210Project Manager &amp; Creative Director</h5>
211<h1><strong>“I’ll guide you on the path to self-publish your book or brand and market your new speaking or consulting business”</strong></h1>
212<p>This is what I love to do! I show up to work every day knowing I’m going to help an author self
212-publish a book. Or that I’m helping a new professional speaker, corporate consultant, or business coach begin an exciting career.</p>
213<h2><strong>I know this is my calling. This was reinforced by a walk down memory lane. </strong></h2>
214<p>Not long ago, I opened a dusty suitcase stored at my parent’s house, which contained long-forgotten school projects. Imagine my surprise and delight as I unearthed several grade-school reports complete with illustrations and diagrams – my early attempt to create professional books! My discovery confirmed what I already knew, “I was born to do this!”</p>
215<p>Since I have self-published my own book, I know the many choices – and potential pitfalls –that authors face. Plus, as a small business owner, I thoroughly understand the importance and challenge of creating an on-target brand, a hardworking website, and a compelling marketing toolkit that promotes your business and makes the sale.</p>
216<h2><strong>I take pride in guiding my clients. And I promise to help you make the best choices along the way.</strong></h2>
217<p>In short, whether you are an author and self-publisher or a professional speaker, corporate consultant, or business coach, my team and I will guide you through each step to self-publish your book or brand and market your new business.</p>

224<h2><strong>Professional background</strong></h2>
225<p>In 1990, Karen Saunders founded her Colorado-based graphic design firm, MacGraphics Services. Now, as the leader of a dynamic team of professionals, her company – Karen Saunders &amp; Associates, at MacGraphics – provides one-stop shopping for authors, self
225-publishers, professional speakers, corporate consultants, business coaches, and other small business owners.</p>
226<p>Karen and her team have contributed to the success of over 50 award-winning books including one project that earned the <em>Writer’s Digest</em> “Grand Prize” for the best self-published book in America. In workshops and webinars, Karen shares her expertise on branding, self-publishing, design, and marketing with students and businesspeople alike.</p>
