Hi, I’m Susan Dean.
I started my own publishing company because I wanted to share people’s stories and knowledge, as I truly believe that stories change lives.
Rewind to the beginning – I always knew I wanted to help others. After starting my career as a youth worker, I quickly learned the power of story. When someone heard about another’s achievements, it made them think, “Maybe I could do that.” It gave them hope.
I then became a coach, working with Dr John Gray, author of Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus. People learnt so much from reading his book, and that sharing of knowledge inspired me. I thought, I need to share my story too. So, I did.
From this, my coaching business grew even faster. Handing out my book gave people the opportunity to get to know, like and trust me. This success made me want to help others do the same.
I have always listened to people’s stories, using tremendous empathy to empower others toward success. This has become my signature trait.
A huge part of my ‘why’ is giving back my time and resources. This has driven me to be a part of many wonderful ‘giving back’ projects, such as Buy1Give1, Rotary Club, BNI Australia and Hands Across the Water.
I am a life and business coach, workshop and training facilitator, publisher and entrepreneur. With my help, coaches, authors, mentors and many other business professionals have been able to share their knowledge and exponentially raise their profile, brand and business.
I am a visionary and always think of new ways business owners can level up in their business, so I have created additional products like audiobooks, online courses, journals, quote cards and more. I truly love what I do, and I’m excited to help you share about your passion.
“We close down, we shut down, when in fact we should open up and share what we have been through.”
“If they shared their stories, they could also have an impact in the world.”
Q: What is a tip you would tell your younger self?
A: I would say just go for it and do what you want in life.

“Susan and her team from Dean Publishing are very professional and ethical. I felt like the first time I meet Susan, I was not only impressed by her work, but also by the fact that she understood what I was looking to achieve in a book. Susan coached me and set the agenda and I have not looked back. The writers’ retreat was fantastic to meet like-minded people and the dream team behind Dean Publishing, and to get your professional photos, videos and content pulled together with an action plan is simply amazing. I have no hesitation in recommending Susan and her amazing team for any aspiring author.”

“Writing a book, especially one that is partly autobiographical, is a huge task, not only in time but emotionally as well. The person you trust with your story needs to not only have your best interests at heart, but understand that your book is your ‘baby’. Susan and the team she has put together provide the utmost support and guidance, not only to get your book published but to be there for you every step of the way. If you have a book in you, she in the only choice!”

“Hi, I’m Dr John Gray, the author of Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus, an internationally bestselling book with over 15 million copies sold. With my experience, I feel very comfortable in saying that I know the publishing industry. Being an author can really help your profile, your success in business, and help you reach new clients and be more successful.
So, I wanted my own Mars Venus coaches from around the world to have the same experience that I’ve had in various degrees – to work with an expert, a professional, someone that people would really trust and work with. So, I co-authored a book with them called Love and Coaching, and with this book, I wanted to work with somebody that I trusted, somebody who could make this easy for my coaches. So, I called on Susan Dean.
I’ve known Susan Dean since 2000. She was the first female Mars Venus coach in Australia and has a great publishing company.
I highly recommend her services, and in the future, I look forward to working with her again. I’ve worked with many publishers over the years, and I can tell you that Susan is absolutely one of the best. So, I wish you the very best.”
