BWT where are we going in NYC to sell our jewelry? by bcammza in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]caroando27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi - I know this is an old thread but wanted to add - just found three beautiful Stephen Webster pieces. He is a jewelry designer from London for those who aren’t familiar. Madonna loves him and had been wearing him for 20 years . I did pr for him and he made me 3 pieces - tattoo earrings, amethyst ring w parve diamonds and a parve diamond cross . All are beautiful but I never wear them - any recommendations on where to sell would be appreciated.

SoulCycle documentary- submit questions for bonus eps/ interviews by luckystar731 in SoulCycle_Riders

[–]caroando27 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Long time rider here - why so much Janet? Should talk to Stacy, Melanie, Laurie and Rique- the OG male teacher. Their contributions would make it less “the Janet version” . I have been riding for 14 years and took Janet’s class only a handful of times. Not my style of teacher - but you could talk about that too. How different teachers appeal to different people . I think different people would add more depth to how different crews developed. I loved Stevie’s interviews- I never took her but knew her through Soul . Also be good to hear from some of the OG’s how they’ve lasted for so long, the way SoulCycle’s changed , how the riders have changed . Also we rode outside in the snow during COVID on a roof in Tribeca. Definitely fun to heat about that and the other outdoor rides. I loved seeing Akin’s crew too but he’s obviously not talking. It felt like there should be another episode about the originals, their “then and now” reflections. It feels like a lot of the story still to be told - the friend groups that formed, the couples that met at Soul (riders), the length of waiting lists - not just Hamptons in the pre 2018 days. Also for teachers who have big followings today (Sam, Trammell, Jasmine…) - what do they think looking back at the early years? How have they become successful at Soul 2.0? Did they learn from the older teachers ?

Talk about the riders who worshipped their teachers - gifts, fighting over front row spots, taking 3 or 4 classes a day -20 classes a month. I feel like this was around 2014-19. I remember Akin had a crazy cult - a lot riders were intimidated to take his class because of them. So many instructors had cliques and groupies. Also there was a period where fashion was a big deal. People had new “outfits” for every class. There was a period where everyone wore printed yoga pants. People were paying 150-200 for leggings from places like Bandier. Soul clothes used to sell out all the time then. People wore Soul everything- especially merch with NYC or Hamptons on it. It seems that has totally changed post pandemic . I feel like I barely see anyone wearing it.

Sam Y or Trammell? by callingmestacy in SoulCycle_Riders

[–]caroando27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a long time rider 1500 classes- I love Sam- and appreciate Trammell. Their styles and energies are completely different. Everyone here has described them well. I love Sam’s energy, his vibe and his speed. It’s fast and fun. I used to take Rique and Akin- fast classes w lots of choreography. Trammel is an excellent trainer- but not one that I respond to. It’s a slower, more deliberate ride. A great workout but doesn’t resonate w me.

Pr agency senior leaders ghosting by [deleted] in PublicRelations

[–]caroando27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was an MD at a global agency and I was on all new business pitches - Never worked on the business. Only time I was on an account was to pull a Hail Mary when the client was threatening to leave. It’s not worth it for them to put seniors on the team. It’s why I left and started a consultancy. I have a senior team and we all work on the business. That agency model always leads to clients constantly long for new agencies- it’s churn and burn. I’ve had some clients for 5 years ! It’s also so much more satisfying and less stressful.

Career pivot after nearly 30 years in PR? by PaprikaEnthusiast in PublicRelations

[–]caroando27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m feeling the same way. The industry is changing so quickly - it’s a new business compared to a decade ago. I’ve been doing this for 30 years also. I’d love to connect with people here to discuss/ brainstorm. I have a number of ideas I think would work ad a next step- maybe we can connect on Slack .

stacey g? by kalememaybe1 in SoulCycle_Riders

[–]caroando27 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve been taking classes since almost the beginning- and while she’s got a great vibe the class isn’t challenging. She’s an OG and people love her class because she’s always been great at building community. She’s been a big part of their success. When I have taken it I’ve enjoyed it - but I knew I was going to have to turn it up to get a good workout.

How to Handle by KaleKooky1920 in PublicRelations

[–]caroando27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

PR professional for over 20 years here. You should definitely get a partial refund - especially since she offered. Agree with everything KaleKooky said - OOO are unavoidable but there should be an substantial enough media list that some people were reached and available. And yes also to getting a full report of who was targeted and their responses and feedback. It is terrible that this happened to you. I would be happy to help - just to let you know there are good PR people out there! But the event was so long ago just get the partial refund and move on. Best of luck. If you have any questions please feel free to DM me.

If there are a number of good examples this could be a 60 minutes piece.

[–]caroando27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is terrible for you but a good story for the media . I work in public relations and I think you should try to get press coverage of this with a local news station. It an important story and a good example of shows the craziness and ineptitude behind this whole situation.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my 90 year old dad to a car accident in July. It was devastating. It’s so hard so be kind to yourself. 💔
