Laurel hit the nail right on the head. She targeted her presentation to our attendee’s needs by researching and exploring their businesses before hand. People left with ideas they could put to use right away.

The Dallas Market Center’s buyers and retailers had nothing but kind words to say about Laurel Tielis’s presentation. She was informative, witty, and best of all, relatable to our audience. She provided our audience with great advice they can utilize when they return home to their retail stores. Laurel was a delight to work with and I look forward to working together again in the near future!

I enjoyed your seminar, bought the book and read it immediately. It offered good advise and practical examples. What I liked most about the book was it inspired me. Thank you many times for this. I wrote a “draft” press release that same day. Well, let me tell you it paid off right away.
Gladys Aleman, Puerto Rico Tourism
Laurel is the consummate professional: knowledgeable, witty and wise. She was the perfect addition to our recent expert panel at the San Francisco International Gift Fair.

I cannot tell you how much your class meant to me. I walked away feeling that I have an action plan and information I need to get started with it. How many times can you spend an hour with someone and get this much information. Thank you so much.

You helped to make our Women In Imaging meeting effective and enjoyable. I haven’t stopped thinking about how to give you more exposure with all of the PMA vendors and members. I truly feel that our entire industry can use your information. Thanks again for a wonderful presentation.

The seminar was great; I actually have Twitter and blogging on my to-do list, which is a good thing.
Ed Honesto, Master Tractor
I really enjoyed attending your seminars. I knew nothing about marketing before your talks, but you provided me with a lot of useful information that will help me with my notary/loan signing business. I am going to use your newsletter approach and my mind is whirling with all the new things I’ll be doing.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading your book. I thought it was fun to read and very informative. The sample press kit materials and lists of ideas were great. I am going to give one to a friend of mine who is opening a boutique. Great work!
Marilyn Yu Li, Plutonium Clothing
Thank you so much for writing the book. It’s an excellent resource. I’ll keep it in my library for future reference and I’m sure I’ll go to to it for ideas regarding all our PR needs.
