As part of the work I do with Lifestyle businesses I have been passed this media request.

Hello
I apologise for contacting you out of the blue but
I wonder if you can
help.
I am working on a series of 6 x 60 minute
documentaries for Channel 5,
called ‘Starting Up, Starting Over, following
six ambitious people
as they embark on a journey of a completely new
life. Ideally we hope
to catch people as they prepare for their big day,
from buying the
facilities and renovating it to rebranding the
existing business or
starting it completely from scratch. However, we
would like to also
hear from those who have just recently relocated
and are now building
up their new venture.
We are looking for families and couples who are
planning to leave the
comforts of a 9 – 5 and selling up in order to
pursue a career in
something they are passionate about.
My reason for getting in touch with you is to see
if you know anyone
about to relocate and start a new life. Perhaps
they are planning to
open a yoga retreat, a coffee shop or gastro pub,
gym or health spa.
It may be that a new health product is being
invented or made. These
are just a few examples of the different lifestyle
business
opportunities that are out there, and to highlight
what it takes to
make a new venture succeed.
We are keen to feature positive and aspirational
stories from people
who are embarking on their journey over the
summer. This is a
brilliant opportunity for “life changers” to
feature themselves
and their new venture on a prime time documentary,
and inspire other
people in the process.
I would really appreciate it if you could forward
this email onto
anyone that you think might be suitable or
interested.
