Thought Leadership Training
PR for Thought Leaders
Media Training and Strategic Marketing for CEOs, Executives, Spokespersons and Leaders
You may have seen your competitors in the national news and said to yourself, “That should have been me.” You may be longing to be recognized for your innovations, creations, or research. Or, you may have a new breakthrough product, program or perspective that is solving the world's most pressing problems that you want to move into the public eye and consciousness quickly. Whatever your reason or aspiration...
This PR thought leadership training program shows you how to become a thought leader and is designed to uniquely position you as a thought leader in the culture today through my proven, proprietary 7-step system that is personalized to you, your personality and your experience.
In this thought leadership program my 7-step proprietary process is designed for turning experts into thought leaders™ and will lead you through the necessary steps to be recognized as a fresh and influential voice in your field who is a expert source on national TV shows, podcasts, print, presentations, panels, and commands substantial speaking, contract and consulting fees.
You don’t get to thought leader status by calling yourself one. You gain the right to be a thought leader when others call you one.
With this thought leadership training you will progress beyond being an expert or respected authority to an in-demand thought leader sought after by the media to comment on breaking news and culturally significant events. Through media training and marketing strategic planning you'll also be primely positioned as an author whose books publishers buy at auction and that readers know and discuss with affection and awe.
You'll discover how to become a thought leader with your current style and strengths and how to add your voice effectively to any public or political debate. You'll also find out what type of thought leader you are.

Every time I’m quoted in a national publication, I say to myself, “Thank you Susan Harrow!” I was not born with a silver tongue; I am constantly refining my skill at talking so people will listen. Susan offered me a template that will serve me for a lifetime. Besides breaking down the fine art of sound bite creation into pieces anyone can master, Susan helped me create sound bites that sound like me. Thank you, Susan.

empowered every time we talk. Susan’s course on sound bites provided laser-sharp focus for my book (content and launch), blog posts and interacting with my clients — and as you know, there’s a lot of noise in the online world about honing your message.
working with Susan just a few short months (3) I landed media placements in outlets that included the Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The LA Times, USA Today, Oprah and Friends, SmallBiz.com, Forbes.com, Monster.com, US News and World Report, Radio-TV Interview Report, Health, Smart Money, The Christian Science Monitor, CNN, National Public Radio, The History Channel, ABC News Now, and more. Susan taught me how to “do media,” on my own.
Relax.
Let's just see if we ignite together.
