FAQ: How to Become Socialite of the Year?



"Who is she?" Onlookers seem to wonder when she steps into a room. Her fashion sense is impeccable, or unusual, or there is just a certain something that no one can put their finger on...but it turns heads. The French call it "Je ne Sais Quoi" which literally translates to "I don't know what." This woman carries a quality that cannot be adequately described. In English this quality is called, "charisma." Each year S.A.Monthly looks out for this woman to announce our next Socialite of the Year. To be the next Socialite of the Year one has to be a community leader whose presence has made an impact. This person also has to have the attention of the whole community. Our Socialite of the Year Alumni have gone on to do great things, some ended up on television shows, or started a clothing line, or walked catwalks all over the world...who can you think of who deserves to be featured? Let us know!

It is never too late to get noticed by SA Monthly: 

Each year SA Monthly selects a new socialite, and each year we get asked, "How do I get chosen?"


Nominations or Suggestions:


First, we start posting ads inside the magazine for people to start sending "nominations" and "suggestions" to the magazine. From there, we look into the suggestions. We look for:

Community Presence: 

We look for the web and community presence of our next socialite. Do you think calling this a "popularity contest" is a bad thing? First, we are looking for the next "socialite" and not the next president...that being said we do care about what our socialite does for the community of San Antonio. It is never too late to start your "Socialite of the Year" campaign. These are some suggestions:

-Attend, organize, and participate in community events like Fiesta San Antonio, or local events that we highlight in the magazine.

-Keep track of "SA Monthly Events" and participate (tag the magazine in photos, engage.)


Community Assistance/Involvement: 

Another aspect we look at is community leadership. Have you organized a community fundraiser? Charity event? Or simply a community gatherings? Let us know! Advertise your event with SA Monthly!

Welcome to A-List SA

As the Senior Editor of SA Monthly, I receive hundreds of requests to be featured. When someone is lucky enough to be featured, in an editorial or cover, I am normally left with very many "behind the scenes" shots or extras that don't make it into the magazine. For example: In this issue of SA Monthly our "Property of the Month" came with a video by Gerardo Pando (featured as our video editor earlier this year.) Pando Productions is an additional service for extra online advertising with the magazine. This is especially beneficial for realtors in the area who are selected for "Property of the Month" features. Inside the magazine spread we mentioned "additional video found online." This is an example of one of the newest and most effective ways to advertise with SA Monthly: VIDEO ON FACEBOOK & YOUTUBE https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=414879546074168&id=158587821424893 Besides a full editorial feature tha...
