Judith Curr of HarperCollins – Open Book

You probably know we wrote a book “Like, Love, Follow”. And we constantly hear from other Entreprenistas who also want to become published authors. But where do you start, and who do you even pitch a book idea to? How does it get marketed? So many questions, so we figured: why don’t we sit down with someone who knows the answers? Enter Australian born Intrapranista Judith Curr, President and Publisher of HarperOne, Amistad, and Rayo/HarperCollins Español at HarperCollins Publishers. She not only offers an inside scoop into the work she does, but a lot of wisdom on growing a  successful career. Judith joins Socialfly co-founders Stephanie Cartin and Courtney Spritzer for a conversation about her career, and describes her journey to success, including: the six things publishers look for in a book; the prevalence of Imposter Syndrome; why your career should not be linear and why you shouldn’t rush to get to the top; the power of “The Secret” and how it played a role in Judith’s career, plus how you can manifest amazing things by setting an intention; the one thing that Judith’s mentor told her that has made a huge impact; and, Judith offers a peek behind the curtain, working with big names like 50 Cent and Tiger Woods. Plus, a surprise!
