Ms. Allen really gave my LinkedIn profile the Boost it needed to get noticed. I was so impressed that I have emailed and texted several of my ex co-workers who were also laid off that could use her expertise in boosting their job hunt.
Tamara has been my career coach as I pursue a career transition; and, within four months of working with Tamara, I am starting my new career. I have been so impressed with her abilities that I plan to continue to turn to Tamara as I seek to advance in my new environment. She is professional, knowledgeable, flexible and motivating. She saved me a lot of time by advising me how to search for opportunities and provided me with resume writing support. Tamara patiently sat with me and coached me on interview skills, and was there every time I had a doubt to remind me that I am qualified and capable. I have no doubt that, without her, I would have been still looking.
I've had the pleasure of collaborating with Tamara as a guest speaker for the PREPared Workshop at Community Action Council. Tamara is an excellent speaker who is relatable to the audience and provides a wealth of knowledge on topics such as seeking employment, interview skills, self esteem and many more topics. I would recommend Tamara to work with your organization.
Publishing
I had no idea where to start when it came to designing my book cover, but Publishing by Speaking Out! Media took my vision and brought it to life. The design process was smooth, collaborative, and exceeded my expectations. Everyone who sees the cover asks who created it. I appreciated how intentional and thoughtful the team was in making sure the visuals aligned with the message of my book.
I reached out for help organizing my first book signing, and the support I received was top-tier. From helping me draft my press release to making sure my promotional materials looked polished and professional, the team walked with me every step of the way. I felt seen, celebrated, and prepared. I will definitely work with them again for my next project.
Even though I had already written my manuscript, I was stuck. Publishing by Speaking Out! Media gave me the clarity I needed. The consultation helped me understand what was missing, and the publishing proposal outlined a step-by-step plan I could trust. The team made the entire process feel manageable and respected my voice throughout. I finally feel like an author now.
Publicity
I was nervous about putting myself out there as a new author, but the publicity support I received gave me the confidence and structure I needed. From helping me craft a media pitch to walking me through how to engage with press opportunities, the team helped me get my name out there the right way. It felt like I finally had someone in my corner who understood both the business and the heart behind my work.
Platform Strategy
Before I connected with Publishing by Speaking Out! Media, I had no clue how to show up as an author online. The platform strategy session gave me a clear roadmap for building my presence without losing myself in the process. We outlined my brand voice, social media content themes, and engagement tips that actually work for my lifestyle. It made marketing feel manageable.
Production Studio
Recording my audiobook felt intimidating at first, but the production studio experience was nothing short of empowering. The space was comfortable, the process was professional, and I actually enjoyed hearing my story come to life. The team walked me through everything, step by step. Now I have a quality audio version of my book I can be proud of.— Kia, Poet & Storyteller
