African
American Speakers and Experts Needed For New Online Directory
BlackExperts.com
helps individuals get exposure and publicity
Columbus, OH - Finding a Black expert can be difficult,
which is part of the reason why you always see the same Black
people (Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, T.D. Jakes, etc.) being
interviewed on the news and speaking at various conferences.
However, Diversity City Media, an 8-year old multicultural
marketing and public relations firm, is seeking to change
that. The company recently launched BlackExperts.com - an
online directory of African American speakers and experts.
The site allows individuals to profile themselves in front
of journalists, radio/TV producers, meeting planners, etc.
who may be interested in using them for media interviews or
paid speaking engagements.
Dante
Lee, CEO of Diversity City Media, comments "There are
thousands of African Americans out there with expertise.
BlackExperts.com gives them the needed exposure to be
considered for media and speaking opportunities."
Lee continues, "BlackExperts.com is not another speakers
bureau, it's more like a Yellow Pages full of Black
people who know what they're talking about."
The web site, which launched in May 2007, is free to
use as a directory, but does charge an annual fee to
have a profile listed.
Categories are available for health experts, business
experts, relationship experts, financial experts, motivational
speakers, doctors, lawyers, and more.
