How Oprah Winfrey Discovered His Channel
Paul Brunson was offering pro-bono matchmaking services at the time when one of his past clients, a writer for O Magazine, reached out.
Interestingly, at the time, Oprah was searching for a “fresh voice” to help develop a new TV show she was working on.
The writer at O magazine gladly recommended Brunson, and Oprah started following his channel.
“When I always look at it, to me it is a powerful story because she ends up offering me a job to co-host a television show with her on her brand new network off of this YouTube series that no one was watching but Oprah, my mother and like two other people,” he said.
