5 Ways To Be An Amazing Titleholder

Let's say you win your pageant...how do you become an amazing titleholder? What makes a girl more memorable as a titleholder than another? What could you plan to do with your year (or say in your interview) that will make you stand out?

Here's FIVE ideas:

1. Be active: Don't just get crowned and do nothing with the crown. The crown is an opportunity, a microphone, a platform; use it wisely. Volunteer in your community, engage with people, and aim to make a difference.
2. Journal: track every mile you travel, important people you meet etc. In fact, write down the details of what you did at each appearance, so when you are asked about your year or need content for your next interview, you don't have to struggle for material...you already created it.
3. Be a role model: don't just be a role model when your crown and sash are on, but instead, strive to be a role model in everything you do. Engage with people, smile, make connections, be positive...especially in the world of social media - one bad thing will follow you forever.
4. Work with your director: you were crowned because the judges thought you'd be a great ambassador for that particular program...well, that program belongs to a specific director. Be respectful of their wishes and policies, communicate often, and really try your best to help build the program for the next year. They should want you to never leave vs want to get the new girl in as quickly as possible.
5. Recruit: every girl you meet is a potential contestant. Every mom you meet is a potential pageant mom. Know your marketing verbiage and do your job.
