RSLL 008 | Interview with Vince Romanelli: Using Social Media to Get Sponsorship

In this episode of the Rock Star Life Lessons podcast, Carla Lynne Hall and Ariel Hyatt are at TAXI’s Road Rally talking to musician Vince Romanelli. Vince shares how he was able to get a sponsorship from Sonic Burgers by using Twitter.

Ariel and I had a great time hanging out with Vince and his buddy DJ Philips at TAXI that weekend. They are fun guys, and by the time the conference was over, we felt like we had known them forever!

Carla and Ariel’s NEW BOOK…the Intern’s Perspective

[One of the coolest things about working with Ariel Hyatt is having access to some of the brightest up and comers in the music biz, aka her interns!!! I am quite fortunate to have Miz Marissa Zaenger be my right hand and Community Coordinator this Spring 2011 semester. From the Chicago area, she graduates at the end of this year from Belmont University. She is smart as a whip, and teaching me how to delegate! Today, I proudly share a guest post of Marissa’s, which originally appeared on the Music Success in Nine Weeks blog]

Hey everyone! Guest blogger Marissa here. You may have seen me around on the Mastermind forum if you’re part of that crowd, but if not, I intern with Cyber PR and have Ariel and Carla as two pretty kick-butt bosses. I basically help manage artist campaigns, moderate the forum, and blog :]

Anyway, the Cyber PR office has seen some pretty exciting action this week. Ariel and Carla’s brand spankin’ new book, Musician’s Roadmap to Facebook and Twitter, is now available!! We’ve been processing book orders and shipping out like CRAZY. We had a big order come in for 20 books from Benji over at PledgeMusic, so we decided to have some fun and take pictures of ourselves packing the box. Check our hotness out.

Here’s Jason, Ariel’s right hand man. He’s the head honcho for us interns!

This lovely lady is Chereen, and she’s from Holland. That’s far, yo! She’s super nice and works hard for Cyber PR!


Kyle’s another awesome intern and a native New Yorker. He handles the long train ride from Harlem to Brooklyn pretty well. Probably because he gets to crack jokes with me all day ;]

And FINALLY, yours truly, keepin’ it real. Me! I’m from Chicago. Don’t let the funky leggings fool you, I clearly mean business.

A big thank you from all of us at Ariel Publicity to Benji at PledgeMusic! Everyone go check out PledgeMusic and see Musician’s Roadmap for yourself! Over and out! <3 Photo Credit: Kyle and Jason
