The Getting Real With Hilary Show with Hilary Arnow Burns

Title: S2 EP46 | Saving the Number One Female Valet Service in Los Angeles with Gillian Harris

Did you know there were female valet services? I did not, but I certainly received an education today during my fast-paced, exciting, and whirlwind interview today with Gillian Harris.

Gillian started out in the radio business as a reporter, then spent years as a popular, well-known DJ in the LA area, and then, found herself out of a job. She was hired to run a female valet service. After her first ride, she was hooked. For the last 21 years she has been running her own, highly successful company called "Valley of the Dolls." It was named "Best Valet of LA," has served every White House, and has created a sisterhood of female valets.

Gillian is moving on from the business and is looking for an entrepreneurial woman to seize the opportunity to take over her company. To get a feel for your new adventure, please watch the interview.

Thank you, Gillian, for the difference you make for women and for what you are doing for the planet. 

BIO:

Despite the presence of over 100 valet companies in the city, women face significant barriers to entry in this field. While men with no experience can easily secure valet positions, women are consistently turned away. Valet Of The Dolls is the sole exception, offering women a fair shot in a male-dominated industry. Since its founding in 2003, Valet Of The Dolls has built a sterling reputation, becoming the preferred valet service for the entertainment industry and even the White House.

In an era where women's rights and empowerment are under threat, current owner, Gillian Harris, has dedicated 21 years to leading the company with a vision of maintaining this legacy. She is committed to finding a successor who will uphold the company's mission of empowering women. She says, "14.7% of all valet attendants are women, while 85.3% are men." 

Gillian reveals that male competitors are eager to buy her company solely to capture its client base, aiming to eliminate the competition posed by female-led valet service. This stark reality underscores the importance of preserving Valet Of The Dolls. With hundreds of loyal customers and a team of ambitious women, the company’s motto, "A drive for ambition & an Ambition to Drive," epitomizes its spirit.

Gillian is available for interviews to discuss the future of Valet Of The Dolls, the challenges facing women in the valet industry, and her vision for sustaining female empowerment in this unique field.

Let’s ensure that the legacy of female valets continues to thrive in Los Angeles. Your coverage can make a pivotal difference.
