• Customer Management Experience

For over 6 weeks, I mulled over various names for my new business, but none quite did it for me. In less than 2 hours, Patti was able to capture the essence of who I was and what I would be doing in my business. She was able to wade through the myriad of thoughts I was presenting her with and came up with a name that met all my criteria.

I also appreciated her insight, her passion for was she does and her customer focus. Patti is not about whistles and bells. She’s about getting the job done effectively. Her practical, down to earth approach to marketing was refreshing and just what I needed. Thank you, Patti!  Michelle Romanica

Alleyne Hardaker, owner of Acton House Bed and Breakfast says....."Three years after opening, room bookings were dismal.  Patti consulted with me and made some suggestions and that summer my bookings increased 38%!! I'm as busy as I want to be."

• Lola Design (graphic designer)

"Working with Patti meant thinking about a LOT of things I'd never given much thought to. It's amazing how these  little changes, and " tweaks" can make such a big difference in how I introduce myself, describe my business and communicate with others.

Patti had many great suggestions, from email signatures, to my "elevator speech", to even the way I dress for a business event! Its all these "little things" that, when put together and done consistently, have helped me market myself much better over the last few months."

• RealWat Inc. (IT development)

"I hired Patti to help RealWat Inc. clarify its sales and marketing strategies and review our business plan.  Patti did a great job helping us define and improve our sales  and marketing strategies, so that we could better target our market.  At RealWat Inc., we viewed Patti’s ideas and suggestions highly.  I have no hesitation in recommending Patti to coach an entrepreneur like myself in sales and marketing.”

• Thermohair (manufacturer/distributor)

I met Patti at a women's networking event and asked her if she could help me with my trade show booth signage, as well as comment on my product brochure.  She has an objective, experienced eye to make a booth stand out and catch the consumer's eye. Her fees were very reasonable.  I still contact her on occasion for some marketing advice which she gives freely and efficiently.  I have no hesitation recommending her to anyone who needs either a nudge or major marketing strategies.
