Results and Client Feedback
The client embraced the process with enthusiasm, quickly implementing the guidance provided. Here’s what she had to say:
"I've been following Gwen for over a year on social media and finally decided to take the plunge. It's definitely worth EVERY penny. Gwen performed an audit on all of my social media sites, as well as my website, and created a highly detailed marketing review analyzing what I am currently utilizing and how to optimize my content reach.
The report was 8 pages long, and chock full of so many amazing tips, tricks, ideas, and strategies I can use to help grow my business. But the coaching didn't stop there. For the next four weeks, we met via Zoom to discuss my progress on the homework she gave me, and I was able to ask questions.
I have already seen a spike in following of all of my social media outlets, and have had more signups on my newsletter, which has resulted in sales. What she provided me in four weeks would have taken me months, if not years to figure out. If you are questioning whether to work with Gwen, just do it!"
