Everything in Premium, plus:
The credibility of Forbes, without the time commitment.
A Forbes Council membership is one of the most powerful credibility signals a founder or executive can carry. It opens doors to press, partnerships, and positioning that few other platforms can match. Forbes offers Council memberships across industries including Agency, Communications, Human Resources, Coaching, Business, Nonprofit, Technology, Finance, and Business Development.
What you get through Strana:
Application & Onboarding — Done For You
Through established relationships with Forbes, we personally oversee your application to maximize your approval chances. Once accepted, we manage your onboarding, coordinate your kickoff call, and get your account activated — so you never have to navigate the process alone.
Monthly Feature Articles — Written, Edited, Published
We develop a content plan tailored to your expertise and brand voice, pitch it for your approval, then handle everything from first draft through the editorial back-and-forth with Forbes editors. You review one draft for alignment — that's it. Everything else is handled.
Expert Panel Monitoring & Submissions
We actively monitor Forbes Expert Panel opportunities and submit entries on your behalf to increase your publishing frequency through their roundup features — a high-visibility, low-effort way to keep your name in circulation.
Your only job: approve the draft. We handle the rest.
Investment:
Forbes Council membership starts at $2,700/year with a one-time $600 initiation fee (paid directly to Forbes — and often negotiable once the process begins). Strana's management fee for the full publishing and account management service is billed separately as part of your content package or as a standalone engagement.
