Fayetteville, NC Native Selected to Cover The Inaugural Carolina Soul Music Awards Presented by KG Music Group

ShaDonna “Mo” McPhaul, widely recognized as The Mo You Know, has been selected to serve as a red carpet correspondent for the Inaugural Carolina Soul Music Awards, presented by KG Music Group. The event marks a milestone celebration of Southern soul music and the artists shaping its sound across the Carolinas and beyond.

Known for her charisma, professionalism, and passion for storytelling, McPhaul has made a name for herself as a trusted media personality and community advocate. Her selection as a correspondent for this historic event underscores her growing influence within the entertainment and media industry. The Carolina Soul Music Awards brings together artists, producers, and executives to honor excellence in Southern soul — a genre rooted in rhythm, emotion, and cultural pride.

For McPhaul, this assignment carried deep personal meaning. “The Mo You Know is no stranger to the red carpet,” McPhaul shared. “But this one felt special because I’m such a fan of King George and Southern soul music in general. It’s more than work — it’s passion.”

The Inaugural Carolina Soul Music Awards, spearheaded by KG Music Group, celebrates the vibrant artists and creative professionals driving the resurgence of Southern soul. King George, an influential artist and entrepreneur, has been instrumental in bringing national attention to the genre through his music and leadership. The event aims to spotlight the region’s talent while fostering connections within the broader music industry.

In addition to her red carpet coverage, McPhaul revealed plans for a future television project titled “Mo Loves Southern Soul.” The concept, currently in development, will feature interviews, performances, and behind-the-scenes stories highlighting both emerging and established Southern soul artists. The show’s mission is to elevate the genre to mainstream recognition and introduce its heartfelt sound to new audiences nationwide.

“I want to use my platform to shine a light on artists who are keeping Southern soul alive,” McPhaul said. “Their stories deserve to be heard, and their music deserves to be celebrated.”

McPhaul’s selection reflects her continued impact as a Fayetteville native representing North Carolina talent on larger stages. Her previous red carpet appearances have included entertainment, business, and community events across the region. Her coverage of the Carolina Soul Music Awards reinforces the connection between local culture and national exposure — an ongoing theme in her media work.

As Southern soul continues to gain traction across radio and streaming platforms, events like the Carolina Soul Music Awards play a vital role in recognizing its contributors and expanding its reach. Through her coverage and upcoming projects, McPhaul aims to help bridge the gap between regional recognition and national acclaim.

Rachel S. Lee Reveals How New Businesses Can Build Instant Credibility “From Zero to Featured”

blank

San Diego, CA – October 1st, 2025 – Rachel S. Lee, founder of GetFeatured.com, has released a new YouTube video, “From ZERO to FEATURED: How New Businesses Can Build Instant Credibility,” revealing her proven framework for helping entrepreneurs, startups, and personal brands get featured on top media outlets quickly, affordably, and strategically.

Lee explains how press releases and guaranteed media distribution allow new businesses to establish authority, improve online visibility, and build brand trust, even when starting from scratch.

The Challenge New Businesses Face

For many startups and personal brands, the biggest challenge isn’t launching a product or service, it’s being seen as credible. Without an established online presence, new businesses struggle to gain trust with potential customers, investors, and collaborators.

“You might have the experience and the skills,” says Lee, “but if your business doesn’t show up online as credible and authoritative, prospects hesitate. That’s where media features change everything.”

Press Releases: The Fast Track to Authority

Lee explains that press releases are the fastest, most affordable way to build instant credibility. Unlike traditional pitching, which can take months without guaranteed results, GetFeatured.com offers guaranteed placements on hundreds top-tier outlets.

These features act as digital trust signals, showing potential customers and partners that your business is legitimate, relevant, and noteworthy.

Building an Online Presence That Sells

In the video, Lee highlights why combining press releases, website branding, and social proof creates a powerful “first impression engine” for startups:

  • Boosts Search Visibility – Keyword-rich press releases rank on Google and push outdated or irrelevant results down.
  • Generates Backlinks – Hundreds of published features create SEO authority.
  • Increases Conversions – “As Seen On” logos on your website and landing pages signal trust instantly.
  • Drives Social Content – Media features can be repurposed into posts, stories, reels, and newsletters.

“It’s not just about getting featured, it’s about leveraging those features everywhere your audience interacts with you,” Lee explains.

Leverage Your First Feature to Get Even More

Lee advises using your first set of media features to secure bigger opportunities:

  • Pitching podcast appearances
  • Landing collaborations
  • Booking speaking engagements
  • Building credibility with investors

A single published press release can open the door to more PR opportunities by showing that your brand is already recognized by trusted outlets.

Beverly Hills, CA – October 8, 2025 – Rachel S. Lee, founder of GetFeatured.com, has released a new YouTube video, “Press Release Myths Debunked: What Actually Works,” where she explains the truth behind common misconceptions and shares the most effective strategies for using press releases to build authority, improve SEO, and grow your brand in 2025.

Lee reveals why press releases are not outdated and how modern distribution strategies, combined with optimized content, can turn them into one of the most powerful marketing tools available to entrepreneurs, consultants, and small business owners.

The Top Myths About Press Releases, And the Truth

Myth #1: Press Releases Are Outdated

Many assume press releases are no longer relevant in the digital age. Lee explains that today’s online press releases are more impactful than ever, thanks to modern distribution networks, automation, multimedia integration, and journalist outreach.

“Press releases have evolved,” says Lee. “They’re no longer just PDFs faxed to newsrooms—they’re dynamic, SEO-rich assets published across hundreds of high-authority websites.”

Myth #2: Press Releases Don’t Help SEO

Lee debunks this by demonstrating how keyword-rich, properly distributed press releases:

  • Improve Google search visibility
  • Generate hundreds of backlinks to websites and social profiles
  • Push down outdated or irrelevant search results
  • Feed AI-driven tools, helping businesses surface higher in recommendations

Myth #3: Nobody Reads Press Releases

The reality? People read what they can find. With strategic distribution and SEO optimization, press releases are published across hundreds of sites, ensuring they’re discoverable and clickable.

Myth #4: Press Releases Are Only for Big Companies

Lee emphasizes that press releases are ideal for small businesses, solopreneurs, coaches, and consultants:

  • Announce product launches or services
  • Showcase achievements and milestones
  • Build brand authority faster than ads or organic posts alone

Myth #5: Press Releases Are Too Expensive

Through GetFeatured.com, Lee has negotiated bulk pricing with top-tier newswires, making guaranteed media coverage affordable while ensuring publication on 400–700+ trusted online outlets.

“We’ve simplified the process,” Lee says. “You don’t need to navigate complex submission platforms or pay inflated agency markups; we handle everything for you, fast.”

Press Releases as a Branding & SEO Strategy

Lee explains that press releases are not just for exposure, they’re an integrated strategy that fuels all areas of marketing:

  • SEO: Get hundreds of backlinks and rank for long-tail keywords.
  • Brand Authority: Use “As Seen On” logos across your site, socials, and email signatures.
  • Content Repurposing: Turn press releases into blog posts, email campaigns, and social content.
  • Visibility Across Platforms: Reach customers, journalists, and search engines simultaneously.

Fayetteville Liberty Professional Basketball Team Set to Launch Inaugural Season at the Crown Complex Arena in 2026

blank

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

 

 

Fayetteville, NC – A new chapter in Fayetteville’s sports history is about to be written. The Fayetteville Liberty, Fayetteville’s first professional basketball franchise since the Fayetteville Patriots (NBA D-League), is preparing to launch its inaugural season in March 2026 as part of The Basketball League (TBL).

 

With the guiding vision of “Building Hope in the Community One Possession at a Time,” the Liberty are establishing themselves not only as a competitive professional basketball team but as a cornerstone of community engagement, youth empowerment, and regional pride.

 

 

 

 

A Team for the City, By the City

 

 

At the helm is Team Market Owner Robert L. Edwards Jr., a lifelong Fayetteville resident and entrepreneur who has worked tirelessly with his leadership team to ensure the Liberty is more than just another sports franchise.

 

“Our mission is bigger than basketball,” Edwards explained. “The Liberty represent the spirit of Fayetteville—the resilience, the culture, and the vision for what this city can be. We are here to win games, yes, but more importantly, to create opportunities, to inspire the next generation, and to unite this community under one banner.”

 

The Liberty will play home games at the Crown Complex Arena, one of the region’s premier sports and entertainment venues. This marks a significant step for both the Crown Complex and the City of Fayetteville, expanding their portfolio of professional sports tenants alongside the Fayetteville Woodpeckers (MiLB) and Fayetteville Marksmen (hockey).

 

The addition of professional basketball helps further position Fayetteville as a regional hub for sports tourism and entertainment, creating new opportunities for local businesses, job growth, and cultural visibility.

 

 

 

 

Hope.Community & Liberty City Ambassadors

 

 

Beyond the hardwood, the Fayetteville Liberty are committed to initiatives that reach deep into neighborhoods, schools, and community organizations. This commitment is embodied in the Hope.Community movement and the Liberty City Ambassadors Program (LCAP).

 

Through these programs, the Liberty are building platforms for the next generation:

 

 

  • Free Youth Camps: Annual basketball and leadership camps, with more than 200 kids expected at the first sessions. These camps emphasize fundamentals while teaching teamwork, resilience, and goal-setting.
  • Scholar of the Year Awards: Students across Cumberland County in grades 1–12 will be recognized each year for achievements in academics, leadership, and service.
  • School Day Game: A special gameday where thousands of students attend for free, combining basketball excitement with lessons in leadership, sportsmanship, and responsibility.
  • Community Givebacks: The Liberty are already active with Alpha Academy, United Way, Build Better Youth, the Dogwood Festival, and others to provide mentorship, resources, and volunteer support.

 

 

“These initiatives make the Liberty more than just a team,” said General Manager Tiras Ray. “They make us a partner in progress, a source of inspiration, and a force for good in Fayetteville.”

 

 

 

 

Partnerships Driving Growth

 

 

The Liberty’s vision has resonated with the business community, bringing together an impressive slate of corporate and civic partners:

 

 

  • Caviness & Cates – One of North Carolina’s leading homebuilders, investing in Fayetteville’s growth.
  • Wawa – A beloved convenience and food brand deepening its footprint in Fayetteville.
  • Tropical Smoothie Café – Promoting healthy living and active lifestyles.
  • Shuttle Buddy – Providing transportation solutions for fans and families.
  • Jerome Scott Insurance – Supporting financial security and community well-being.
  • Build Better Youth – A non-profit focused on youth mentorship and empowerment.
  • Distinctly Fayetteville – The city’s tourism and sports commission, elevating Fayetteville as a destination.
  • Fayetteville Chamber of Commerce – Connecting the Liberty to the region’s business ecosystem.
  • Yellow Crayons of Fayetteville, NC – A creative agency supporting Liberty’s branding, apparel, and distribution.

 

 

“These partnerships represent the backbone of our success,” Edwards noted. “When local businesses, civic leaders, and non-profits come together around a common cause, the entire city rises with us.”

 

 

 

 

Press Conference & Player Combine

 

 

The Liberty will mark a milestone with their official press conference on December 12, 2025 at the Crown Complex Arena. The event will introduce the team to the city, highlight corporate partners, and share the broader vision for the inaugural season.

 

The following day, December 13, 2025, the Liberty will host their final player combine and flagship tryout, where athletes from across the region will compete for a spot on the inaugural roster. This event is expected to draw scouts, media, and fans alike, setting the stage for the Liberty’s first season.

 

The finalized roster will be unveiled in early 2026, with training camp and community activations leading up to the March 2026 season opener.

 

 

 

 

Ticket Sales & Fan Experience

 

 

One of the most anticipated announcements: Tickets for the 2026 Fayetteville Liberty season will go on sale beginning October 31, 2025.

 

Fans can expect a variety of options including:

 

 

  • Season Ticket Packages with exclusive benefits and premium seating.
  • Family Plans designed for affordable, all-ages entertainment.
  • VIP Court-Side Experiences offering unparalleled access to the action.
  • Group Packages for schools, churches, and community organizations.

 

 

“Our goal is to make Liberty basketball the most accessible, exciting, and affordable entertainment option in Fayetteville,” Ray added. “We want families filling the arena, kids seeing their heroes up close, and businesses engaging clients in a high-energy environment.”

 

 

 

 

A New Era for Fayetteville

 

 

The Fayetteville Liberty are not just launching a basketball team—they are igniting a movement. From corporate boardrooms to classrooms, from the hardwood to the neighborhoods, the Liberty are positioning themselves as a unifying force in Fayetteville’s cultural and economic landscape.

 

Their story is about opportunity, vision, and progress. It’s about proving that Fayetteville can stand shoulder to shoulder with any city in the country as a professional sports destination.

 

As Edwards concluded: “This is about more than a game. It’s about legacy. It’s about Fayetteville believing in itself, and together, building something that will last.”

Rachel S. Lee Reveals Five Untapped Ways to Leverage Media Features for Maximum Impact

blank

San Diego, CA – September 26th, 2025 – Rachel S. Lee, founder of GetFeatured.com, has released a new YouTube video, “Ways to Leverage Media Features (Most People Only Use #1),” where she reveals five powerful strategies for maximizing the value of press releases and media features. While most businesses stop after showcasing their “As Seen On” logos, Lee explains how to use media coverage to boost SEO, drive engagement, increase credibility, and attract new opportunities.

 

 

The Missed Opportunity in Media Features

Many businesses view media coverage as a one-time win. But according to Lee, this mindset leaves massive untapped potential on the table.

“Most brands stop at simply showing their logos,” says Lee. “But your media features can be repurposed into dozens of touchpoints that amplify your visibility, authority, and conversions.”

Lee outlines five strategic ways to leverage press releases and guaranteed media features for long-term impact.

The Five Ways to Leverage Media Features

1. Use Media Features for Announcements

Press releases are perfect for making newsworthy announcements:

  • New product or service launches
  •  
  • Book releases
  •  
  • Awards and achievements
  •  
  • Customer success stories
  •  

When written in a journalistic style, press releases increase your chances of being featured on high-authority sites.

2. Boost SEO with Keyword-Rich Press Releases

Lee explains how properly optimized press releases:

  • Help brands rank higher in Google search results
  •  
  • Build hundreds of backlinks to websites and socials
  •  
  • Push outdated or irrelevant search results further down
  •  
  • Improve visibility in AI-driven search tools
  •  

“A single press release can produce hundreds of indexed results and thousands of backlinks,” Lee explains. “And when you publish consistently, you dominate your space online.”

3. Showcase Media Features on Your Website

Adding an “As Seen On” banner and embedding press release links directly onto your site builds instant trust with visitors. Lee recommends:

  • Creating a dedicated “Press” page
  •  
  • Adding logos to your homepage, landing pages, and footers
  •  
  • Using features to increase conversions on sales pages

4. Repurpose Press Releases for Email Marketing

Press coverage provides ready-made content for email campaigns. Businesses can:

  • Send the feature as a standalone email
  •  
  • Highlight it in regular newsletters
  •  
  • Include links in email signatures
  •  

This builds credibility and increases click-through rates.

5. Create Social Media Content From Your Features

Lee emphasizes repurposing media features into content for Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, and Threads:

  • Post direct links to the feature
  •  
  • Use branded graphics, Reels, and Stories
  •  
  • Turn highlights into value-driven captions
  •  

Social proof fuels engagement and improves brand discoverability, as platforms increasingly act as search engines.

The Bonus Tip: Use Media to Get More Media

Lee advises using your existing press coverage to secure even bigger opportunities:

  • Pitch podcasts and interviews using published features as credibility
  •  
  • Reference your placements when reaching out to journalists
  •  
  • Build a strong personal brand narrative for ongoing exposure
  •  

“Media coverage opens doors,” Lee says. “Use your first feature as leverage to land the next one.”

Rachel S. Lee, Founder of Get Featured, Shares How Press Releases Are the Secret Weapon for Marketing, SEO, and Authority Building

blank

Los Angeles, CA – September 15, 2025 – Rachel S. Lee, founder of GetFeatured.com, has released a new YouTube video, “What Are They and Why Do They Matter?”, where she breaks down why press releases remain one of the most powerful yet underutilized marketing strategies in 2025. In the video, Lee explains how businesses, coaches, and consultants can leverage strategic press release distribution to boost SEO, increase visibility, and build instant credibility.

Evolving Beyond Traditional Press Releases

Historically, press releases were used to make announcements, new products, leadership hires, and company milestones, and were sent to newsrooms and journalists in the hope of being featured. But, as Rachel explains, the game has changed:

“Thousands of press releases hit inboxes daily, but most never get picked up by major media outlets,” says Lee. “Today, the real power of press releases comes from guaranteed distribution, keyword-rich optimization, and the ability to strategically control your online presence.”

Through GetFeatured.com, Lee and her team ensure press releases are published across hundreds of high-authority sites, including TV and Radio Broadcasting sites, providing instant credibility and SEO value.

Press Releases as an SEO Powerhouse

In her video, Lee highlights that press releases are now an essential component of any visibility strategy, explaining that keyword-rich press releases:

  • Help businesses rank higher in Google search results.
  • Generate hundreds of backlinks to websites and social media platforms.
  • Build searchable, evergreen content that dominates Page 1 of Google.

She advises business owners to focus on SEO-driven press release strategies by including long-tail keywords, optimized headlines, and backlinks to websites and social profiles to maximize reach.



“Press releases are one of the fastest ways to get fresh, optimized content published across the web,” Lee says. “This signals to Google and AI platforms that you’re relevant, active, and authoritative.”

Authority and Brand Credibility Through Media Coverage

Beyond SEO, Rachel explains how press releases create instant authority by securing placements on well-known media platforms:

  • Businesses can legally showcase “As Seen On” media logos on websites, social media, email signatures, and marketing materials.
  • These logos act as powerful trust triggers for prospects and cold leads.
  • Strategic press release distribution builds a recognizable brand narrative and enhances perception within competitive industries.

“It’s not just about being published, it’s about positioning,” Lee explains. “When prospects Google you and see credible media coverage, they’re far more likely to choose you over competitors.”

Why Consistency Matters

Rachel emphasizes that one press release is powerful, but consistency compounds the results:

  • Publishing monthly or quarterly press releases signals relevance to search engines.
  • Consistent visibility strengthens your digital footprint, helping to push down outdated or negative search results.
  • Each release becomes an evergreen asset that supports social content, blog strategies, and lead-generation funnels.

Through GetFeatured.com, clients receive guaranteed media coverage, a full placement report, and “As Seen On” logos they can immediately leverage for their brand.

Quote from the Editorial Team

“We believe valuable knowledge should be accessible across all industries — not just law. By opening our platform to almost every niche, we’re giving professionals and writers a way to share expertise that can help people make better decisions. The only restrictions are adult and gambling content, to maintain our commitment to a professional, educational space.” – Legalese Decoder Editorial Team
