What our happiest clients have to say
Testimonial
Director of Business Development: “Ron and his associate Jeff Brubaker helped us by acting as a reflection point for [our Company], providing valuable feedback on how we were communicating our message externally. They helped [our Company] explain a complex product and service to a specialized market. It forced [our Company] to pivot from explaining our message to ourselves to explaining the message to the marketplace. They also forced us to shift from an internal 2 R&D process to an external sales cycle. They were very accessible, and they customized their marketing expertise to meet our specific needs.”
Vice President of Client Development: “It was an honor for me and the entire [Company] Client Development team to work and learn from Ron. The support touched and tuned the [Company] mindset about organizational structure, growth, and sales expansion. Every minute spent with Ron was a minute of expansive learning. I appreciated Ron’s introduction of multiple new dimensions to our organization and team.”
from a Letter of Recommendation by a CEO to a Government Economic Development Agency
"He had a wide breath of knowledge to sort through what he was hearing, extract the nugget of a good concept and was able to build a viable research project around it to prove out its value. The give and take of discussions with him to flesh out an idea was always an exciting and productive task"
