Star editor-at-large, having failed to make a splash in blogging, is now pinning her hopes on reality TV. Julia, if you're going to make it on the small screen, you need better advisors than a handbag designer and a former hedge-fund analyst. How about someone who's been there? LinkedIn marketer Surya Yalamanchili, a veteran of Donald Trump's The Apprentice, is the guy you need to talk to. Sure, he was fired from the show. All the more reason to seek him out, Julia.
