Verna Law PC is an intellectual property law practice, focused on trademark, copyright, advertising law, and domain name disputes. Contact Anthony at Anthony@vernalaw.com. Anthony Verna: All right, welcome to the Law and Business podcast. How are you doing, Janine? Janine Just: I'm good. Thanks so much for having me, Anthony. Anthony Verna: No problem. So, I'm here with Janine Just. Janine, why don’t you to tell everybody what you do first. Janine Just: Sure. So I’d call myself the chief connectologist of Janine Just, Inc. Anthony Verna: I love that that title you've given yourself. Janine Just: Well, that’s what it’s all about, leveraging the relationships to your best advantage. So, we work with small businesses, emerging brands. Fashion, beauty and technology are our specialties and we work with them on non-traditional PR campaigns, marketing, influencer marketing, and a lot of events. That's particularly where we really shine with clientele and the brands that we work with. And we also have a passion project that's actually gone, gotten bigger and bigger as we've progressed with it called Textile NYC, which is another event series that basically talks about fashion and beauty and how technology is fusing into it more so ever. And it's really becoming predominant in fashion. Anthony Verna: And, and here you are talking to me cause when you think of fashion and beauty, you think of Anthony Verna Law. Gosh, don't tell my apparel clients that. Janine Just: You know, I won’t tell them what you're wearing right now. Anthony Verna: Okay, thanks. You can, you can tell Ralph Lauren what I'm wearing right now. He'll be very, very happy to hear that. Janine Just: The pink looks amazing. Anthony Verna: Wow. Thanks. Thank you, my friend. So, you said a couple of key things that perked up to my years and that is non-traditional marketing and influencer marketing. What does specifically does that mean? Janine Just: We're very strategic in what we do. We don't want to take on a brand unless we have a clear sense of how we want to tackle it and how we want to go about it. So, I know a lot of agencies out there and you know, bless their hearts with what they do, They're continually pitching, you know, different outlets of traditional PR publications, editors, bloggers, all that wonderful stuff. But we really hone in on something that we can do specifically with the brand. Anthony Verna: Social media campaigns, then? Janine Just:: Yeah. As long as we can come up with something that we know is going to be, you know, it's going to be out of the park as far as what we put into it, they're going to get their ROI because it's really hard to quantify public relations and marketing. And it's a gray line because a lot of people come to us and they think that we're sales, you know, we're a sales team, but, it's making sure that you manage their expectations to say, no, we're not. And if you want to, I would probably lean towards a salesperson or you know, a sales force to kind of get you to where you need.
