How to Break into Fashion: Net-a-Porter.com<\/span><\/a>\u2019s Public Relations Director Kilee Hughes fashionbombdaily.com\/2014\/03\/27\/bre\u2026<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

My perspective is a direct descendant from my mentor’s teachings: His firm, IMG, started NYFW (NY Fashion Week). Here is my view via five points and three hashtags<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
-1- Hosting 11 Minute Parties (#LTMVP)<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Three Eventbrite events. One in Memphis for Fashion Week’s preview. Your 11 minute Memphis party teases Memphis and motivates some to travel to NYC Sept 3-14. Another in Memphis for “Larry Chiang’s Fashion Night Out MEMPHIS”. Both Memphis events should be July August.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
One Eventbrite event in NYC Sept 4\/5. I’d do a fashion reception at Empire Hotel or Mandarin Oriental. Do the event in the hotel bar. Plot spoiler, you do not have to be 21 in a hotel bar \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
-2- DO WordPress Blog posts about fashion.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Use the #MVBP method. Google that hashtag for my minimum viable (wordpress) blog post business recipe<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
-3- EUTWMPPM (yup, it’s a hashtag)<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
-4- cross the innovation chasm from the right #CTCFTR<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Pick one problem and use MPAF to solve it. Get a notebook because all these acronyms are detailed business recipes. Think of your career as making a 13 course gourmet meal. Every course in your meal has one hashtag. That sometimes has sub hashtags.<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
ENGR145’s Anchor Concepts “Lemonade and Gua Gua Guacamole” have about 15 hashtags.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
They all move you to the right on the entrepreneur bell curve <\/div>\n
