You gave me a way to connect with and work with several authors with works-in-progress that really deserved to see the light of day. I'm so grateful to be part of making that happen, thanks to the community you have nurtured!

You gave me (& COUNTLESS other authors) hope when everything was falling apart. You created a platform of connection that allowed me to meet and work with AMAZING professionals instead of throwing in the towel. THANKS TO YOU AND RISING AUTHORS I have worked with Sheila Trask (developmental and line editing) Marie Kuipers (copy editing) Ami Hendrickson ✅ (copywriting and book assets) Rose Friel (proposal work and publishing guidance). Hats off to you, Hussein Al-Baiaty. You are a rockstar leader with the biggest heart. Thank you <3

It's always cool when I get to do business with the homies. Hussein is someone who I'd hang out with all the time if we lived in the same city. I gave him a tall order - build me a sick book launch website for my book, Survival First, in a week. Hussein was traveling that week, but took on the job anyways. Not only he and his team build my the coolest book launch website ever, they did it with epic swiftness and grace. Everyone I show the website to freaks out over how much they love it. And this was just after a week working together. I'm super excited to see what we can build together in the long term.

I’m Dafne Toro a business strategist, best seller author [The Strategic Business of You], and founder of Strats Coaching. The Rising Author Community is a unique forum for new and expert authors. Is a virtual space to share knowledge and experience, answer questions, get help from experts, and celebrate success! Rising Authors & the Marketing Power Pack helped me with Website development, to advance my author brand, and to understand content author strategies among others. Other highlights of working with Hussein: I recently had the opportunity to work with Hussein and Rising Authors, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! As a first-time author, I was looking for someone who could understand my vision and goals, and transform it through a great communication platform. Hussein delivered exceptional service from start to finish. His ability to understand my needs and communicate effectively was truly impressive. Not only did he bring all his creativity and marketing strategies to transform my website vision to life, but he went above and beyond being a great coach as well. Throughout the process, the communication was outstanding, and I was kept updated on the progress while exchanging constant feedback. I'm thrilled with the final results. The design and functionality of my website have received great feedback. If you're looking for a reliable All-In-One Author Marketing System, look no further than Rising Authors. Thank you, Hussein, for your exceptional work!

Honored to be part of this awesome community. Many thanks to Hussein for creating a place where authors can connect, learn, grow, and share. My favorite thing about Rising Authors is the opportunity to build long-term positive connections with writers and publishing experts.

I'm so grateful to Hussein and the community he created. Publishing journey should feel creative, rewarding, supportive and this is exactly what the community of Rising Authors is all about. I've been invited to collaborate with industry professionals, offer guidance to authors and feel supported to reach out when challenges arise knowing I will get expert advise.

Hussein is remarkably talented in multiple arenas—a few I’ve witnessed firsthand are: growing author online platforms into real communities at scale, leveraging book launches to amplify business leads/sales/consulting opportunities, and supporting authors through the publishing process with genuine goodwill, whole-hearted leadership, and true marketing expertise. Personally, Hussein has helped me tremendously in reconnecting with what’s possible for my business. He helped me improve my messaging to prospective clients and present my offerings in ways that make so much more sense. Because of Hussein’s help, I’m already seeing the difference in my sales calls and leads are already converting at a higher level than before. If you’re thinking about working with Hussein, I highly recommend it. Building your brand as an author can be a daunting and overwhelming process, especially if you’re trying to do it alone, but the right guidance and expertise can truly simplify that process. Thanks to Hussein, I've realized that the sky's not the limit—we're reaching for the stars now.

Whether at the beginning of your book-making process, struggling to pen that first page, or meticulously crafting a final draft, this group has something for you. I was near launching my book when my publisher went bankrupt, and I had to start over. Finding this website was the life preserver I needed. If you are navigating the labyrinthine world of book publishing, check out the Rising Authors Circle.

What a lovely and welcoming community of authors and book professionals! Hussein and his team have curated a beautiful space for support and the exchange of ideas. I'm so grateful to have been invited!

Collaborating with Hussein has been one of the highlights of my professional career. As a coach, he knows how to get people to spend time where it counts: in taking action to make their dreams manifest. I've seen him cut through distractions and excuses to get people to sit down right now and write their book, make their video, build their online presence—whatever creation they set their mind to, Hussein makes sure they get it done today. Hussein's creativity is lightning fast, and from one evaluation he can see new opportunities to make a product better in 50 innovative ways. He's the most humble, devoted, and optimistic professional creative I've ever met, and I leap at every chance to start a new collaboration with him.

I am Dr. Jane J. Bader, an award-winning composer and former music professor. It has been an honor and a privilege to know Hussein and be part of the community he leads. My book, Music for the Developing Brain: A Simple, At-Home Program, is currently in layout and is scheduled to launch in early 2024. For years I have set aside this special hour each week to learn, something I really enjoy doing as long as the material is interesting and useful. Rising Authors checks both boxes and has been a tremendous help with both Q&A plus topics I never realized how little I knew about. Learning about marketing has been especially helpful. This community is a fantastic place for connection and encouragement with others. It has greatly increased my ability to succeed in writing my book. I love the practical aspect concerning which experts are needed and how to connect with them. I am enormously grateful to be working with Rose Friel, also a community member, who is connecting freelancers, Tara Long and Jesse Sussman, to finish my book. Hussein has provided an outstanding example of his life of resilience, and I believe that his book is riveting and should be made into a movie. If you haven't visited Rising Authors, I strongly recommend that you attend a call!

It’s not enough to say that what Hussein has done with Rising Authors is “remarkable” or “amazing,” (which is totally is!). What he’s done is nothing short of soul-saving for so many of us that were displaced, hopeless, and defeated after being unceremoniously screwed by Scribe. He gave us a soft place to land and a supportive, loving community of people going through the same thing; not to mention the mighty collective of fierce, badass experts who’ve come together to guide and nurture displaced authors all the way to the finish line of publication. The most bonkers part is that Hussein created this space for us within days, *hours* even, of sh*t hitting the fan, offering almost immediate comfort and hope to a whole lot of sad people. He’s also the best guy out there to help our authors succeed after publication—to leverage their books, create thriving websites, and build their brands with his carefully curated marketing program. This man is an absolute miracle! 🙌

As a new author, this community has been invaluable to me. It's helped connect me with talented professionals who want to see authors succeed. Community professionals have helped provide guidance on the roadmap for publishing and what options are available at different stages. Hussein's leadership has also faciliated in making this a "rising tides raise all ships" kind of community where authors and editing/illustrating/PM professionals come ready to offer support and enthusiasm on what is often a non-linear and challenging journey for authors.

Hussein is a wonder! He is filled with a phenomenal passion for helping authors break through the arbitrary gates that keep publishing inaccessible. He has a heart for people and a talent for building community, selflessly giving his time and resources to create a place for authors and experts affected by the fallout of a Certain Hybrid Publisher when it imploded in May, 2023. His patience with authors who are new to the world of publishing is legendary. Why he isn't CEO of a publishing company or major marketing agency is a genuine mystery. Perhaps his ethics are too strong for such ventures. As a Book Writing Coach, Ghostwriter, and Editor, I count it a privilege to be a part of Hussein's Rising Authors Community, where he shepherds people with something worth saying through the process of publishing and marketing their work. If the publishing industry had more like him in it, the world would be a better, brighter, more inclusive and informed place.

Founder of Printed Page Studios 9h - Every author and aspiring author can benefit from the wisdom in this post. I highly recommend Hussein if you're looking for help creating a strategy and leveraging your book—not only is he experienced and highly knowledgeable, but he's a gifted community builder who truly cares.

Working with Hussein and the team at RISE Media has been an absolute game-changer in my journey as a newly published author. Hussein's extensive knowledge and creative vision were evident from our very first intake session. He took the time to truly understand my vision, and his collaborative process made me feel like we were co-creating something special. I genuinely look forward to every meeting, always leaving inspired and more determined to conquer my goals. The development of my website has been just the beginning—each project with Hussein has opened up new possibilities and elevated my work to levels I hadn’t even imagined. The personalization they brought to every aspect of our work together was incredible—they genuinely cared about my success and went above and beyond to support me. Hussein and RISE Media were the support system and creative outlet I needed to share my work with the world. I couldn't have asked for a better partner in this journey!

Hussein is a remarkable professional who excels in transforming business authors' expertise into tangible opportunities. His comprehensive approach includes audience growth, creating stunning websites, crafting compelling content, and managing LinkedIn profiles. Hussein's dedication and skill ensure that his clients enhance their online presence and effectively reach and engage their target audience. His expertise is invaluable for anyone looking to leverage their knowledge and boost their professional brand.

I’m Angela Orlando, Odyssey Storytelling’s executive producer. Since even before I took the organization’s reins in March 2024, I knew my first order of business was to elevate our website. I mentioned this in passing to Hussein of Rising Authors and lo and behold, he crafted for us a site we are very proud of. It feels good collaborating with someone with such high standards, quick to respond, and doesn’t leave clients hanging with technical or logistical questions. He even trained our team on site revisions and personalization. I cannot recommend Hussein’s team highly enough.

You did write the book on Resilience! And you've set a great example of how to keep moving forward and use it as fuel for what you really wanted to be doing. 🙏

Love it Hussein Al-Baiaty. I am pleased to be a part of the community now, and I'm pumped for where it will go. In it for the long haul with you brother!!

What I love about Rising Authors is that it’s full of publishing pros who are not just top-level experts but the kind of people who genuinely care about their work and their clients. The members of this community are the types of people who actually read your entire question and give an honest, thoughtful response. Everyone here really wants to be here—they want to help and elevate one another. On top of that, there are regular Q&A calls and masterclasses where you can learn at a deeper level. The platform itself is great—it’s well organized and super easy to navigate. Rising Authors is a brilliantly curated community, and a safe place where you can get the help and support you need for any aspect of the writing and publishing journey.

Hussein is a terrific guide and partner for focusing and amplifying your branding message. Marketing and communications are critical for growing pipeline in any business. Hussein has helped us create and execute a targeted marketing strategy that is producing results. He delivers what he promises.

Hussein is a no-nonsense visionary who tells his clients what they need to hear to have a positive impact on their community.
