INTERACTIVEThe Alexis Jones Show will be on the cutting edge of digital interactive features. Planned interactivity in-cludes viewer interviews, text voting, and a custom-ized social network powered by Ning (same setup as Tyra and Ellen). Because the content of the show cre-ates emotional conversation, by including our viewers in many aspects of the show we will secure the word of mouth marketing needed to sustain ratings.

CELEBRITY DRIVENCelebirities from all walks of entertainment, sports and politics are longing for a platform to showcase them selves in a positive more geniune light. Alexis will drive deep conversatons with the celebrity guests, getting them to open up and expose layers the public rarely sees. Oprah is often successful in getting the “mo-ments” from celebrities and it often makes for inter-net hits, driving ratings and ancillary revenue streams.

MOHTERS AND DAUGHTERSAlexis has spoken to tens of thousands of Generation Y females over the past few years and has been su-prised by the response of mothers to her message. Mothers see Alexis as a gateway to communication with their daughters. The Alexis Jones show will be a natural extension of this and will be a show mothers can watch with their daughters and will become a great way for moms and daughters to have conver-saton.

THE MOVEMENTSThe Alexis Jones Show will be heavily backed by fe-male empowerment movements I Am That Girl and UnYted. These movements currently have millions of young women in their network and will fully sup-port the show, guaranteeing a built in loyal fan base. These influential groups will also provide content sto-ries, insight to the hard to target demographic and online interaction with the brand.
