My work as a productivity coach and blogger.
“Paula Rizzo knows how to make a segment sing. She creates compelling new ways to tell stories and change how people think. If you want someone who can craft the perfect segment idea and get your message across –she’s your match.”
“Working with Paula is a breath of fresh air. She values and respects me as a person, and perhaps more importantly, values and respects my time. I’d work with Paula any day, anywhere.”
“Two days after Paula’s coaching, my interview with Channel 4 News in the UK went viral on social media with more than 100 million views, making it the most watched clip ever produced by Channel 4. Within just 20 minutes Paula’s media training opened my eyes to ways I could be even more effective in spreading my message of happiness. With her keen eye and firm but friendly manner she helped me undo years of previous media training that wasn’t working. I’ve been much more comfortable and polished on air thanks to Paula’s guidance.”
“Paula is one of the sharpest and most well-informed producers I know. I have worked with her on segments for nearly a decade and every experience has been a positive one. She is always prepared, professional and nice, attributes which can be tough to find in this industry. Paula is a total pro!”
“Anyone that has the opportunity to work with Paula Rizzo should run towards that chance. She’s smart, organized, thoughtful and creative.”
About me
As a best-selling author and Emmy-award winning television producer for nearly 20 years, I’ve produced health, wellness, and lifestyle segments with a range of top experts, including JJ Virgin, Jillian Michaels, and Deepak Chopra. I served as senior health producer for Fox News Channel in New York City for over a decade. Today, I work with experts, authors, and entrepreneurs on how to position themselves for media (traditional as well as blogs and podcasts), build their lists, and engage customers and fans for their brands, books and businesses.
I’m also the co-creator of Lights Camera Expert – an online course geared towards helping entrepreneurs, authors and experts get media attention.
I created the productivity site ListProducer.com and am the best-selling author of Listful Thinking: Using Lists to be More Productive, Highly Successful and Less Stressed, which has been translated into 12 languages and has been featured on many media outlets including Fox News, Fox Business, Prevention, Business Insider, Entrepreneur, Brides and made it on Oprah.com’s list of “Self Help Books That Actually Help.”
My latest book: Listful Living: A List-Making Journey to a Less Stressed You will be published in the Fall of 2019.
I’m a regular speaker, and presented the keynote address for New York Women in Communications, and have presented at MA Conference for Women, Public Relations Society of America (PRSA), National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO), American Society of Association Executives, and others.
“Paula just knows the *exact* things that can make your media appearance a success. Her simple tweaks have completely changed how I appear on TV and also my confidence level for doing future media! She is the person you should be working with to translate your passion and expertise into a polished, media appearance.”
“Paula has a rare vision to see which topics would bring massive attention from media, press and viewers. Her vision brought me thousands of viewers to my site, global media exposure, and even more follow-on media opportunities.”
“I’ve worked in and around media for more than 20 years. In that time, Paula Rizzo has absolutely been one of the most organized, efficient and collaborative producers I’ve ever met, let alone had the pleasure to work with. She intuitively knows how to carve out the exact right segment for guests not only for her own audience, but to meet the needs of our promotional initiatives as well. She’s even provided me consult on how to best work with producers at other outlets and how to translate my messaging into the language of the media. She’s an invaluable and treasured resource in my professional arsenal.”
“The knowledge that Paula shared with our team from her years of experience and profound expertise was invaluable. Months later, we still regularly quote things that she shared with us during her presentation and we will definitely look forward to inviting her back to our offices to present to our team again in the future.”
