World Yoga Premium Listed

It's June! Easter is long behind us and our last post was April 4. But we are (very!) pleased to report that since our last post, World Yoga Festivals Guide is premium listed. However, it took a few more attempts after the hopeful submission on April 4. Two weeks of desperation, frustration when relief finally presented itself with the approval stamp on April 18.

Why it was rejected so many times* and why it was finally approved on April 18? Great question, and we too wish we knew exactly what went wrong.

The best advice and lesson learnt is to keep the document, especially the formatting, as simple and standard as possible. A World Yoga example, the first rejection was in part because we had introduced a different colour for the headers ... a no no. Message - stick with black.

Second best advice - don't give up. Persistence pays off. It may get frustrating, annoying, confusing, but when you finally see the word "Approved" - you cannot deny the sense of achievement you'll feel.

* many is many - 9 rejections before approval
