Karen’s recent Big Leap Author Summit event was absolutely amazing!

The speakers were truly top-notch, offering insightful information and engaging presentations on a wide range of topics that are highly relevant to speakers and authors, both seasoned and emerging. But what truly impressed me were the practical tools each one provided. These tools are already proving to be incredibly enlightening and will be instrumental in how I think about my messaging, PR planning and media engagement.

What other authors are saying:

Interested in getting a book done and published? Last week I attended a workshop by Karen Strauss, founder of Hybrid Publishing, on getting a book written, published, and promoted. It is one of the best programs I've ever attended. No fluff. Great guest speakers! She really knows her stuff. And she was very generous with her time. I can't recommend her expertise enough.

What an amazing experience. I came into the event feeling unclear about what it takes to write a book. By the end of the retreat, Karen had me believing that not only can I do it, but that it won’t be that hard to do! It was very apparent that Karen and her team have a well-honed process that helps even a novice become an author

In all my years in business, I’ve engaged many coaches to help me achieve my goals, but none of them compare to working with Karen Strauss. I hired Karen to coach me around my efforts to promote my new books and to relaunch my own coaching business and was blown away by her insight and wisdom. 

She helped me drill down to identify my best streams of revenue and how to maximize my time and energy so I could get my ‘biggest bang for the buck.’ Karen is a gifted coach and just a delightful person to work with. I can’t wait to work with her to publish my next book!
