Client Testimonials
"Janet is delightful to work with, has outstanding contacts, and is tireless in landing media opportunities. Our book would not have been nearly as successful without her."
- Ron Schouten, Director, Law & Psychiatry Services, Massachusetts General Hospital, Associate Professor of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School
"Tenacious. Determined. Relentless. Indefatigable. Janet Appel goes above and beyond in her role as publicist. And the relationship lasts long after Janet is actively pitching your book. Even today she called me having been contacted by a radio station asking for an interview. I recommend Janet Appel without reservation. Hire her! Hire her now!”
- Joseph Shrand, MD, Lecturer in Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School
“Janet’s complete understanding of our needs and her ability to translate that into media coverage was impressive, as was her willingness to 'always go the extra mile' to obtain another interview. Janet’s ability to effectively and graciously handle our PR was admired by all of us who worked with her, and was tremendously appreciated. Her sense of humor and ability to laugh when the going got tough made her a pleasure to work with.”
- Linda S. Paulk, Former President, Snelling Personnel Services
“Janet was a great resource for us as we launched the vested concept and our first two books on Vested. She was able to make press and PR connections that opened to the doors at Forbes and Chief Executive Magazine for us! My novel would not have gotten the recognition it has received without Janet's help and advice.”
- SM Harris, Author, The Northeast Quarter
“Janet Appel is one of the most skilled publicists out there. Within weeks of publishing of my first book, I was featured in The New York Times and the Washington Post, and appeared on NBC, ABC and FOX, leading to a significantly enhanced brand presence that continues to grow. Recently, she got me featured in TIME—twice!!—as well as landing me speaking gigs at Google and Microsoft. My advice is to hire Janet.”
