Pictures yes, as of today. I'm using Instagram and my mom using Instagram. In two years I probably won't use
Instagram -- the trend is that younger generation consume more and more through video. People younger than 22
don't read at all, they watch videos. Instagram stories + Snapchat + YouTube channels. YouTube channels =
media of today. YouTube stars = movie stars, singers and TV hosts.
You can start and play with Instagram. Content should be similar loud and exciting as photos with beautiful
women. If it's less interesting that your old stuff it won't replace old stuff. Big ideas will resonate with people.
Inspiring quotes about how to live life will resonate with people. Appearing with somebody absolutely clean and
pure can be a right thing. Leaders of real charities and non-profits. Cats and beautiful natures always win.
I also like idea having YouTube because than you can actually speak. The opportunity is that you have
interesting thoughts to share.
Another idea, since you are an expert in women. You can start supporting gender equality organizations/leaders
empowering women would receive a positive reaction. It will help to more from sexist image as it's seen now to
somebody who treat women as people. Malala and Emma Watson are the leaders to support and be associated
with in this case. (I personally think that this problem, at least for US, is exaggerated but it's a trend)

I think you need to talk to the audience directly. Media is an outdated dying resource. You don't want
anybody to control your publicity. Now media are partially controlling your web presence and formulating
how the world sees you. You can create it by yourself and play with it not depending on anyone.
You can use Facebook broadcast/Youtube if you feel comfortable on video or Medium/Twitter if you prefer
writing.
What will make you be known by your work? If you start sharing your knowledge and your opinion, it's not
much of it on intemet. There is no way for anybody to learn from you online. Should be. Once people start
learning from you they'll appreciate you.
What people want to know:
I. How to earn and manage money?
2. How to be more satisfied with your life?
3. What is going to happen with the world?
To share your thoughts about these questions you can chose either Twitter or Facebook broadcast (you are
charismatic and people will watch you). You won't need to do anything special. Just answer coming
questions. Media will organically pick up the answers and quote you. I also think you can enjoy the process
and have fun doing it.

Another alternative. You can interview famous scientists and your friends for Facebook broadcast or
YouTube. Don't have to be a lot. 10-15 famous respected people, up to 20 min recorded conversations with
each of them.
More traditional and old ways to improve PR:
I. 'Leak' to a top media (New York Times or WSJ) on how much you spend donating science. You are not
commenting. They are calling scientists, scientists are confirming, they are putting together an article. It's
manageable to make sure that scientists they'll call with say good things about you.
2. Your exclusive interview for the media like New York Times. I like your crazy ideas about plants. It
sounds scaly and new which will make it viral. You can share what you think about it. The headlines can be
'Why famous billioner is turning into plant neurobiologist' etc
Another topic for the exclusive - who you change your life after the scandal with prison and etc. Audience
like to forgive and people will have lots of empathy to anybody who decided to live different life.
3. Documentary about you when journalists will follow your life for a few month. Full of meetings with
scientists and about business. This can also be done as it's been secretly filmed and you didn't know it. It'll
form more trust to what they'll see.
4. Your friends whom you're supporting should speak for you.
I didn't see them supporting you in media during the scandal and I think this should be improved. Simply
mentioning you on your interviews as philanthropist and visionary can bring value. Coming to scientific
events with scientists can bring value. Hosting dinners and gathering scientists can bring value.
5. Your book. Topic TBD
You life story is untold. People jealous because they think that most of things you have in life you've got
because of luck. This is not true, it's your intelligence and hardwork. If you tell more details about how you
started and struggled (I'm sure you have stories) it will make audience like you.
Anything from that gives new content about you on the web. SEO optimization can help to pull new content
up within 3-6 months and replace old content.
This is actually interesting to think about that. Your media/web presence is misleading and it can't be fixed by
traditional PR tools and approach. I like that it's lots of work and no typical ways to improve it.
Let me know if any of these ideas resonate with you.
