How to Interview Someone Cool… Its Easy
Tonight I sat down with my laptop and quickly cranked out 5 email interviews.
Just taking some time to think up interesting questions and then emailing them to people.
IT’S SO EASY … That I want to share my formula with you so you can interview all the cool people you know or want to know.
Seriously
Use my technique and help get your friends, neighbors and community role models recognized. Help put the spotlight on them, they deserve it and…this is just to easy for me to do it all myself.
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS
1. First pick a person you want to interview. ( You will need their email address )
2. Next fill in the form below and email it to them.
3. Have them fill it out and then send it back to the LocalsGuide
4. We then print / post interview on the site – DONE

INTERVIEW TEMPLATE=======================DONE
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS Encourage people to edit, change or modify questions to represent themselves the way they want to be represented. It’s better this way and more interesting. PLUS MAINSTREAM MEDIA SUCKS because they always get the facts wrong.
LET PEOPLE TELL THEIR OWN STORY
OK, So I expect to see a flood of interviews coming through over the next few months.
I will do my best to print and feature as many as I can in print and get all of them online as quick as possible.
HAVE FUN and Interview some Cool People!

PS: PLEASE DO NOT ASK IF YOUR PIECE WILL BE PRINTED!
Sorry… I will do my best… to get everyone into the spotlight… but for sure it will go online.
