Client Testimonials

  • "I so appreciate your thoughtful, astute and comprehensive work on my behalf. It's all very inspiring, and although I have a lot to think about and do, it'll be FUN and I'm really looking forward to it. Thank you so much for your invaluable time and help. I feel like I absorbed a semester's worth of marketing info in an hour."

    Suzanne F., LA-Based Actor

  • "Working with Alison was a fantastic experience that I would recommend to any small business looking for practical marketing tactics that they can implement today. Alison provided tangible feedback on all aspects of the customer facing experience of my business & really helped me hone in on the best steps to take. It feels really amazing to be met where I'm at & feel that these suggestions will have a meaningful impact on the business problems I am trying to address! It was a fantastic jumpstart on my business this year. I was nervous about the meeting initially - I've felt a lack of motivation around my business this past year & an inability to figure out my next steps. Now I feel hopeful & energized ~ Thank you Alison! I highly recommend your services to anyone in need of marketing assistance."

    Whitney M., CEO of Silhouette and Shadow

  • “Thank you so much. You’re the first person to provide actual custom brand strategy and not just telling me how to use an app or how many times to post per week.”

    Staci T., Commercial Producer

  • “Our one-on-one was a giant leap forward for me defining my brand…the time I take to create actor focused content is joyful when I get around to doing it. I also feel the connection between my audience grow as I continue to navigate what exactly my voice is.”

    Caitlin B., NYC-Based Actor

  • “I’ve worked in Social Media for wedding vendors for a few years now. I’ve grown client’s pages significantly, connected them with and had them featured in world renowned wedding publications, and more. They’ve found immense success, and “their people”, time and time again. It’s been an honor to champion them and work with them toward these goals! But when it came to growing my own page as an Author, I fell on my face again and again. I could never quite get into a groove, wasn’t sure how to hone in on my audience, and the phrase “niche down” was giving my nightmares. I was so stuck I would ghost my own page and just stop posting for weeks and months at a time. ONE CALL with Alison changed all of that. She highlighted where my niche already was, and how to even better highlight it and showcase it to further attract a bigger community. She gave me encouraging but *real* pep talks—speaking to my challenges only to show me how easily and applicably I could turn them around and make them strengths. I may just frame the notes she provided via email after the callThey’re SO HELPFUL, intentional, smart, and strategic without feeling intimidating. My ONLY regret is…I wish I would have hired her sooner!!!I’m so thankful for the 1-1 I had with Alison, and truly cannot recommend her services enough—Actor, Author, Baker, what have you—you and your business need and deserve Alison!”

    Kelsey P., Author

  • “It was so wonderful getting to meet and consult with you! I feel so empowered and excited to start creating content and showing up more confidently on social media. I can't wait to get started! :) Thank you so much for your help!”

    Amor O., NYC-Based Actor

  • “This (the notes from the session) is gonna be my Bible as I make this transition!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!!!”

    Mari T., Actor, Reality TV Contestant, Gaming Streamer

  • “Thank you for selflessly sharing your talents so that others can unlock the canvas of their unique voice and presence.”
