“Wow sums up my experience with Jen! I recently had an author coaching call and was blown away with all I learned. Talk about informative and helpful. I scribbled pages of notes on new-to-me things I might want to try in regards to social media and promo. I’ve already used a couple of her suggestions and very happy with the results. Jen wants authors to succeed and will help you in any way she can.”
— Melissa McClone, author of The Honeymoon Prize and Tease Me, Cowboy
“I had the opportunity to work with Jen at my regional SCBWI conference, and wow! This gal has so much information to share, my note-taking could barely keep up! In out one-on-one consultation appointment, she answered questions, shared ideas for how I could optimize both my time and my online presence, AND introduced me to several new-to-me tools for managing social media. Her 1-hour presentation, which I attended later in the day, was filled with 3 hours’ worth of tips, tricks, tools, and resources for every aspect of social media, marketing, and book promotion.
It’s easy to get overwhelmed by social media and marketing possibilities—but Jen’s encouraging and generous approach helps writers identify the tools that best fit their needs and map out a strategy to get them where they want to go. I can’t wait to work with her again!”
— Cheryl Reifsnyder, published in American Girl and Highlights for Children magazines
“I loved working with Jen on my book cover reveal. She is very positive and trustworthy and just an all-around nice person! She seems to genuinely care about me and my book as if she has a personal interest in its success. She took care of everything in an organized, professional way so that my reveal reached many bloggers and readers in a way I’m sure I couldn’t have done on my own. I hope we remain friends and will be able to work more together in the future!”
— Courtney King Walker, author of On the Fringe and Molly Pepper and the Night Train
“When I took the leap into self-publishing I knew it was going to be hard. It wasn’t just about writing and editing a book, designing a cover, and hitting publish. It’s those things and more … a lot more. I knew I would also have to promote myself, and so I forged ahead-I have a marketing and PR background so it will be fine, right? It was fine-but not great. After countless hours spent focusing on PR instead of writing, I received a referral for Jen Halligan PR and emailed her. We connected instantly and the rest as they say is history. She’s catapulted awareness of my book way beyond my wildest expectations, but more than that she always listens to me and brainstorms new ideas that fit not only me but also my books/audience. Her dedication to her clients, her belief in them, and her knowledge of the book/publishing community are what set her apart in this industry.”
— Cassie Shine, author of Harp’s Song and Harp’s Voice
“How many different ways can I compliment Jennifer Halligan? I was more than ecstatic with her work on my blog tour! She was friendly, communicative, efficient and most importantly, she wasn’t afraid to give me helpful suggestions that sent me in the right direction. She has extensive knowledge of the literary world that she utilized for me- and even took extra time to help me prep for the tour. Jennifer goes above and beyond to continuously improve any author’s presence online. I can’t thank her enough. I am looking forward to working with her again soon!”
— C. Elizabeth Vescio, author of Elegantly Wasted
“I cannot praise Jen enough for the incredible blog tour that she put together for Left Drowning. Not only did every step run flawlessly, but she stayed on top of each day’s blog and helped me to promote the tour as we went on. Would I work with Jen again? In a heartbeat. She created a very successful tour that allowed me to have fun (actual, real fun!) with no stress on my end. How could I ask for more?”
— Jessica Park, author of Left Drowning
“Jennifer is the ultimate professional. Her background as a blogger makes her the perfect liaison between authors and the blogging community. Jennifer is organized, efficient, and always quick to respond to questions or concerns. Her ability to think outside the box and come up with interesting and new suggestions for publicity has been exactly what I wanted from a publicist. She goes above and beyond to make sure her clients are taken care of. Working with Jennifer on my blog tour and release event has been a pleasure. I wouldn’t trust my publicly needs to anyone else.”
— Heather Reid, author of Pretty Dark Nothing
“Working with Jen has been a pleasure and a godsend! She is meticulous, organized and amazingly dedicated. I’ve done two blog tours with her, and would unhesitatingly do another. She takes all the hard work out of promoting my books so I can have the fun! Jen has also handled my expansion plans for social media, created my Facebook author page, and more. It’s such a relief to be able to go back to writing, and let her handle everything. Above all, Jen is nice! I adore her, and am so grateful for her help.”
— Selene Castrovilla, author of Saved by the Music and The Girl Next Door
“Jen has made all the difference for our success as self-published authors. In fact, it has nothing to do with being self-published; the skills Jen brings to the table, and more importantly, the skills Jen has taught us, are essential for every author. Marketing philosophy, technical web development, multi-channel social media utilization – whether you are self- or traditionally published, these are crucial to your success, and Jen excels in all areas. With Jen we are reaching (and continuing to build) an audience that is many times larger than what we could have achieved on our own. We love working with Jen, and highly recommend her for any author working to grow his or her audience.”
— Harris & Gray, authors of Vampire Vic and Java Man
“Working with Jen has been a rewarding experience as both author and performer. A true professional, Jen’s strong business savy and beyond-excellent communication skills allows me to pursue more creative freedom as an author without the stressful hassle of working the ‘publicity’ angle that Jen does so expertly. Anyone working with Jen can consider themselves extremely fortunate.”
