About Lisa

Who Is Lisa Orrell?

Lisa Orrell started her first advertising agency when she was just 25 years old, and continued to run her award-winning high-tech firm for 20 years in Silicon Valley. During this time, Lisa received over 75 national and international awards for branding, marketing and creative excellence.

But, after 2 decades of running her ad agency, Lisa decided to make a career shift. So now in the next phase of her professional life, Lisa is highly respected as The Promote U Guru. She is an in-demand Branding Expert, Marketing Consultant & Certified Business Coach who works with entrepreneurs, industry experts, small business owners, coaches, consultants, entertainers, speakers, and authors. And, as a professional speaker herself, her popular seminars, workshops and webinars consistently sell out, on topics such as: Branding, Marketing, PR, Publicity, Book Writing & Publishing, and Social Media.

Her clients benefit from her unique blend of being a certified Business Coach (through an ICF-accredited academy), 20-year business owner, and Marketing & Branding expert. She personally understands what it takes to build a Brand Platform, market a person or business effectively, and run a company effectively. And some clients hire Lisa for just one of her services, or a blend of 2 or 3 (Branding Expert, Marketing Consultant, Business Coach)…some clients even hire her to be their personal Publicist.

Lisa is also the author of 2 books on Amazon, “Millennials Into Leadership” (written for Gen Y about how to be young, effective leaders, pub. 2009) and “Millennials Incorporated” (how to recruit, manage and retain Gen Y, pub. 2007). And she is regularly hired by colleges and corporations (such as Pepsi, Johnson & Johnson, Paul Mitchell, USC, and Blue Cross/BlueShield) to conduct seminars for their Managers and Executives. Companies and colleges also hire Lisa to conduct Leadership presentations, with emphasis on Personal Branding, for their Millennial and Gen X employees (or students).

In October of 2010, Lisa will be publishing the first book in her NEW “The Promote U Guru Guide to…” series. Each book in the series will focus on different areas of Branding, Marketing, PR, Publicity, Sales, Book Writing & Publishing, Book Marketing, and Social Media.

Based on her vast business and marketing experience, Lisa has been interviewed by, or written articles for, countless media, including: ABC, MSNBC, NPR, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, TIME, FoxBusiness.com, U.S. News & World Report, WomenEntrepreneur.com, CareerBuilder.com, Monster.com, The Silicon Valley Business Journal, China’s HerWorld magazine, and BNET.com.
