Nicole served as the impetus behind Bisou-Bisou Inc. and it’s
latest branch, L’Om yoga center. As their consultant, she created
unique publicity concepts for national TV, print and media coverage
which she provided. Her most original idea was directing fashion
designer, Michele Bohbot, into her premiere promotional debut
thus bringing ‘the woman behind the scenes’ out into the public
eye; a brilliant tool, which created a more personable angle for
the company’s image.
Aside from conceiving media campaign strategies and marketing, Nicole
produced fashion shows including casting models and booking hair
and make-up artists. Naturally, she attracted all press coverage
and exposure for these exciting spectacles. Nicole’s tasks also
included recruiting employees for the yoga center and training
new assistants for her PR company to cover all bases, which she
did beautifully.
