I am thrilled with my experience of collaborating with Lauren to publicize my first children’s book. Lauren is a talented and experienced professional who is committed to connecting your book to a wide and diverse range of publicity venues through her strategic insight and creative pitches. Our campaign generated coverage links including magazine features, podcast and blog interviews, book reviews, bookstore author visits, and inclusion on a recommended children’s book list. Her positive support and attention to detail are exemplary. There isn’t a more genuine endorsement I can give Lauren than inviting her to collaborate with me on a second publicity campaign for the upcoming launch of my second children’s book, which I did.

It’s been really encouraging working with Lauren these last few weeks. Apart from her professionalism, organization and helpful ideas, she has slipped seamlessly onto my team collaborating closely with me as if we’d been working together for years. She really delved into my book and brainstormed on the different angles we could take to promote it which resulted in a variety of audiences. It felt like Lauren was truly vested in my success and that I would feel good about all the opportunities we pursued. She was flexible in her approach and generous with her time. I won’t hesitate to work with Lauren again on my next book.

We reached out to Lauren Hathaway to publicize our debut YA fantasy book. She customized a plan for publicity and helped execute it every step of the way. She opened doors and avenues that otherwise would have been closed to us as new authors. She not only helped us in the present but also set us up for success in the future. She provided us a gateway to publicity and elevated our brand beyond anything we could have hoped for. Her level of professionalism, dedication, and communication were second-to-none. By the time our PR campaign wrapped, we had 14 coverage links, including multiple interviews, articles, and podcast appearances. We had a fantastic experience working with Lauren and hope to do so again in the future.

Aside from all of Lauren's successes on my campaign, we had great fun working together."

“Working with Lauren Hathaway was a wonderful experience from start to finish. She was understanding and committed to promoting India’s book on many different platforms in ways that India felt the most comfortable. Lauren took into consideration a creative approach to sharing articles India wrote to accompany her book in order to reach a wider audience. These articles also helped create content for social media and her website. Lauren went above and beyond to reach out to bookstores and assist with additional research. I am so grateful to Lauren for all of her hard work, patience, and expertise. "

"I loved working with Lauren. Not only was she my biggest cheerleader, but she was also professional, consistent, and productive. My situation is unique as I live in Indonesia, and she still made it possible for me to connect and collaborate with magazines, influencers, popular blogs, podcasts, and professionals. I still collaborate with most of them to this day. I am forever grateful! "

“While I have published a number of books, this is my first time using with a P.R. person. I wasn't sure what to expect, so it was a wonderful surprise working with Lauren Hathaway. She was fantastic; not just in the huge number of contacts she made about my book, and the coverage she got me -- which included articles, tv, and podcasts. But, she was especially fantastic and patient in holding my hand throughout our work together. Her responsiveness to my multiple questions was immediate and thorough.”

"Lauren is a gem. She has been instrumental in helping me expand my platform in a variety of high-quality publications. She is proactive about finding opportunities for publicity and is always responsive and helpful. I have experimented with other publicity firms in the past and was disappointed. But Lauren follows through, delivers great opportunities, and does a wonderful job of advocating for me. I'm so grateful for her support!"

“Lauren Hathaway is an effective and precise publicist. She worked closely with me through the launch of my memoir and obtained terrific placements online, on television, and radio. She stayed in regular contact with me during the campaign. I can't recommend her enough.”

![Author Vanessa Garcia]()
“I've worked with a lot of publicists, and it's hard to find one that just "gets you" and your work and wants to develop you around thought leadership, which is really the way to go. Lauren was so easy to work with, she just got it, and I didn't have to worry, things were getting done and I could not only feel it, but I saw the results. She has the initiative and drive that every writer hopes for to bring their book into the world. You write it, but then someone has to work as the matchmaker to introduce it to the world. I'm grateful to had Lauren on my side to get some sparks flying.”

“Lauren did an outstanding job for me! She came to the meetings with her own ideas and was clearly motivated to do the best job she could for me. I felt like she went above and beyond what I asked of her. I was impressed with her timeliness and would love to work with her again in the future. Highly recommended!”
