Today is Part Two of Reinventing Yourself.  We figured, given the economy and what's been happening, that we might gather the stories of a couple of folks who have gone through this adventure and what they are doing.  Yesterday we spoke with Thomas Allen who quit his job as a writer and editor for a respected magazine and decided to "go it alone".

Today we're visiting with Claire Celsi a well known public relations professional known to many as The Public Relations Princess who, up until six weeks ago worked for one of the regions best known advertising agencies.  But, then cam "downsizing" and Claire has been forced to "reinvent" herself.  Come and learn from a PR pro what she's had to do...to get noticed, find work and still keep her amazing sense of humor!  Claire Celsi...today on Insight on Business.

In addition we're following some other business, marketing stories:

• Internet Radio - So just how "real" is this thing?  We've got a surprise.
• The "Service Industry" - An inability to...serve?  We'll talk about it.
• Commercial Real Estate - What's coming, and what's up with this industry? 

Come on by for a view...and a listen.  We're on today from 12:30p - 2:00p Central on Macs World Live (here is that link) all part of Des Moines Local....Live!
