Leila Lewis is the CEO and founder of Be Inspired PR, an expert on the business of weddings, social media growth, press placements, experiential events, and a mother of 4. She is also the EIC of digital lifestyle platform InspiredByThis.comChances are if you read a story or ogled a dreamy picture of a wedding in a magazine or on social media over the last decade – it’s because Be Inspired PR made it happen.In 2007, after an early career in weddings and events, I launched the world’s first full-service PR company for the wedding industry, Be Inspired PR, when I recognized the gap between the industry’s dazzling talent and media coverage spotlighting those businesses. Be Inspired PR pioneered the explosion of media interest in wedding creatives, names and brands which helped grow weddings into a $60B industry. Fast forward 15 years: my companies have a social reach of 13M+ each month, we’ve expanded our footprint beyond weddings to include real estate marketing, wellness and social impact clients, and now partner with Fortune 100 (as well as emerging brands and industry leaders) to offer strategic PR, branded social content, brand partnerships, and experiential marketing services.Clients including Mindy Weiss, Target, Minted, Bed Bath & Beyond partner with us to bring visibility to the moments that give life meaning -- we are known for delighting customers, winning raving fans, being ever-in-the-know, on-trend and uber-connected to the makers and shakers that lead the wedding, wellness and lifestyle industries.In addition, as someone with experience working with realtors both personally and professionally, I saw a huge disparity between successful real estate agents and their digital footprint. In 2020, I founded The Social Remodel as a place for commercial and residential real estate agents, home stagers, and interior designers to build their personal brands and up-level their social media marketing efforts.I'm a passionate advocate and business coach for creative businesses and female founders anda frequent speaker and media expert on weddings, the business of weddings, social media, and working motherhood.
