Success Stories

"I have used Susan Gilbert and her company, Online Promotion Success, for two book launches in a year. Susan helped me to strategize all aspects of my campaigns, key word searches and SEO. My beautiful websites are exactly what I dreamed of and all her suggestions about cross promoting my two genres were genius. I highly recommend Susan and her team. No author should ever launch a book promotion without working with Online Promotion Success."

    -- Author Merrie P. Wycoff www.merriepwycoff.com

"Susan Gilbert's knowledge of social media and online marketing has been indispensable to me. As a full-time author and celebrity interviewer, I needed someone to take charge of my online venues and she did it fast!--exponentially increasing my business and overall exposure. Not least important, she's the most congenial easy-to-work with person I've known. I can't recommend her enough."
-- Bestselling Author Glenn Plaskin www.glennplaskin.com

"I originally hired Susan Gilbert to help coach me on using social media to attract more authors to my editorial service. However, during our first session, it became apparent that I needed to brand my company first before venturing out into the social media sphere. Susan proved invaluable in helping me come up with a brand that would not only help me grow my business beyond myself, but would contain memorable keywords that would help potential clients find me. After working with her, I now not only feel confident in my use of social media, but my business has grown exponentially. I would recommend Susan Gilbert to anyone looking to have a strong presence on the Internet. "
-- Diane O’Connell, Founder and Editorial Director of Write to Sell Your Book

"Having Susan Gilbert spearhead my on-line marketing efforts has been an eye opener for me and my company. Not only have I learned the value and importance of a well-thought-out on-line strategy, but my on-line presence has increased in droves. Susan’s ability to gain followers and spread the word has been invaluable in the promotion of my new book and the philosophy behind it. I recommend Susan, and her team, to anyone who is passionate about what they do and wants to increase the visibility of their message. Thank you, Susan, for your expertise, care, and persistence."
-- Garret Kramer, Founder of Inner Sports and Author of Stillpower: Excellence with East in Sports and Life

"As a first time author I was really so confused and chaotic in my approach to figuring out, now that I have this book coming out, what do I do to reach out to the people who want to buy it.... Watch the rest of Michele's testimonial --Michele Rosenthal, Author, Before the World Intruded


"I am so lucky to have found Susan Gilbert! I knew my website needed SEO, but I was lost. I didn't want to go with a company that gave me vague promises about results and frankly I hadn't a clue about how to evaluate a good choice for me. So I just didn't do anything, which truly weighed on my mind.
I shared my dilemma with a business associate and they referred me to Susan. She "fit" for so many reasons. The most important to me was that she was an entrepreneur, and in the past ran her own consumer-focused business. I could see she understood all that I do to keep my business humming. But I could not have predicted how well she knows her SEO and our outstanding results.
After only six weeks of working together, your Online Promotion Success team has been able to achieve first page results for my keywords in Google. What that means for me is more business. I've signed two new clients this week who found my business online and contacted me. Six weeks ago I wouldn't have shown up in the search engine results and that business would have gone to someone else. I know I am the better vendor; and, am so happy for people to find my business online, call me and have the opportunity to show them that. Thank you, Susan."
