“Stacy, I just love reading your newsletters each week. As a small business owner, it’s often hard for me to keep myself motivated. Thankfully I have your newsletters to do it for me. They are so easy to read and understand, and always packed with useful information. I use them as my guide for what I should be focused on next in my business. Please don’t ever stop writing them!” Diane Major www.majorarts.com

“Stacy, I want to thank you for the free gift, 7 Deadliest Marketing Sins, what a great e-book! Most free downloads are worth what you pay but yours gives great value and has very useful ideas! I’ll be using it as I design marketing for my first happiness program, Wake Up Happy! You’re a jewel and I thank you!” Randy Sandknop PracticeHappiness.com

“…my retail sales on the website are up. Mother’s Day Week I actually beat out all my dropshippers on number of total sales, which is a first. I was always frustrated that other sites could sell my product better than my own, but now that has turned around.

I’m still implementing some of your changes for our custom gifts section, but I have a lot done too! Anyway I am getting one custom gift basket order every day. Thank you for advising me back during the first site review that I needed to focus on this area. The section is not even finished and people are still ordering, that’s what I call an obvious demand for a product!

I’m still working on some of the changes we talked about, and still need to do more on the “custom” end of things as far as what I can offer with the gifts, but overall the new site is doing its job!” Kim Shanahan – www.bookbouquet.com

“They say there is a fine line between fishing and standing on the shore like an idiot~~ and Stacy’s expertise really illuminates the difference. Her magic worked on my new website. I continue to get better than an order a week (that’s going on 3 months now)- which is actually a record number of sales for me for this time of year in 34 years of paddle making.

I just can’t put into words how much my plump little bank account appreciates your help!! (I do too- really). I’m gonna crank this machine and make a real living! I’ve been waiting all my life for this. Thanks again…” Jim Snyder www.rivrstyx.com

“Thanks to the information, tools and advice I got from Stacy as I was launching the consulting side of my business, I was able to double my revenues this year! It never would have happened so quickly and easily without her help and guidance.” Nancy Gerber – Stepping Stones www.SStones.com

“Hiring you for a half-day consultation was so worthwhile. We really got a lot of great ideas out of it. I have to admit, at first it was scary following your advice and letting go of the Valpak and other print media, but doing in-person networking and on-site chair massages has been WAY more effective. And it feels better too. People have been really receptive, we started getting referrals right away, and we are now the sole provider of massage at the local Gold’s Gym—all in less than a month! Thanks again for all your help and good advice.” Seana Nelson – Sundance Massage

“Stacy, we are thrilled! The sales letters you wrote pulled so well we had to quit sending them out and focus on refining systems to handle all the new work.” Tony Parks – Evergreen Print Group

“Stacy, thank you so much for the GREAT job you did with our initial consultation. Having your professional, outside perspective was really helpful. We learned a lot, our Website product sales have increased, and best of all it was fun!” Doug Chandler – Northwest Charging Systems

“Thanks so much for the terrific sales letter for our XoftSpy software. As you know, we’ve had a number of writers create letters for us which we have been split-testing on our Website. I just thought you’d like to know that yours is pulling the best! We’re ready for you to start on another project as soon as you have the time.” Don Wharton – Paretologic

“Stacy helped me understand how to cut through my own mental and verbal excesses and present information in way that my prospective clients would also see as clear and simple. With her guidance ringing in my ears I have managed to publish several articles, and feel that I can now write in a way that others will hear.” Rebecca Ross – The Composed Domain

“I came across an article you wrote tonight while browsing the web (10 Pieces of Business-Building Wisdom I Wish I’d Known Years Ago). After, I went and read most of the other articles on your website. I intend on sharing information in your articles with a fellow worker and even my network group. You have provided excellent information and are obviously fantastic at what you do. I plan to stop back at your site more often.” Lori Glynos

“Stacy’s marketing tips and newsletter have been so helpful in starting my new business! Her website hotseat seminar that she had this last week was especially helpful and I can’t wait until the next teleseminar! Thanks Stacy!” Joyce Joneschiet (Jona-shite)

“I’d recommend Stacy to anyone interested in making their business more profitable — except my competition!!! - Gary Bollinger-Smith

“Stacy’s ideas are helping me grow my business faster and easier.” Sue Holm

“I love the tips you send each week. For me there’s an instant connection to them and they really resonate. Often, I’ll be thinking about an idea, get your newsletter, and something you say just clicks and makes so much sense with what is already in my head. There are so many practical ideas in them that work for me. I know a lot of time must go into them because they provide so much useful information. Thank you for sending them.” Tashi Sherpa – Sherpa Outdoor Gear

“I enjoy your weekly ezine and appreciate the time you take to help fledgling copywriters like me. What I like about your newsletter is that you keep things simple. Two of the best for me were “Ten Terrific Reasons to Hire a Professional Copywriter” and the “Professional Copywriter’s Checklist.” I printed both and keep them handy in my New Clients file.

Your current newsletters on creating a website are particularly helpful. I don’t have one yet and wonder what the heck I’d put in one at this point in my new career. I print all your newsletters and file them in appropriate files.

And speaking of keeping info simple, in your (email) response you said, “pick a target market, discover their pain or problem, and show how you can solve it.” AWAI is a great (copywriting) course, and they say the same thing, but it takes them longer to say it. LOL” Marie Cook Waehler

“Stacy, thank you for providing a wealth of information in your newsletter and on your Website. It’s made such an impact on my freelance writing career. Your insightful articles have given me tips to improve my marketing efforts, and I am currently working my way through the wonderful books on your recommended reading list. But most of all, I have appreciated the time you’ve taken to provide honest, thoughtful answers to my questions.” Angela Russell – Freelance Writer

“I have really gotten a lot of valuable information from your e-newsletter. I’ve been reading them weekly for about a year and a half, and the tips you provide have been so helpful. I really encourage every business owner to sign up!” Nancy Reilly – NCR Accounting

Stacy, I’m a reader of your ezine and have heard you speak (eWomen). I always find your information timely and valuable, so thank you! I loved the article today on Procrastination (I used a big “P” on purpose since it’s a big issue for so many people), especially your first tip.” Debbie Rosemont, CPO www.itssimplyplaced.com

“Great feature. I read your emails because they are warm, relatable and have good info.” Todd Pierson, Pierson Studios www.piersonkids.com

“If you are looking for someone to get your marketing to sizzle, Stacy is your gal! I receive her regular emails, and have heard her speak. She has some really good ideas and has a fantastic delivery. I would highly reccomend her as a marketing coach as well as a motivational speaker.” Lisa Kee – Mortgage Advisor, Mortgage Advisory Group
