If Mariah Carey Can Start Christmas Early So Can SG - 2022 Holiday Gift Guide Starts Now


Good Morning or Evening Friends, 

This is your friendly announcer (Stevie Wonder) voice. This year, much like many others, I've had the luxury of being introduced to amazing brands that I feel the world should know about. If not the world, at least our SG community. Every year we host a Holiday Guide to ensure that brands who don't have the budget or access to marketing, publicity, and the typical price tag of a Holiday Gift Guide in a large-scale media magazine. Because how are you supposed to spend $3-10k on a gift guide and still prepare for inventory? Yeah, Nah, we're good over here. 

Furthermore, receiving press is nearly impossible if you don't already have it. We charge a very small fee here to HOST your passion projects/businesses and hopefully help move the needle for your upcoming year in the black. Our followers look forward to this gift guide every year because we cater it to the needs of the consumer as well as the product owner. And, we try to make it fun for everyone involved. 

Last year, a gift guide brand received 10 orders while she was still interviewing, a radio placement and networking opportunities to meet other business owners. All that .. for a little bit of money. 

We also were lucky enough to tie in some behemoth brands who were happy to be a part of the guide. 

That was the pitch, here is the roundup. 

We are looking for all kinds of brands, anything that a person could buy on amazon, in our minds, should be shopped with you first. So whether you're an author, a wellness brand, an apparel line, or you sell coaching services, SOMEBODY PROBABLY NEEDS TO KNOW YOU AND DOESN'T. 

The rules are pretty simple, you must have a functional website or e-shopping site so we can route our readers to you and a small fee for our time in creating this awareness for you. We're talking about over 15k readers a month and we're barely on here #blessed. 

The retail value is bananas, and our post reach is modest (10k monthly average on Facebook and IG), but our followers dig a deal. So if you have discount codes you'd like to provide, we welcome them. Also, if you really want to sweeten the deal, a lot of brands provide us with product samples to be administered within our contest giveaways. 

OKAY, BUT HOW MUCH DOES IT COST? 

Alright, so boom. The cost to be featured in the guide is $50. THAT'S IT. To be showcased in a live interview by Capt SistaGurl on her Facebook Live and IG pages and the gift guide itself is $100. 

If you're an author, the cost is the same unless you want us to give you a book review and that's $150, which includes your own separate post, and placement in the guide. 

So let's ensure that Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and our umpteenth shopping days are bigger and better with our help. 

DEADLINE - In a perfect world we'd let everyone submit today, but November 20th is our target. We are flexible on this deadline, but to secure your spot, we recommend you move EXPEDITIOUSLY - T.I. Voice! 

I WANT IN - Cool, we're so glad. Please send us an email with your product description and website, and the teir structure you want, (Gift guide only, Gift Guide and Live Interview, Gift Guide Author, Gift Guide Author & Interview. Gift Guide Author Review) to Pr@sgmediaandent.com. We will respond within 24 hrs and we welcome referrals to your friends. 


Let’s get those shopping carts filled!  

Love and Light, 

Capt SistaGurl

The Mary Jane Syndrome

The Mary Jane Syndrome By Kesia King Being labeled a "strong black woman" used to be a badge of honor.  A "strong black woman" takes on every battle life throws her way, while smiling with all thirty-two teeth, wearing 6 inch heels, a brief case on her shoulder, a baby bottle in her right hand a spatula in her left while on the phone listening to someone else's problems, when deep down she knows that she's actually the one that needs to be laying on somebody's couch, airing it all out! It's funny because a couple weeks ago when I threw this particular outfit on, I was dealing with some internal struggles myself.  Now, add in my homemade, bone straight wig, red shoes and matching red clutch, when I looked in the mirror I immediately felt like Mary Jane Paul, from Being Mary Jane!  I can relate to Mary Jane, because on the outside, she always looks like she has it together. If you've watched the show on BET, you know when she walks into a roo...

The Church is Failing: The Young Black Male

This is a taboo subject. That I’ve thought about quite a bit but never had the courage to really vocalize. Courage and fear are funny things because one of them is just as strong as the other, it’s just a question of which one you choose to live in. So today, I choose to live within a courageous light. Why, being a black woman, and an active christian would I have a fear vocalizing my opinion on how black men have been failed by the church? Messages are often misconstrued based on the perception of the reader. Additionally, it’s best practice to NOT add any fire to the flame of those that question institutionalized religion. However, in this case, I think I’d like to get this out with the hopes that some black man, within a particular age, will utilize this post as a reason to do better in reaching young black men. There was a time when the core of the civil rights movement was centered around black men and women within religious faiths. They actively worked together,...
