Get Known Now Testimonials
| "Suzanne
is a business professional's dream come true. " |
 |
"I
took Suzanne's class to help with
the repositioning of our company and redesign of our web
site. One of the most helpful parts
was her expertise in learning
how to market our business electronically (how to promote
the web site, how to make sure search engines are your friend,
how to tag articles and "freebies" to drive traffic,
how to put together a great media kit - to name a few). I
was impressed and helped tremendously by her access to high
quality resources. Suzanne's resources
saved me invaluable time and money while improving the quality
of the final product immensely. If you only have one
thing you can invest in this year - I highly recommend that
investment be in this class."
-- Kathryn Jackson,
Response Design Corporation

|
|
| "I
am meeting an editor of a magazine with a 800,000 circulation
here in the UK – just part of the impact of working
with Suzanne!" |
 |
"As
an established entrepreneur I knew it would take a red-hot
coach to help me raise the bar even further as I create
my newest platform. Suzanne is like a pocket dynamo –
working with her means my focus is sharp & momentum
sustained. Next week I am meeting an editor of a magazine
with a 800,000 circulation here
in the UK – a feature on me as a business-mother is
planned for the New Year – just part of the impact
of working with Suzanne!"
- Danusia
Malina-Derben

|
|
| "Suzanne
knows what she’s talking about and I highly recommend
listening to her!"
|
 |
"Before
I started working with Suzanne I was so frustrated with
my business that I was ready to give it all up. Suzanne’s
consulting turned that around for me. She’s helped
me gain greater clarity in all areas of my business
-- and through her brilliant copywriting talent,
Suzanne has shown me how to turn my website into
a marketing tool instead of a bunch of pages with words
on it. "
-- Linda Salazar
www.awakenthegeniewithin.com |
|
|
| "Within
weeks, I saw my creativity
explode, target market become crystal clear and marketing
productivity increase tenfold." |
 |
Before
I enrolled in Suzanne's class,
I had a vague idea that I wanted to build my brand and play
bigger in my business and the world. But I had many
questions, some anxieties and a very fuzzy sense of who
my target market really was. The
combination of Suzanne's extremely down-to-earth and genuine
demeanor, personal guidance and exceptional materials make
this program worth its weight in gold. Thank you
Suzanne and keep up the great work!
-Pamela

|
|
| "In
the first five minutes of our consulting session,
Suzanne
was able to concisely sum up my brand and vision – something
I’d been struggling with for months." |
 |
"Being
able to objectively look at yourself and your business is
one of the hardest parts of marketing. I know – as
a copywriter and marketing professional I do it all the
time for my clients. So when it came time to brand myself,
I took my own advice and hired a professional for help –
Suzanne Falter-Barns. I highly recommend her.
"
- Michele Pariza Wacek,
www.theartistsoul.com |
|
|
| "Suzanne
help me double my mailing list in just two months! It's at
4800 and still growing!" |
 |
As
far as Suzanne Falter-Barns' consulting goes, I will
let the numbers speak for themselves... my
site is currently ranked 122,746 ...
out of three and one half billion world wide!
I get nearly 7,000 visitors per day, and more than a million
paper toys have been downloaded.
Thanks to Suzanne’s promotional help my children’s
book illustration career has really taken off! I am currently
working on my third book! Thanks, Suzanne!

| "
After only three classes, I've
taken more initiative and action in my business than I have
in the last ...
well, let's just say in a very long time."
|
 |
I
am currently taking Suzanne's Platform Push program and
I'm thrilled at what's happened so far. Having access to
Suzanne's experience and in-depth knowledge has had me feeling
like I've been blessed by the "Creativity Fairy".
I have no doubt that as a result of taking this program
and working with Suzanne, I will create and sustain an inspirational
and successful business online.

| “My new site has
given me incredible credibility!” |
|
“When I send the
media or a potential speaking venue to the site,
they are always impressed. And, now when a prospective
client calls, they hire me 95% of the time,
because the website has given them an opportunity to get
to know me, before they pick up the phone.”
- Lin Schreiber,

| “Suzanne’s
consulting has helped me to identify ways to really express
myself and my passion!” |
 |
|
|
|
| "You
have really made me think bigger and with more clarity than
I ever have before." |
 |
"Suzanne
-- It’s amazing…you have been pushing
me each week to dig down for my real message…my true
self…I have worked with several coaches and they all
have helped me move to another level…which has been
great; but what you have done is really rattled me and
made me think…'What is my
message here?'
"Last
night I got out of bed at 1 am and started writing.
All the things we have been working on seem to be falling
into place. It’s so exciting!
Thanks so much for helping me find my voice.
