Testimonials
“Simply put, we could not do our work without Natalie and we would not be where we are today without her.”
Cleo Zundel, Director of Development
Southside Early Childhood Center
“Natalie has truly played such a fundamental role in the development of our organization over the years. Since 2016, Natalie has worked with us in a variety of ways. From developing a unique and cohesive brand identity to conceptualizing event and fundraising appeal themes, Natalie's support has played a tremendous role in the success of SouthSide.
She deeply understands our mission and organization as a whole and goes above and beyond what a typical consultant offers. Her expertise and knowledge of the field have guided us through numerous campaigns and events, ultimately leading to increased revenue generated for SouthSide. Our time together often feels like therapy, and we leave meetings feeling inspired and refreshed.
“When I met Natalie, our organization had no mission, vision, defined values, intentional voice, or story—and absolutely no marketing materials. I met Natalie at a workshop that she led about branding, voice, and storytelling. Within minutes of her speaking, I was hooked. Natalie's charm, warmth, intelligence, and confidence just made me want more of her. When my organization decided to use Natalie to help build our brand and marketing materials, we had no idea the quality we were actually going to get. Natalie spent hours with us listening to our stories and pulling out the heart of what we do.
She met with families and clients whom we serve to best understand our mission and services. She was like a seasoned journalist, so committed to getting the story right. And, our marketing materials are beautiful—I feel so proud to read them, hold them, and hand them out. I am forever grateful for the way that Natalie elevated our organization through what she created for us and how she listened to us deeply, pivoted as goals and needs shifted, and kept us focused on the tasks at hand. She is such a talented woman who over-delivered in every way.”
“Based on her in-depth research, attentive interviews, curiosity, and patience, she was able to help us develop a mission, vision, set of values, case for support, and strategic plan—as well as marketing and fundraising materials that told our story in the tone that is at our heart.”
