I will write some funny things for you tomorrow about airports but I thought you might be interested that I was interviewed on tv for Prosper.com.

How did I get on TV?

A few weeks ago I wrote about my love for Prosper. Then at work we talked about contacting Prosper and seeing how they got such great press mentions. I was fortunate to talk to Tiffany (Prosper Communication’s Director) about their strategy, service and some product feedback. She asked me if I wanted to be on TV and I said of course.

Here is my video on KPIX CBS channel 5. Yes, my mom said I need a hair cut as well=)

I asked the lady from CBS how to get on TV and she suggested:

  • Contact them directly
  • Relate to some hot story of the moment
  • Do something wild and let them know about it ahead of time.

    I love the clip from It’s a Wonderful Life clip!
    Hope you don’t lose that cash, but like you said, if you do you do.

    Sri,

    My mom always wanted me to be a male model. I can do the Blue Steel look really well, just like from the movie Zoolander (top 10 best movie ever).

    It is on the right side. She suggested we burn a pile of money for Mint. Not sure how excited I am about that.

    Ni job Noah,

    I liked the casual disregard for ever seeing your money again, very much a man for the people! Zoolander, right up there with A Night at the Roxbury!!
