Melissa's workshop on how to develop your content calendar was packed with both guided action exercises and valuable information. Afterwards I felt inspired and capable of creating content for my business all on my own. Your workshop was relatable, encouraging, and included great content I hadn't experienced elsewhere—you're a pro.

She captivated our attention and communicated the content in a way that was effective and fun and easy to understand.

Melissa is one of the most prepared and articulate presenters one could ask for. She helped craft the panel discussion questions and was able to ensure the discussion was relatable to the industry we were discussing and the experience of those in the audience. I would be honored to have Melissa speak at any event in the future.
- Michelle Winnett, Senior Director of Marketing
I've had the pleasure of attending many of Melissa's trainings on marketing + selling and they have had a huge impact in my business. I used to feel slimy when selling my services even though I knew I could offer great value to my clients. From Melissa's sessions I now look forward to marketing my business and creating content. I cannot recommend Melissa enough as a speaker.
- Alexandra Greiner, Founder & Designer
I attended one of Melissa's presentations, and the very next day I was able to apply what I learned! I gave a friend some just-in-time advice, and used the information from the we learned during the presentation. I also feel confident in creating my Instagram content now to advertise my personal finance coaching. It felt very empowering.
