OUR VISION: SOHM WILL EXPAND FURTHER GLOBALLY, ALLOWING WORLDWIDE CULTURES TO BLEND INTO A POSITIVE READERSHIP THAT WILL INCREASE COMMUNICATION AND RELATIONSHIPS, THROUGH THE SHARING OF REAL PEOPLE AND REAL STORIES FROM HOLLYWOOD.

SOHM fulfills a niche that other Hollywood magazines don’t. Tabloid journalism and shocking revelations of infidelity or other personal indiscretions, will never be mentioned in this publication. The professional scope, the experiences and the advice of those featured in the periodical, earned by hard work and discipline, offers the best reflection of how Hollywood can shape opinion and lift the human condition. SOHM is the only publication that has the capacity to change the pejorative aspects of an industry that requires introspection.

OUR MISSION: Shine on Hollywood Magazine began as a concept in which individuals in the entertainment industry would provide true, positive and educational stories of their experiences from the very beginning of their careers as well as their most noteworthy accomplishments. The focus of the interviews revolves around “Real People, Real Stories” in which the magazine explores the history of how one can become successful in a profession where there is difficulty in doing so. These industry professionals can be actors, singers, dancers, choreographers, directors or those who have an important or unrecognized role to play behind the scenes in establishing the finished work many of us recognize today. The stories involve intimate portrayals which specifically highlight the circumstances that reflect their present station in life, without mentioning political involvements or disparaging others.

For many Americans and for those around the world, Hollywood is viewed as an oasis of controversy, due in large part to gratuitous violence and abuse in cinema and television. SOHM seeks to conquer that, without mentioning political involvements or disparaging others, and change this perception with its genuine stories of individuals that are making a difference from the ground up. By helping others in charitable works and contributions, the Hollywood that is not known by the mainstream media or by the vast population, is suddenly recognized by magnanimous talent that has always been a part of a global industry. SOHM seeks the insight of these talented individuals, so they can in turn help youngsters contemplating a life in an industry that with guidance cultivates much promise.

OUR VALUES: SOHM is a work that inspires and accomplishes its mission every month of the year. We do our best in promoting the positive. True stories that support hard work and strength in the entertainment industry shows our readers that dreams can be fought for and achieved. Lifelong goals have a chance for fruition, when we showcase the integrity-filled stories that can hopefully empower those globally to prosper and achieve their goals.

MISSION Dedicated to providing a positive, meaningful and educational experience and to inspire our readers with knowledge and information from creative qualified industry professionals.”

POSITIVE, ENGAGED READERSHIP!

WORLD-FAMOUS ENTERTAINMENT, A-LIST CELEBRITIES, HIGH-END INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS, AN EDUCATIONAL AND A POSITIVE MOVEMENT — SOHM COVERS ALL THIS AND MORE.

"SOHM Hollywood Magazine" You SOHM the World! I have been in the world of journalism for a long time and saw the gradual deterioration in reporting and communicating with the people; it went from reporting to projecting, from facts to gossip, from balance to sensationalism. I was turned off from reading the newspaper. Then you came along and touched my life. You made it your mission to bring to the world the stories of real people. Instead of news of the extraordinary rich doing ordinary things, you went to the ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Instead of taking the easy road, you took the "Road Less Traveled" and demonstrated how magnificently "real people" rise and shine. You set the standard for what journalism and reporting is all about. You have raised the bar. Thank you Shine on Hollywood team for dedicating your time and talent to what is really important in life, goodness. God Bless, Dr. Aida Takla-O’Reilly Former two-time President and current Trustee of the Hollywood Foreign Press / Golden Globe Awards

SOHM is uniquely different because it represents the real VOICE. The voices of the people. Those that don't have a shot, those who don't have a mic, those that would never be given a chance. For one reason or another. But it's not just that. SOHM is special because of what it stands behind. Integrity. A nobility and honor reserved for Kings. Its success is evident and proof of its stellar and humble approach to the message and the reaching it conveys. Love being at the forefront of its purpose. I am so grateful for this feature and forever indebted to SOHM for its generosity and graciousness. ~ VINICIUS MACHADO, ACTOR I love SOHM Hollywood Magazine because this magazine is dedicated to providing a positive, meaningful and educational experience and inspires everybody from creative successful industry professionals with real stories from real people like myself. ~ CAO YONG, WORLD RENOWNED LEGENDARY PAINTER I can't express how appreciative I am for your coverage of my work and stories about our patients from all over the world. You’ve got a truly unique magazine with wonderful integrity and a can-do spirit that’s not commonly found in other publications. Your approach of covering “Real People” and getting that message out to readers interested in these types of features is incredible. ~ DR. DANIEL IVANKOVICH MD SOHM has a very dedicated group of individuals running their publication. They truly take the time to detail their publication, something that is much respected and appreciated by artists like myself. ~ MELENA ROUNIS, DANCER SOHM Hollywood Magazine did the most in-depth profile of my work ever done, and I've been profiled a great deal as a grandson of tobacco company founder RJ Reynolds fighting against Big Tobacco, following my father's death from smoking the Camels and Winstons that made our family fortune. SOHM's writer did a truly excellent job of reporting; I was deeply impressed by how skillfully they handled my story and work. It was brilliant. ~ PATRICK REYNOLDS, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, FOUNDATION FOR A SMOKEFREE AMERICA I loved the way the interview turned out and the experience that I had working with you and your staff was a pleasure from inception to publication. I look forward to reading more and I appreciate your ethics and industry protocol. Simply stellar! ~ JOANNA CASSIDY, ACTRESS

SOHM is one of those rare magazines that makes their subjects shine and helps them elevate their careers and credibility. “Shine On Hollywood Magazine” recently published an in-depth article and interview about my career. Since I appeared in the March 2015 issue, my exposure within the Los Angeles community, and my presence on social media internationally have drastically increased. The quality of this well produced magazine comes from the writing and the graphic design styles, which are very easy to read and also very accessible. The content is very positive and empowering and it adds value to the people being showcased. I am very impressed by the quality of coverage and service that the SHINE ON HOLLYWOOD MAGAZINE offers to its readers and it’s also a great publication for anyone looking for worldwide exposure! ~ PATRICIA CHICA, AWARD-WINNING FILM DIRECTOR AND PRODUCER

SOLUTIONS FOR ADVERTISER SUCCESS

The print magazine industry faces substantial hurdles these days caused by the economic crisis, unsatisfied readers and the rise of new media. The economic crisis, in particular, has led to a decline in the volume of ad pages which, in turn, leads to smaller edition sizes and a perceived lesser value for the readers. One of the reasons readers are no longer pleased with the content of print magazines is that the industry hasn't changed the way the content is presented and doesn't know or understand what subjects the readers want to read about. With the rise of new technology, there has come new forms of media. Most importantly, social media. Social media gives people the ability to communicate, view videos and exchange information with each other instantly through sophisticated on-line tooling.

Magazines and daily newspapers are dying day by day because of internet media. People find it easier to read on screens. Also, it is much more cost effective and, most of the time, it’s free. Because of these changes, traditional advertisement materials like magazine ads are also losing their importance, but that doesn’t stop creative artists.

• Audiences are growing and young adults read them heavily: The number of e-magazine readers has grown more than 18% over the past five years. In fact, 93% of adults overall and an astounding 96% of adults under the age of 35 read e-magazines. • Audiences are expanding across all platforms: The number of e-magazine websites and mobile apps is increasing. Readership is projected to grow rapidly and these savvy consumers of information want to see relevant magazine content in them. • Prompt mobile action-taking: E-magazine readers are the most likely to use a text message to respond to an ad and redeem a mobile coupon versus traditional media. • Advertising gets consumers to act: Two separate sources show that more than half of all readers (56%) act on e-magazine ads and action-taking has increased more than 10% in the last five years alone. The reader has no websites or catalogues to search for as the hyperlinks are embedded right into the ads. When consumers put off looking for information about a product, it is very challenging to recover that consumer. • Spur web traffic and search: Extensive research proves that e-magazines lead traditional media in influencing consumers to click on a hyperlink than to put down a print magazine, go to the computer and start a search for products or services online. This media is ranking near the top by gender as well as across all age groups. In addition, e-magazine ads will boost your website traffic. The bottom line is: e-magazine readers are significantly more likely to make a purchase online.

Most readers of print magazines who are now accustomed to being able to access information instantly on-line are losing interest in traditional magazines . They are out of touch with today's readers and the technologies they use to assimilate information.

• Improve advertising ROI: Based on analysis of client-commissioned cross-media accountability studies, two separate sources found that e-magazines most consistently generate a favorable cost-per-impact throughout the Purchase Funnel. • Contribute most throughout the Purchase Funnel: This is achieved with particular strength in the key stages of brand favorability and purchase intent. • Build buzz: E-magazine readers are more likely than users of traditional media to influence friends and family about products across a variety of categories. E-magazines complement the web in reaching social networking users that marketers increasingly favor to generate word of mouth.

The accessible, dynamic and reputable nature of on-line e-magazines provides a platform for advertisers to powerfully connect with consumers and affect behavioral change globally. Savvy consumers embrace today's technology and connect to the Internet with their desktops, laptops, iPad’s/tablets and other mobile devices. PROVIDING INSIGHT INTO THE SOHM/ READER RELATIONSHIP Today's consumers don't see technology as a separate entity, it’s an organic extension of their lives.
