TESTIMONIALS

"It was one of the best trainings I've been to in years with a lot of good takeaways. What a way to innovate
and make our writing even better.”

"Just a quick note to thank you for the class yesterday, which came in handy just about immediately. After the class I learned about a mailing mix up involving about a dozen absentee ballot packets we sent recently. So this morning I was already using yesterday’s lessons to draft a message to the affected voters. Great class, and great timing."

"Great session! Besides good training, you made it entertaining. Thank you."

"Thank you so much for presenting to our staff at our annual meeting. I heard rave reviews, and one of our assistant directors is recommending you for future training opportunities. (He's a tough sell, so you must've knocked it out of the park!) He said your stuff was really helpful and applicable to our work."
