By Susan Harrow

"This is a must read for anyone who has ever had a doubt that marketing and publicity can provide a path to fame and fortune while maintaining peace of mind."

~ Susan RoAne, author of How to Work a Room

For the past 23 years, in seminars, and in individual consulting, Susan Harrow has helped executives, entrepreneurs, and best-selling authors gain and keep media attention.

In SELL YOURSELF WITHOUT SELLING YOUR Soul®: A Woman's Guide to Promoting Herself, Her Business, Her Product, or Her Cause with Integrity and Spirit (HarperResource; ISBN 0-06-019880-X; $24.95), Harrow offers her readers strategies to align their message with who they are and what they're promoting. Whether you're a spokesperson for your company, an entrepreneur, or a gal with a hobby to turn into a business, Harrow offers dozens of powerful tools for launching and sustaining a successful campaign:

The formula professional publicists use to create press kits (press releases, biographies, pitch letters, and tip sheets).
Strategies to master any type of media interview, verbally and psychologically.
Insider secrets to help you become an overnight expert.
The dos and don'ts of forming strong lasting bonds with the media.
How to handle the spotlight.
Techniques to create a clear, compelling message using print, radio, TV and the Internet.
Dozens of ways to gain worldwide fame and fortune on your own terms.
     
Written in a conversational, woman-to-woman style without any sports talk or war tactics, this innovative book blends illuminating personal anecdotes and wisdom of famous spiritual, historical, and political leaders with Harrow's own unique system. Complete with thought-provoking exercises, hot tips, warnings, and quotes from everyone from Gandhi to Susan Sarandon, SELL YOURSELF WITHOUT SELLING YOUR Soul® completely transforms the notion of self-promotion.
