  • EXPERIENCE

    As a Brand Strategist, I believe that a strong brand creates strong conversations between companies and their audiences. From external branding (logo, web site design, collateral pieces) to internal employee branding (elevator speeches, email signatures, customer service standards and voicemail greetings), a strong brand identity is what makes a customer engage and connect.

    Business Optimization Specialist - Go From Stuck to Growing - EVERNOTE BUSINESS CERTIFIED CONSULTANT

    After interviewing several firms to help Boleros design a new website, it became very obvious right away that Amy’s approach was far different than that of any other. Amy didn’t come with any pre-conceived template, design or format. Instead, Amy took a full branding approach and spent the time to understand our business, what drives our income and how to position things for maximum effect. What we got was not just an updated website but instead a site that we were proud to show off - one that got rave reviews, demonstrated the look and feel that we were looking for and, most of all, helped drive new business. After the re-branding, the phone started to light up...people were calling. They were stating how they were very impressed with the feel of Boleros without even ever being in our building. Our brand image was communicated through Amy’s recommendations for pictures to use, layout and also extremely important – writing of the copy to include in our website to help tell our story in an engaging manner. The prospective customers and clients were able to get the true essence of Boleros. Amy, we thank you for your amazing insights and creative design that has helped Boleros achieve things that we never knew possible. You are truly one of a kind.

    Amy is a rare and valuable asset to any project. She looks at things from a problem solving, creative approach with planning and execution. She is un-intimidated by obstacles and enjoys overcoming challenges where others give up. Specifically, her skills range from writing and editing to web design and social media in numerous fields. She doesn't only perform the given function but participates in the strategic planning for the projects success. She takes a deep and genuine interest and understanding of whatever she's working on and then determines how to have an affect of the final result. I've learned that she's almost always right and it saves me time and money to trust her judgement.

    Regardless of the type of industry, any endeavor is improved by her involvement. She's decisive, creative, maintains a timeline and contributes greatly to the overall outcome. Most importantly, she's fun to work with, does it all precisely and gracefully. I have asked Amy to be a part of multiple projects and always knew she would come through in a big way.

    Her only mistake is not charging more for her exemplary work because she deserves it! She's an undiscovered find.

    Having worked with Amy on a project to redesign the website and marketing materials for Catering By Liz I can attest to her creative vision and marketing brilliance. She expertly designed and implemented the brand makeover and the results raised the quality of her client's marketing materials to properly reflect the superb quality of the products and services. I have also had the privilege of listening to her advice regarding brand and corporate identity on more than one occasion and would readily recommend her to any client who is interested in raising the quality and effectiveness of their marketing strategies. Amy is a pleasure to work with and I look forward to future projects with her. Her branding knowledge is immense!
