Lorraine Ranalli – Ghostwriter

Write first, think later. I'm a grammar fanatic who understands that the story has to first be told before it can be perfected. Let's talk!

Overview

I am a writer, speaker, and Public Speaking coach. Branding, messaging, and media relations are my specialty. With passion and years of media experience, I help organizations direct corporate communications and public relations (aka targeted content development). Together we'll hone internal messaging to maximize the effectiveness of your foremost means of external communications—your people. 

"Impact: Deliver Effective, Meaningful, and Memorable Presentations" (POPbooks 2018) is my pocket guide of more than 200 public speaking tips. I wrote this for busy professionals in need of a quick reference guide and as a classroom supplement for Public Speaking instructors and students. Contact me for information about my Public Speaking and soft skills workshops.In 2009, I drew upon personal experiences to pen the humorous cultural narrative "Gravy Wars: South Philly Foods, Feuds & Attytudes" (Folger Ross). The comedic stage show "La Famiglia," followed. 

My career began behind a microphone as a reporter on Philadelphia broadcast outlets KYW Newsradio, 1210 WPHT, 6abc Action News, and Fox29, and as a disc jockey on B101 and WMGK. Marketing RV with Ranalli and Volpe brought me full circle. Behind a mic again, I cohost the podcast with Digital Architect Gene Volpe. We eat, drink, and interview amazing movers and shakers, all while delivering tangible takeaways in each show. Download Marketing RV wherever you get podcasts or visit more at me via
