndication relationships with many
venues: HBR, Xconomy, SmallBizTrends, EconomicTimes (India),
Women 2.0, Mashable, Huffington Post, Business Insider,
ReadWriteWeb, and several other sites. Articles we develop
through these interviews often get repackaged for the
syndication partners. The 1Mby1M blog was named by Forbes in the
Top 100 Blog for Entrepreneurs (http://onforb.es/1a6RkOs). The
procedure is to have a one-hour interview by phone or in-person
in Menlo Park, at our office. We will provide the dial-in for
phone interviews, and the address for the in-person interviews.

Requirements:

When you send in your pitch, please be sure to include the
revenue level, as it is the primary criterion we use to select
stories. Unlike other entrepreneurship media, we do not look for
financing as a criterion for determining story worthiness. Also,
if your revenue threshold is below the $5M level currently, you
are welcome to email me, and I will check if your story might
fit in any of our other series. To give you a flavor, here are
some of our other ongoing series: The 1M/1M Deal Radar: Revenue
between $1M and $5M, high growth rate. We typically do email
interviews for this series. Thought Leader Interviews: We also
have Thought Leader Series opportunities in Cloud Computing,
Cyber Security, Mobile and Social, Big Data, Outsourcing, Online
Education, e-commerce, Gaming, Online Fashion, HealthcareIT,
Internet Of Things, etc. These require, however, that the
company has a minimum of $5M in revenue.

Our Thought Leaders in Artificial Intelligence (TLAI) blog is a
follow-up to our highly successful Thought Leaders in Cloud
Computing (TLCC) (http://www.sramanamitra.com/big-data/) series.
In TLAI, we interview thought leaders in the artificial
intelligence sectors -- whether they are entrepreneurs building
great companies, product/user experience designers building
great products, or executives at large companies with unique
perspectives on how the industry is evolving. We discuss trends,
disruptions, entrepreneurial opportunities, monetization models,
challenges, socio-cultural impact and much more in a seven-part
series. Of particular interest to us is the use of machine
learning techniques in scaling analytics models within Big Data.
This blog is part of the One Million by One Million global
initiative, whose aim is to help a million entrepreneurs reach
$1 million in annual revenue. 1M/1M has syndication
relationships with many venues: HBR, Xconomy, SmallBizTrends,
EconomicTimes (India), Women 2.0, Mashable, Huffington Post,

Articles we develop through these interviews often get
repackaged for the syndication partners. The 1Mby1M blog was
named by Forbes in the Top 100 Blog for Entrepreneurs
(http://onforb.es/1a6RkOs) and among the top 100 influencers on
the topic of cloud computing. Indicate in your pitch the revenue
level, as we use this as a qualification criterion for selecting
entrepreneurs to profile. We don't necessarily have to publish
this number in the actual story. Please also provide the story
angle, talking points, etc., so we can gauge what is the thought
leadership point of view we will be highlighting in the series.
Our audience is extremely sophisticated, so the conversation
needs to be equally interesting. Sramana Mitra was also named as
one of the top 10 LinkedIn influencers of 2015
(https://goo.gl/AN9TjS).
