A new fly-on-the-wall ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ TV series, [starts next Monday] shows viewers why Stephanie Booth is the brains behind a string of successful businesses - she's driven and takes no nonsense. [Take a look ]
And now, it seems, she wants to apply that approach to marketing Llangollen where she has some of her hotels, and a 50-acre home where she has an animal rescue.
Episode one starts with Stephanie hosting a meeting of Llangollen Chamber of Trade - where she's appointed the chairperson. Later, she's seen pounding the streets of the town drumming up new members.
She wants 100 local traders on board - and you get the feeling she's going to get them.
Then we see her taking staff to task at Bodidris Hall, Llandegla, and selling a new £5 lunch menu to customers.
How well Stephanie is received by the TV audience remains to be seen.
She has been in the media spotlight before having had gender reassignment surgery - facing scrutiny at the hands of her peers.
But from the preview I've just seen, she has got one fan already.
It's also going to be great to see our part of the world on the telly.
And, if nothing else, she will have succeeded in raising the profile of Llangollen thanks to TV air time.
Hotel Stephanie, Monday, 2 November, ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ One Wales, 10.35pm
