She is the visionary and featured expert for Tell it Now PR Marketing Conference, which puts powerful public relations and marketing tools in the hands of small-to-midsize business owners, and the Marketing Coordinator behind Jumpstart Your Business Memphis (JSYB), a business/professional development-focused podcast with a reach of over 1.5 million listeners. Hosted by WorldFamous LeVeda McCou, the new season of JSYB launches August 15, 2022!
Sharen had also served as Event Coordinator, Born 2 Win nonprofit fundraiser and the annual ALL THAT JAZZ FEST! Sharen is the Creator of the Marketing Done Right Series; quarterly workshops for aspiring and growing small-to-medium size business owners. She teaches participants how to shape their brand, augment their client base, to maximize their web presence and benefit from social websites, to differentiate between marketing and advertising and more. The added components of Q&A discussion and professional networking mixer format enhance each clinic.
Sharen volunteers much of her time to education, outreach ministries, domestic violence efforts and various issues pertaining to women and health. Her continued advocacy for justice impacted individuals has garnered amazing support and a most recent documentary project which was halted when the pandemic hit the world. She also lent time to Delta Sigma Theta, where she served as an honorary judge for the Mother of the Year 2005 competition. She is a former National Advisory Board for NAWR (National Association of Women on the Rise) and former volunteer Chair for On Location Memphis. She most recently held a community appointment as an advisory board member for the Shelby County Relative Caregivers Program. Sharen is also a proud and active member of the National Public Relations Society, member of Tennessee Women Film and Media, and active supporter of City of Memphis C.O.P.S. program in partnership with the Memphis Police Department and a recent graduate of Memphis Citizens Police Academy. Sharen will soon begin her role as the newly appointed Director of Business Administration for the Memphis Sports and Events Center.
As her testimony of the fortitude she found through faith, Sharen Rooks authored What Happens When God Moves (ISBN 9781420830125) – a truly inspirational story about the life of a young woman and the many trials and tribulations she experiences over a decade. Her story is riveting and includes some really horrific circumstances that would break some of the strongest people down. Her story includes an incident of incest which results in pregnancy, the death of a child, brief incarceration, witnessing a shooting, almost becoming homeless, and losing her job. Through the grace of God, these adversities develop this young entrepreneur into a very successful businesswoman, motivational speaker, consultant, singer, actor and author.
This true story should inspire others to never give up and keep the faith and to walk in the direction that the Lord is leading you in at all times. The book will also minister to couples facing rocky times in their marriage. The struggle comes before success! The story unfolds to reveal God’s true purpose for living in victory!
