Susan Harrow is THE go-to media coach for any woman entrepreneur who wants to have a strong media presence.

Susan Harrow is THE go-to media coach for any woman entrepreneur who wants to have a strong media presence. After working with her, I felt MUCH more prepared to skillfully navigate my appearances, ranging from everything from morning lifestyle shows to hard-news segments on Fox Business. I recommend Susan to all my clients who are ready to rock the media. If you have the chance to work with Susan, jump on it.

~ Ali Brown, Entrepreneur Mentor featured on ABC's "Secret Millionaire," dubbed “The Entrepreneurial Guru for Women” by Business News Daily

Susan's guidance and attunement are unparalleled in the industry.

Susan Harrow is a course-changer: she profoundly alters the way I approach my online presence, new book, and virtual medical practice. I feel supercharged and 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.

Susan helps me clarify and put into action my new integrative medicine packages efficiently and effectively. Her framework makes me think differently about what I do and how to expand my place in the world as an integrative physician, thought leader and hormone specialist.

While she calls herself a media coach, her influence is far more broad and deep. Her guidance and attunement are unparalleled in the industry. In short, Susan Harrow is a genius and her influence on me is nothing short of miraculous. I’m thankful to have her on my team and suggest you add her to yours.

I feel more confident with how to use communication techniques like pacing, pausing, rhythm, and vocal variety

Because of Susan's media coaching I’m much more aware of my communication style and when the stories I tell land. I now know how to leave out details that don’t connect. You’ve continued to challenge me during role-plays of difficult scenarios so I can refine my responses and get a better outcome from various people and interactions.

I’ve refined several stories of origin so they are more powerful and impactful. I feel more confident with how to use communication techniques like pacing, pausing, rhythm, and vocal variety to frame, headline, and deliver content that holds the interest of my diverse audience during long presentations. We’ve also delved into the nuances of some behaviors and habits which I wasn’t aware of that I’ve refined in short order. Thank you for your guidance.

I liked Susan a lot, she has a great personality and is very disarming.

Definitely very useful to practice talking about issues and cases in the interview chair. Susan Harrow's media coaching definitely helped me to see how I come across on camera. I liked Susan a lot, she has a great personality and is very disarming.

"I feel super confident + comfortable + I have Susan to thank for it."

Prachee Kale

I'm Prachee Kale, I'm the co-founder of Think.Design.Cyber and I've been working with Susan for the last four months on Media Coaching and Business Development, as well as crisping up my message in my own personal brand. I have to say, it's been a wonderful journey working with Susan one-on-one. I have evolved quite a bit, and I'll quickly tell you about my story as to why I came to Susan.

I discovered her through my online search, and I reached out to Susan asking for help in getting me prepared for media interviews and public presentations. I thought I was always good at giving public talks, I was not afraid of speaking to people or being on a stage, but being in front of the camera was something that was challenging for me to do. When I went to the site and read more about Susan, I was very, very impressed with her credentials.

I was impressed with the stories and testimonials that she had on the website, so we talked and it was love at first sight for me when I first spoke to her. She was very kind and gracious with her time in speaking with me and understanding where I'm coming from, my background, my journey. The work I do is quite technical, even though it is focused on helping cyber professionals become stronger leaders, but there was an element of specialization that needed to to happen. Of me having to appear on media as a thought leader, as an expert, as a trendsetter.

In that first conversation, Susan and I really hit it off from a chemistry standpoint, from our goals and the way we operate, so that was great and that was my starting point. Over the last three or four months, we've gone down to a very personal level – mindset, neurology, physiology – in getting ready to be on camera, as well as learning the technicalities of speaking in front of people, speaking on camera, the long versions, the short versions, the messaging I wanted, how I wanted to show up, and all of that.

It's been a tremendous self-discovery journey for me, more than even getting ready for the camera. I feel super confident and comfortable doing that and I have Susan to thank for it. Now I absolutely feel confident, I understand how the industry works, I understand what is required. We're still working through refining some of the techniques that I have learned, but I feel fairly confident that tomorrow, if I'm called for an interview or to give a talk, I have my thoughts together, I have my messaging together, I have my confidence together to get on stage or in front of the camera. To talk to people and share my message and the gift that I bring to them.

In the early days of Susan and I working together, what I discovered about myself was that despite having done corporate presentations in very formal settings in front of an audience on stage, the idea of getting in front of camera or even positioning myself as an entrepreneur in front of an audience was very intimidating. And while I thought I was a great public speaker, intellectually understood it, internally I was feeling very lost. I felt like my confidence had disappeared, I felt like my composure had disappeared, and I didn't know how to show up on camera.

I didn't know how to show up with this particular topic that I am so passionate about, and Susan really helped me rediscover what I would say and ignite or revive that confidence and that faith that I can get on camera get in front of people, have tough conversations, have entertaining conversations and educational conversations with the audience around the topic of cyber security. Especially serving cyber security women, serving introverts and helping them find their voices for the mission of cyber security.

I really have Susan to thank for helping me find that spark again and reigniting that fire. I highly recommend Susan. If you are considering hiring her, I would say absolutely, yes, go for it! You will not be sorry, you will only come out a better person, a more confident person, and you will own your message, own your voice, and own your power. I am so grateful to Susan for the person that she has helped me become, and rediscovering a part of me that I knew was there and also discovering parts of me that I didn't know existed.

I'm so grateful to Susan, absolutely go for her!

"Susan was absolutely masterful in helping me communicate my message."

~ Mary Jane Mapes,
CSP, Professional
Speaker

Mary Jane Mapes

Hi, I'm Mary Jane Mapes and I've been a professional speaker and Executive Coach throughout the United States and Canada for over 25 years. I'm here today to share with you a recommendation for Media Coach Susan Harrow. I asked Susan a couple of months back if she would help me prepare for a television interview that I was going to be participating in. The interview was only going to be three and a half to four minutes long, and so my quandry was, how do you say what you want to say in three and a half to four minutes when you share that time with the person that's interviewing you?

Well, I'll tell you, she was absolutely masterful in helping me do that. There were a number of things that Susan did: number one is she made sure that I was clear about my intent for being there, in other words, what was my purpose, so that that purpose came through loud and clear when I did the interview, regardless of what I was talking about.

The second thing she did was to make sure that each of my bullet points – and I say bullet points because you can really only speak in bullet points with a little bit of follow-up afterwards – that each of those bullet points was clean, it was clear it, was piffy, it was thought-provoking, it caused people to sit up and say, “Whoa, I want to hear more about what that's all about.”

And then she helped me take the message that supported that and say it in such a way that the words were eye-catching. I say eye-catching because they're visual, ear catching because they make you sit up and want to listen to it, and they were done in a way that was so concrete.

I happen to be a storyteller, so my stories are typically anywhere from five to eight minutes long. In a three and a half to four minute interview, you cannot do a five minute story, you can't really do a 30 second story. So, she helped me take these long stories and literally collapsed them to the point where I got the essence across, the punch across, the meaning across, in 15 seconds. I'd say between 30 seconds or less. She was just masterful at it.

She also helped me to organize. And by that, I mean I have done probably three interviews now, and she helped me take those interviews and organize them in a little different way. So, I didn't come in each time and have an interview that sounded pretty much the same as it did before, even though the subject was different. She helped me actually organize it differently so that it seemed like a very different approach to a very different story.

She told me about things like b-roll and how to prepare b-roll for the producer that would actually enhance the overall three and a half minutes. She talked about props that I could use. I did actually incorporate a couple of props, it added tremendously to three and a half minutes, I know it does that when I speak but I had no idea how powerful it would be in the three and a half minutes that I was being interviewed. She also made sure that every single aspect of that presentation supported the point that I was going there to support. I just can't speak highly enough about her.

The best thing is she makes sure that you get everything you want to say in, in the time allotted. And of course, you come off looking like a star. But not not only does she help you look like a star – because of the way she helps you organize and the way she suggests that you actually help your interviewer or the producer prepare for the show – she actually helps your interviewer look good, too. The best part is not that you look like a star, but the very best part is that they ask you back. They say, whoa, that was good! So, I've been back three times now and it looks like I'm going back a fourth time. So, I would say, if you are looking for a Media Coach, you want to take your head, turn it around and say where's Susan Harrow because she's the one you're going to want to take a look at.

"It was interesting + very worthwhile + far surpassed my objectives."

~ Tom Kirkham,
CEO IronTech Security + Kirkham.IT

Tom Kirkham

The biggest takeaway is what we were just talking about, it's taking what I do every day for 30 minutes or an hour and a half and understanding that the format of television or whatever these other media types may be is two minutes, instead of 45 minutes, to communicate so much about the Cyber Security business and Cyber Security defenses. That's really been my biggest takeaway; it takes me out of my comfort zone. I've got more than one company and I'm successful on a bunch of different things and I and I've always blazed my own trail. Right or wrong, I make my own decisions, so I'll only have myself to blame if I don't do something right.

And even in this case, getting coached is something that’s hard. I think I'm the coacher, I practice what's known as servant leadership and I'm there to serve everybody else and to hopefully coach them if they ever need it or get them a coach and things like that. I'm not accustomed to that, it takes me out of my comfort zone. It was absolutely a learning experience, you just got to remind yourself to keep an open mind and absorb as much as you can. You can't take it all back and apply every bit of it, it's just a lot of information to digest, but when you have some time to reflect on it, you realize that oh, that's what this meant. Then you can apply it to your life and whatever else you're trying to do.

This is going to be very valuable for our Media Kit and everything that we're doing going forward with podcasts and other platforms as we continue to educate people. It was all great, and it's intense, it makes you uncomfortable, it's one of those things where you’ve got to tear them down to build them back up. It was an interesting experience and I don't regret it at all, it was very worthwhile and far surpassed my objectives.

I want to give you a shout-out. Jenny and I did a podcast interview yesterday and I think it was the best one we’ve ever done. I feel like we brought our energy, our passion and our rhythm to it. It was different than when we’ve done other podcasts before this. For one thing, Jenny and I prepped before. We asked ourselves the questions you taught us: Who is our audience? Who are we speaking to? What is the message we want to get out? What is our call to action? I had your printout for the podcast interview we prepped for in front of me so I could touch on all these points. We had fun and the host was really impressed!

Since my first book in 2008 you have been an inspiration. I just want to reach out and thank you for leading me to the top of the charts and ensuring my poise and confidence along the way. What's funny is I've worked with a number of people in the past 2 decades, and bought a bazillion products. I still have yours. And one of the most valuable things you ever taught me, the one that has led to the most success, was how to speak in soundbites. So simple once you master it, but so rarely used that you instantly become the producer's favorite.

Susan shared a lot of great advice, skills, techniques, and feedback on each of us personally. I think the two media coaching sessions were valuable for me (having not done any media training before) as an introduction to some basic ideas about delivering talking points, having good sound bites and getting my point across, and presenting myself on TV.

~ ACLU Attorney

Susan has a superhuman capacity for distilling big, complex ideas into TV- and radio-friendly nibbles.

I had a media training session with Susan Harrow, who has mastered the art of soundbite-sized storytelling. She has a superhuman capacity for distilling big, complex ideas into TV- and radio-friendly nibbles. Consolidating your thoughts into short and sweet soundbites isn’t “cheesy” or “superficial.” It’s actually an exquisite art form. And like any art form, it takes disciplined practice to master. As a professional wordsmith myself, I’m a little bit smitten.

Susan is able to really explain things and put things together in a way that makes it feel deceptively simple.

Publicity, Branding + Media Training Workshop Tulum Lisa Yeung MD, Visionary, Integrative Coach, TED Talk Speaker

She's able to really explain things and put things together in a way that makes it feel deceptively simple but clearly a lot of thought and work and experience has gone into it and in a way that is digestible and accessible no matter who you are and where you are.

Hi! I'm Lisa Yeung. I'm a doctor and integrative coach and I am a Healer and Speaker. For me in particular, especially with the stage in which I am with my career, with my business, and my branding really. I'm in a stage where I am ready and it's time for me to put myself out there more in terms of my messaging to receive more publicity so that I can impact even more people. So the biggest takeaway and the message that I took to heart from Susan's wonderful talk and workshop with us was to be very intentional with our messaging and in fact, reflecting and tuning in and clarifying and refining that with so much intention and purpose prior to taking all the actions that we think we need to take in order to put ourselves out there. That intention, that preparation is the foundational work that when things start to unfold and opportunities come to us then we're ready within a moment and so there isn't any surprise or any inconsistency in our message. I feel like that's something that I really needed a reminder of and it was really helpful for me and is exactly perfectly timed for what I need right now in terms of building with intention in a way that sets a solid foundation so that it'll help catapult me to be able to help even more people going forward.

Susan, she is so incredibly special. She has this grace and poise that is so humble and unassuming and yet there's so much wisdom, and experience, and skill, and expertise behind this beautifully kind and loving demeanor. So she's able to really explain things and put things together in a way that makes it feel deceptively simple but clearly a lot of thought and work and experience has gone into it and in a way that is digestible and accessible no matter who you are and where you are. And she does it in a way that is inviting doesn't make marketing or publicity or branding feel overwhelming and it's a very special and unique skill that shows her expertise and mastery and really she's beautiful to work with. She makes you light up and feel excited about it too when this is a topic that can be intimidating and overwhelming for a lot of people. Her energy, her way of being and her way of teaching and expressing it and guiding is just so incredibly special and beautiful that makes you enjoy the process and want to continue and really feel great about it. Susan is incredibly special and I really highly recommend her.

You just have that wisdom and vast expertise that streamlines everything and gets to the point.

I don’t know what I’d do without you. I’m learning so much. You just have that wisdom and vast expertise that streamlines everything and gets to the point. I trust what you say because of your experience. Other people claim to do the same thing but don’t have the same level of experience as you. I appreciate your even-keeledness and that you’re so detail oriented. Thank you for your support and truth telling.

Your sound bites really work! I won the company contest and will be going to Vegas!

I wanted to share an exciting experience that was a great success for me with your sound bite course. I bought the course for my business, but you mentioned that sound bites can be used in every aspect of your life - and you were right! For my day job, I work with Hewlett Packard in HR. They recently announced a contest for HR professionals to win an invitation to HP Discover which is a large, yearly conference held in Vegas. I put together a video presentation and used your sound bite techniques to get my message across. The instructions for the pitch was to keep things concise, creative, and impactful. A sound bite was the perfect solution.

I want you to know that it was announced today that I won the contest and will be going to Vegas! I'm thrilled at the results of the project and I owe it to you for your sound bite advice. You're amazing! I used the first technique you taught in the course - headline, 3 points, and epiphany.

Your sound bites really work! I love this course and am very excited to use your media coaching to achieve my goals! Thank you so much!

I got a $15,000 speaking engagement as a direct result of Susan Harrow’s Signature Sound Bites course. I tripled my speaking fees because of what I learned in Susan’s course. This is absolutely the best investment I’ve ever made. You are life changing for me!

Susan Harrow is the premiere expert marketing strategist and media coach that I trust to help me create and design my Olympic peak performance coaching programs, national media appearances, and entrepreneurial goals.

"I was able to take all of my ideas + get them down to the DNA."

~ Kay Allison, Entrepreneur, Author + Leader of an alcohol-free community

Kay Allison

This weekend I was able to take all of the ideas that I had about my topic – which were voluminous because I've been thinking about this for a long time – and get them down to the DNA, and to make my points with stories and statistics that really make the message pop. So, my biggest ‘aha’ is that appearing on television is a completely different skill set than being on a podcast or writing a blog. And simply being around the expertise of Susan really put me in an environment where I could grow and I could learn something that I knew innately that I would have some capacity for, but I really did not have the skills. And so, I'm delighted to have those skills, and I sure as heck hope that I get to use them.

"I got a standing ovation and two checks for $100,000."

~ Dr. Ibrahim Jaffe, President University of Spiritual Healing & Sufism

Dr. Ibrahim Jaffe

Hi everybody, this is Dr. Ibrahim Jaffe, I'm the president of the University of Spiritual Healing and Sufism in Napa Valley, California. The University is a new University that is bringing a different philosophy out to the world. Personally, I felt that as the new spokesperson for the University I needed some more tools to really be able to make effective change and be able to make the University sustainable. I heard about Susan Harrow and her course Your Signature Sound Bites, how to convey the right messages you want in business. It was recommended to me from a friend of mine who is down in the Miami area.

So, I took her course and was very deeply pleased with what she gave me on a lot of levels. She helped me work out the messaging of the University and how to bring that message out in a very consistent way to the public. The course itself forced me to go deep into really making the choices of what that message was and how to format it, how to use it to be able to reach the people that I wanted to reach and bring to this University. Now, at that time, we were seeing on our teleclass introductory calls anywhere from 100 to 150 people consistently within a short period of engaging in Susan's course, which I would say would be something like maybe six to eight weeks.

And with working on it fairly diligently, we started to put out some new advertising, and I was using the messaging that Susan had taught me. The results of the first course that we did was that the numbers jumped up to 700 people from the 100 to 150 people. I spoke to the University about this; there was a gathering and I spoke to the class and told them about my vision, and the messaging I was using was what I had learned in this course. I shared what we were trying to build here out in Napa Valley.

As I finished speaking – and I could feel the teaching moving through me – the class stood up and gave me a standing ovation for the vision. Shortly after that, about an hour later a man walked up to me and said, “Can I talk to you privately?” I said, “Yes, of course,” and we sat down in the garden. He said, “My wife and I have listened to your vision and we've been very deeply inspired by it,” and he reached in his pocket and pulled out a hundred thousand dollar check that he gave to me.

To make the story even more interesting, three days later another woman who was sitting in the class came up to one of my assistants and reached into her pocket and pulled out a second hundred thousand dollar check and gave it to him. We now have two hundred thousand dollars to begin the next process and phase of development of this University. So, I really feel a very deep thank you to Susan Harrow and her course, and I would highly recommend it to any of you who are seeking to bring out an important message to the world. So, thank you very much, and thank you Susan.

Hi, I'm Maggie Marshall. I heard Susan Harrow over 15 years ago and I wrote her name down and stuck it in a file and said to myself, “If I ever need an expert PR media coach, that's the woman I want to hire.” And I had the pleasure of taking her webinar class on soundbites. I loved the class and learned tons. As an experienced public speaker, I learned so much about radio and TV and interviewing, and a different way of looking at our clients, or potential clients, I should say.

I've also increased sales of my book Food is the Frosting, Company is the Cake, and my business, The Party Whisperer, by thousands of dollars after the very first month of taking her class. Sign up, it'll be a wonderful experience, you'll love working with Susan. And be sure to participate fully in all the classes, take the Q&A and get yourself a soundbite buddy. If you want to increase your business, sign up for this class.

The Your Signature Sound Bites™ program turned around my entire business.

Steve Jobs talked about 'connecting the dots" in his famous Stanford College commencement speech. The Sound Bites program did just that, it connected the dots of my life experience, education and career in a way that attracts attention like a magnet. Since then my book, The Renegade Leader, has been picked up by a major publisher and after hearing my sound bites they committed to a global marketing campaign. I've been selected for radio shows and interviews and given the opportunity to write a column for my ideal clients. All of this was within two months of completing the program.

In addition I can confidently present my offerings in a manner that attracts clients and justifies high value fees.

I've not written a fan "thank you" letter since meeting Bono and his family years ago.

I've not written a fan "thank you" letter since meeting Bono and his family years ago. Thank you for providing the services and information. I recently applied the ideas from your spokesperson training of connecting youthful past with present conditions to be VERY helpful in a training event I spoke at last week. There was a little "a-ha" moment when I read it, then "sparks" when I practiced it, and finally "fireworks" when I applied the connective tissue during my presentation. Thank you so much for your insights and I hope our paths can cross someday, it would be a welcome chance to thank you in person.

When Susan presents you can tell it's coming from so much experience and it's been tested and it's the real stuff.

Publicity, Branding + Media Training Workshop Tulum, Anna Choi, Energy Master, Intuitive, Qigong Instructor, Taekwondo Black Belt, Author, & TEDx Speaker

Hi I'm Anna Choi and I am founder and CEO of SolJoy and I'm an Energy Master. First, I loved your kind of mad fill-in-the-blank Your Signature Story. That [ __ ] can take like years or like months to develop and you were literally like we're going to do in five minutes. I'm like really? And we did! And not just one, but multiple. You gave me ease and a way of being adaptable and remembering that this is a living statement and you again connected the dots where I have worked with many copywriters, worked with many professionals and no one could quite articulate what you did very easily which is from your years of experience of look you need to have like three or four on hand to obviously share with different audiences. That just gave me freedom to have like five because I've always had and thought that was bad and wrong. I was trying to narrow it down into one and that was driving me crazy so I was like, "Oh My God!," and then the simplicity of it also because mine's kind of always too long and I'm trying to like pick which things because I thought I only had to do one, all this stuff right? So now I'm like there's an ease and a flow that allows me to be all of me. Later on at dinner when we're having a one-on-one, I also super appreciate it, you're like no you can be whatever you want, you don't need to pick one. Which again is a reminder but like the way you can hear, and listen, and integrate so that I'm like at peace is so valuable and treasured. So that was a big, big, big one.

Then the other piece is just when Susan presents you can tell it's coming from so much experience and it's been tested and it's the real stuff. I have worked with many PR people, not that she's just in PR, but media training, and as a speaker for 20 years I can tell how valid all the points are. So she gave just so many, I don't want to give it away, from her talk but so many tips around the top you know what are the four things to do when you strategize and prepare for pitching to the PR like don't just send out the press release: like what are the things that you're going to do to be very prepared and what are the questions you ask yourself to first be clear within before you even go out and then go so that it just hits. A lot of people just focus on the doing, and the outside, and the effort but this was always a missing piece that I know was needed but I haven't had guidance or clarity, so I have now a framework to work with that I'm so, so grateful for.

Your materials are amazing.

I read your website and book and your way of giving out that information is incredible. I feel you have a lot to offer. I’ve never seen such an informative website that’s really well written. Your materials are amazing.

You helped me get unstuck in the one thing I have the most trouble in - my messaging.

After so many years of indirect connection, taking your original sound bite course and following your blogs, it was an absolute privilege and pleasure to connect with you one-on-one the way we did.

Our call changed MANY things. You helped me get unstuck in the one thing I have the most trouble in - my messaging. It's so frustrating for a writer to be stuck here. And I mean, you REALLY helped me get unstuck.

You know, there is something really attractive about a person who does what they do extremely well. An actor, an artist, a cook, a martial arts expert … it doesn't matter what they do or what they are like, it's an extremely attractive and fascinating quality. That's what it was like with you on that call. You do what you do extremely well, like a maestro.

Not only that but you explained it in such a way that I could then take off running with it. I felt like someone who is in a dark windowless room batting their hand around trying to find the light switch - and you put my hand on the switch! (I still need to work on getting higher wattage bulbs in … but the light is on.) I've been using the wording we came up with since our call and it works. I'm actually changing the structure of my site based on the light bulb moments during our call and it's so much better, so much clearer.

What a relief to know that I can just use bite-sized concepts in my work instead of trying to pin the totality of my super organic, fuzzy, galaxy-wide, universe-deep process and benefits into 7 words. And funnily it feels MORE tangible and deep now that I can do that.

I also deeply appreciate that you sensed that I am a journey/process-driven kind of person and spent the time needed walking it. Seriously, thank you. And as a bonus you 'get me'.

~ Christianna Caeliss, Romance Expert, Mentor and Coach

That is really great.... thank you Susan for helping me getting self-confidence and courage to do that!

My big media win out of this was I got a company to sponsor 10 radio shows for me.

I just want to tell you how happy I am with your program. It's VERY professional and I feel like I'm getting good value for my investment already.

Thank you so much.

I've had so many wins from your course. It was just the right thing for me at the right time. It really made me focus on communicating what I am about, which lead me to rethink that entirely...not changing my basic essential purpose, but seeing it in a new way and being able to articulate that thread that has been running through my life, and then see how I can clear the leaves off that path and move with more confidence anew in that direction. So it has been, all in all, quite a transformation.

My big media win out of this was I got a company to sponsor 10 radio shows for me. They are paying the publicist to book me and I am promoting their product as well as my book and website (and I got the idea I could do this with other products I know too). I am working on my sound bites for those interviews.

A lot of changes are happening in different parts of my life after doing your course. It really helped me see myself in a new way and now changes are following.

And I've been loving working with Margo. You picked a perfect match for both of us. I knew this course was right for me, but I didn't know how RIGHT it would be. Looking forward to more…

One of the things that really stood out for me is the thoughtfulness and how Susan approaches the subject.

Publicity, Branding + Media Training Workshop Tulum Galina Lipina, PMP, PCC, Speaker, Coach

Hi my name is Galina Lipina and I'm an adaptability and resilience coach and trainer and I'm also a project manager. I've just attended one of Susan's workshops on getting ready for the media.

Susan: What was your biggest aha or your most valuable takeaway? What pops to mind?

Galina: So one of the things that really stood out for me is the thoughtfulness and how Susan approaches the subject because I've done a lot of work with my social media and I have a digital media kit and I go on podcasts and speak on stages and one of the things that stood out Susan said that most people who think they want publicity they're not ready for it and that before you go and you spend Budget on you know PR, getting your ducks in a row so that when you go out there your message is clear, you know who you're talking to, you're very comfortable in how you express the main point so that your audience is not confused and it's more clear and like your people get attracted to you. So kind of like that pre-work is very important. I never realized that most people skip that step, myself included. Sometimes we're just like oh let's just get on podcast and it's fine and we'll figure out later and sometimes that's what we need because we need to start action but sometimes there comes a point in a business in the brand stage to spend a little bit more energy, time and attention on getting that message clear and break it down and plan out the content and plan out your website and plan out whatever speeches that you do and the points you want to cover in your talks or podcasts a little bit more clearly uh and in a more refined way. So that's what I really appreciated.

Susan: And what did you appreciate most about me? Which is an awkward question to ask.

Galina: I appreciated - authenticity and the ability to talk about PR and the stage but sometimes that question could be or like that topic can be a little of like what mask do we want to put on and what impression do we want to do in the world through the media? And yes it's an intention through, but it's more like how do we authentically express what's there and I kind of loved that you said, "I work with PR but I'm an introvert!" I'm like that's a perfect combination so even that is just like the realness and like the depth of the conversation that we went to was a really really nice thing.

Susan Harrow’s refined consciousness, naturalness and stunning decency, turns media coaching into a path of enlightenment.

Working with you feels like I am paying for talent, quick-wittedness and an enormous amount of generosity. So worth it…!

You’re freaking brilliant!

I didn’t know you really respond back to emails—just wanted to let you know I read your book Sell Yourself Without Selling Your Soul in the library over a weekend and went to Amazon and purchased it. Now I am a branding consultant. I quit my day job as an account executive in TV.

You’re freaking brilliant! My favorite line “Doing Publicity says that you are willing and able to handle public scrutiny. That you have the confidence and ability to withstand the judgment of others no matter how harsh. You have guts”. Your books are a staple to young woman progressing in Public Relations and maintaining virtue and integrity. I’ll be speaking positives about your name along my career.

I've taken the advice in your Sound Bites Course and use it in everything from media pitches, on air talks, to dialogue in the tv shows I'm producing. Everything, quotable.

Susan put me on a whole new path and changed my world. I'll always be grateful to you for that!! 🙂 Susan was my very first professional coach. I purchased her program on book pitching when I was ramping up my publicity for my documentary. That movie turned into a book and the work that I did with Susan is what directly led to that book becoming an award winning best seller. Her advice is rock solid. She's more than knowledgeable, she's passionate and cares about her clients. I've referred many would be authors to her programs, so they get it right the first time. The other program that she offers that is invaluable is the Soundbite System, teaching you to speak in quotable bites. I've taken that advice, and use it in everything from media pitches, on air talks, to dialogue in the tv shows I'm producing. Everything, quotable. That's the key to success and Susan has it all wrapped up in a nice bow for you!"

After implementing several of Susan's suggestions I was shocked to discover that I had more than doubled my average monthly income in July, exceeding what I had been making prior to leaving my full-time job that February.

I gave myself six months to try running PR Couture full-time before looking for another job, and I had budgeted accordingly. But I was still freaked out and operating from a total ramen-for-dinner mentality in preparation for what I assumed would be a bumpy transition. After implementing several of Susan's suggestions, as one of her private consulting clients, (and working my tail off!), I was shocked to discover that I had more than doubled my average monthly income in July, exceeding what I had been making prior to leaving my full-time job that February. While working with Susan it became quickly apparent that by giving my business attention and focus, it's completely possible to do this work full-time. It's now a year later and I haven't dusted off my resume once.

What I'm finding specifically in your sound bite course is that you believe we can do it.

Thank you so much. What I'm finding specifically in your sound bite course is that you believe we can do it. So when I'm not sure I can, I'm banking on that. You do that by the way you answer everybody's questions by being totally accepting of the questions. And totally helping them see that they have the answers. You allow each person you speak with to own what they have. You're coming and shining the flashlight on that instead of dispensing wisdom from above. So thank you I really appreciate that.

I can't thank you enough for providing the tools and encouraging and supporting along the way and making me feel that I had just as much reason to be here as everyone else.

I just want to thank you for providing some really valuable tools. I am really working on expressing myself in a better, more effective way. When I first joined your course I was really intimidated at the beginning because of all the big business owners and successful authors and people in the course I felt a little less than zero at points. But I have some good news to share. While I was in your course I was at the same time a candidate for a really wonderful career position and I also was also working on starting my own consulting business and training business. During the course I used your techniques and the lessons that you provided along the way alot from this Q&As. and the great thing that happened is that I will be starting this new position. I was successful in my final interview. The new position interview was in person, via video conference and via audio conference. So communication was so critical for me to be able to be as succinct as possible and to use those sound bites which I prepared, prepared prepared. And also I have a first contract consulting about to be signed this week. So I can't thank you enough for providing the tools and encouraging and supporting along the way and making me feel that I had just as much reason to be here as everyone else.

My income has doubled!

I have learned so much from Susan Harrow's courses and individual coaching. It was very helpful to get specific with her about the offers on my website and how to create packages that will sell. All of it was juicy. I love how she understands how to distill the entrepreneurial mind and put it into practical words and actions. I was left with actionable steps to implement with clarity. Other coaches might have great information, but it’s too complex to implement. They leave you wanting and needing more, and keep you hooked on buying more to get results. With Susan it’s so clear what she is offering and how she can help. She teaches in a way that I can hear it. She empowers people. She makes it easy to do, and I am seeing the evidence of our work in my business everyday. My income has doubled!

Publicity, Branding + Media Training Workshop Tulum Gaby Fisch, Leadership Facilitator, Consultant, Certified Coach

Hi I'm Gaby Fisch. I'm a leadership coach, facilitator and consultant and I help organizations cultivate magnetic organizations and leaders build magnetic leadership. There's probably a couple of things, the first is just that great mantra: plan, prepare, and practice so you can be spontaneous in the moment. That's a kind of a belief that I have but I just loved how you put it together and it's just really great to keep in mind all the time. You gave some amazing examples of how that really is true. Another thing that really connected with me is how you said that how you come across, even in a photograph, as long as it's authentic it will attract the people who are attracted to you and your energy and I have noticed that before. I really think about who I am and how I'm being little less than what I do and people are attracted to a little bit of who I am and then I can figure out how to give them value. Susan, you're so poised and you know you shared that a value is grace and elegance, and that comes across in spades. You just created a wonderful, lovely, calm but powerful presentation, you have so much knowledge, experience, expertise, and intuition to share and that very much permeated the environment you created.

~ Tom Treanor, Director of Content Marketing & Social Media for Wrike

This is an investment that I am glad I made and stuck with.

Susan, after listening to your presentation on sound bites I signed up right away for the two courses "Your Signature Sound Bites" and the "Sell Yourself Without Selling Your Soul" e-course. However, I started to feel like maybe I jumped in too soon as I was just starting my business and probably didn’t need to focus on this right away. As a result, I was ready to withdraw from the program and revisit it in a few months...

Boy that would have been a HUGE mistake... that was a very close call.

I actually decided to stick with it anyway and can't believe all of the valuable information I am receiving throughout the two courses that I NEED and would have missed out on had I not continued. What I like most is the opportunity to work with a partner, that I can go at my own pace; and that the resources are available to me always.

Thanks Susan for all of the great information from sound bites to building my own press kit, and so much more. This is an investment that I am glad I made and stuck with. I am looking forward to using all my new tools over the next several weeks, months and years to come.

I'm happy to inform you that I had my own radio show on Voiceamerica.com for 13 weeks after completing your wonderful sound bite course. This was the First radio show on VoiceAmerica's 7th wave channel, by an Indian from India.

My producer Randall Libero gave me this feedback : "You had an fantastic first month. One of the highest premiere shows ever on 7th Wave. I am not surprised though, because you are an amazing talk show host!"

Although I had been featured on CNN-IBN earlier, your tips on interacting with producers helped me a lot in my interview for this show. I learnt a lot from your course that helped me not just with the show, but also in the way I present my thoughts about Autism Healing these days.

My audience is able to "get it" when I do this. Thank you so much! 🙂

Publicity, Branding + Media Training Workshop Tulum Elena Tchumanov, Project Manager

My name is Elena Tchumanov and I'm here at a retreat in Tulum in April 2024. I participated in Susan's PR workshop. First of all, just observing how you did it professionally, is actually the teaching point to how you have to keep an audience attentive even without talking loud, looking at each person in the audience. I just was fascinated by that. Regarding the content, and what you taught us in the workshop, what stood out for me was those questions that you gave us to think about. They were a little different, everybody choosing maybe one would be more generic. Everybody in life has had some aha moment that turns to one side or another side or the way you think or the way you change your life or in the work, in the family, in life, in relationships so that was probably the interesting part for me. I remember that I had to think. I loved the little stories incorporated in the workshop, you're not only getting theory but the theory was backed up with some real stories that can show how it can be done, and how we can change the past. We still have that freedom to change and it's up to us if they are adventurous and open and willing to learn because there are so many things you can share. And I believe that you shared just a small part of what you know. You are very wise and your thoughts were presented in a nice flow and very clear and understandable. That's at least what I got from the workshop and how I felt.

In two media training sessions you got it, packaged it and put it into a form that I could use not only for media interviews, but in my podcasts, webinars, on my website, and to define my new brand.

I've worked with a number of high-level coaches for years and none of them could capture the essence of what I did. In two media training sessions you got it, packaged it and put it into a form that I could use not only for media interviews, but in my podcasts, webinars, on my website, and to define my new brand.

60 minutes later when I put down the phone I had a clear game plan, a set of actionable suggestions, and some brilliant monetization ideas I hadn't even considered.

Spending an hour with Susan Harrow is a bit like walking into the bright sunlight after an hour in an unlit tunnel. I came to Susan with so many ideas and goals I couldn't even define what I needed from her. When she asked me what my goal was for our hour together, I panicked. Yet 60 minutes later when I put down the phone I had a clear game plan, a set of actionable suggestions, and some brilliant monetization ideas I hadn't even considered. I know what my next steps are, and I know they will play to my strengths. And boost my income significantly. On a scale of 1 to 10 I'll give Susan an 11.

I got on TV!!

I got on TV!! And I used your advice to speak in "sound bites" that I got from your seminar on the Transformational Author Series by Christine Kloser! Thanks for helping me feel prepared and confident to step up and go on TV at a moment's notice!

Everything I do in my business is better because of what I've learned from you. You are like my media mother!

I love your programs! They're so full of juicy nuggets that I come back again and again. I always learn something new or a little bit different. Everything I do in my business is better because of what I've learned from you.

My writing is much more succinct and I actually find that as I edit my own copy I am putting into play your principles of sound bites all the time. I even hear people differently now also, which is kind of funny. Sometimes when people get lost in their story, I want to tell them to "make it a sound bite already!"

I love your calming and grounding spirit. Not only is your voice incredibly warm and kind, but I feel from you an energy that you genuinely believe that success can be ours, and that we're fully capable of greatness. You are like my media mother!

Thank you so much for being a fantastic mentor and for a fantastic session together that gave me probably the best feedback and instruction I've had yet. 🙂

I am awed by Susan's passion for helping people because it takes a lot to create your public image.

Publicity, Branding + Media Training Workshop Tulum Irina Berezhnaya, Food Coach and Wellness Expert

Hi, my name is Irina Berezhnaya and I'm a food coach. I specialize in healthy habits. Well, I think the most important thing that keeps coming back to me is to take action. No matter how many books we read, no matter how many Retreats or workshops we attend, it all comes down to that. Don't wait! Don't wait for Monday, don't wait for next month, don't wait for next year or when you will have more finances. Or when you meet the right people, I mean you're meeting the right people the entire time, I mean any moment people are coming into your life. So what you need to do is just stop procrastinating and take action. It was a great pleasure to meet Susan. I am awed by her passion for helping people because it takes a lot to create your public image and if you're going to do it you have to do it right so I'm really excited to buy Susan's book and learn more in detail about what steps I have to take to promote myself to put my name out there so thank you so much!

You are a marketing genius!

I was blessed by God to have taken your course at this time. It was divine timing. You are a marketing genius! Steve Harrison told us about trend stories but I always related it to unclaimed property, never to the individual topics within unclaimed property that really need to be covered. You have rocked my world! This will cause the ripple effect to thousands, if not millions, of others. I will report back from the Publicity Summit!! My goal is The Today Show. Blessings!

She becomes your partner, your cheering section, your coach, your mentor. As she gives unstintingly of her energy and expertise, you gain the tools you need to succeed.

Susan Harrow changed my life. I went from “geek speak” to “media speak.” After 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.

When I first contacted Susan Harrow, I fully expected to find myself among the 60% of applicants whom she rejects. But I got lucky. At the time, I had no idea how lucky. Susan selects her clients carefully because she commits to them totally. She becomes your partner, your cheering section, your coach, your mentor. As she gives unstintingly of her energy and expertise, you gain the tools you need to succeed. And each success along the road—no matter how small—delights her. Her integrity, her vision, her devotion to her clients is unequalled. Whether you purchase one of her publicity books, participate in her media training seminars, or are fortunate enough to become one of her media coaching clients, count yourself lucky to learn from this rare and wonderful gem.

You have given me a lot of things to think about, homework, a lots and lots of introspection work and I am very excited to put some of that in use.

Publicity, Branding + Media Training Workshop Tulum Tina Marie Knittel, Owner of Love Guides Me

Hi, I'm Tina Marie, owner of Love Guides Me, a healing center in Norwalk, Ohio. Honestly, it's just really tuning into your frequency and being able to feel the jewel that you are because your energy carries such a beautiful signature that I just want to take and extract all of the amazingness from it that you are and so I would say the biggest takeaway is just watching you in your art, watching you in your craft, in your passion and your joy, expressing yourself in the love that you are. Susan, you have given me a lot of things to think about, homework, a lots and lots of introspection work and I am very excited to put some of that in use. One of the questions that you asked me to do was to go through and really think about what is my pattern of help that I've been able to help others, guide them with and going through each of my testimonials and extracting certain information and pieces out of it and I think that that was really beautiful. But my favorite activity of course that you did is just the honoring of others and looking into each other's eyes and having those heart-to-heart moments and the deep beautiful questions that you ask.

Susan is masterful at knowing exactly what each individual needs to hear to hone their sound bites.

Susan is masterful at knowing exactly what each individual needs to hear to hone their sound bites. I cannot thank you enough for your generosity. You are a gifted group leader. You embody generosity of spirit in giving your participants so much effective general information and so much personal fine tuning of their sound bites. You are like a laser that hones in on what each person needs to improve as well as highlighting each person's natural strengths.

~ Selma Lewis, Ph.D.

The workshop has given me lots to think of and broadened my awareness in the world of public relations.

Thank you so much for spending the day with us. You were also a role model of professionalism, presentation, being prepared, connecting with everyone, all of that was a joy for me to be around. One of the coaches that I speak with often really enjoyed the whole day and got so much out of the exercise of sharing our sound bites... she found that in the process of creating the sound bite, she was clarifying her niche and passion. Then the step of sharing it was a big deal too. I personally always find doing exercises in a room with listening ears and a guiding professional can in fact change you. The workshop has given me lots to think of and broadened my awareness in the world of public relations.

~ Maria Cristini, CPCC Executive Coach - President Bay Area Chapter of the ICF

Your poised, quiet wisdom that wants to see the world get to their next level, especially women.

Jane Storm McCarthy, Hope activator, Coach, Speaker, Workshop facilitator. The one that really stood out to me was the heart exercise, I loved doing that. I loved hearing what people had to say and you know being intentional for a minute. There were two exercises that you did, the one where we had to look into each other's eyes - I've done that before but at a table where we didn't look into each other's eyes. Having that personal space and having to be intentional is a beautiful way to do it and so your wisdom came out in a way, by doing your activities, that was able to have people understand what you were saying and learn by doing which is always such a valuable lesson. Your poised, quiet wisdom that wants to see the world get to their next level, especially women.

Harrow's book eminently practical; the fact that she's put her soul into it makes it priceless.

Working in a highly competitive film industry where communication is everything--where ideas are "pitched" and opinions bought and sold—I've found Ms. Harrow's executive communication training helped me get my message across with clarity and integrity and was an extraordinary aid. The deftly covered range of public relations situations and examples makes Harrow's book eminently practical; the fact that she's put her soul into it makes it priceless.

I have had several radio interviews and I want you to know that these two chapters (8 &11) have directly contributed to my success with those interviews.

I have read Sell Yourself Without Selling Your Soul® from cover to cover and am now doing a second reading. Chapters eight and eleven have been an invaluable asset to me. I have had several radio interviews and I want you to know that these two chapters have directly contributed to my success with those interviews.

I know, from reading your materials, the information you provide appeals to people like myself, people who desire useful and relevant information for all areas of their life whether it be work, play, politics, social, or spiritual, people who want useful information on how to be more successful.

The information you provide is all about faith and empowerment. You see, I took off from working on my $50 thousand dollar a year job as a public high school teacher last year to do what I have always wanted to do, write. I stepped out on faith, marched into my director's office and requested a leave of absence for the 2004-2005 school year. Well, this school year has ended and I have two books for sale on Amazon.com, but that took a lot of faith in my potential and the gift that God has given me. I found this same theme of faith buried in the pages of Sell Yourself Without Selling Your Soul®, and I found myself empowered. Your book empowers the reader with the tools (knowledge) that are needed to bring about success. I am so grateful for discovering you and your wonderful resources to help me in accomplishing my goals, and I would love to be instrumental in introducing others to you and your powerful products.

~ Sherrie Rita Marshall, keynote speaker, author, Invisible Chains: Chained To A Lie

Your book was very helpful to me in getting that message out!

I wanted to write to let you know how much I enjoyed your book, Sell Yourself Without Selling Your Soul®. Your tips were very helpful in placing an article with the Wall Street Journal.

I have the triple distinction of:

being in the World Trade Center on the morning of 9-11 when the planes struck the towers,
living in the immediate impact zone of the World Trade Center and being evacuated while my neighborhood was closed by civil authority for months after the attacks and
owning a small business in the area.

Many small businesses in Lower Manhattan ceased operations as a consequence of 9-11. I was one of the lucky ones. I had a comprehensive and cost-effective contingency plan in place, which saved my business. I credit this foresight to my previous work experience. I lived and worked in Zurich, Switzerland where I was a senior executive of the Swiss Reinsurance Company and an expert on business risk management. I provided significant pro bono assistance to Lower Manhattan small businesses in the months after 9-11. Then to scale our outreach and provide more proactive assistance, my IT expert and I wrote Contingency Planning and Disaster Recovery: A Small Business Guide (John Wiley & Sons, Inc.). It is the only book in print dealing with the unique needs of small businesses in this respect. I assigned my share of the author's royalties to endow an academic program in my dad's name, such that two groups would benefit from the book: needy students and under-resourced small business owners.

I am committed to helping small businesses across the country with the benefit of our hard-earned experience. Your book was very helpful to me in getting that message out! Thank you again.
