    Brendan Manley | Co-Founder, Kaiba & iCAMP

  • “CJC was incredibly valuable to my small, yet growing company! I run a private tutoring business and CJC was instrumental in supporting our development during a critical time of growth. CJC provided a very thorough and thought provoking presentation that was critical for me to understand all aspects of the realm within which my company sits. She provided both long term suggestions and short term 'quick wins.' CJC really listened to my company's needs and everything felt truly personalized and unique. Ciara was professional and available to communicate anytime. She even continued to answer some of my questions long after our time together ended. Now, years later, I still utilize a lot of the work we did together and owe a ton of my continued growth to Ciara and CJC.”

    Laura Giske | Founder, Laura Giske Tutoring

  • “CJC is the very BEST! I have been honored to work with her for years; and have a front row seat to her ability to take an idea into fruition!”

    Sara Hart Weir | Co-Founder, ENABLE TOMORROW

  • Ciara was engaged by Industry City to evaluate our marketing team. She demonstrated a strong knowledge and understanding of industry trends, strategies and best practices. She collaborated very effectively with the Partners and senior members of the leasing and management teams to identify the issues and map out a go forward plan. She was always very professional and demonstrated excellent communication skills. We ultimately pursued a re-structuring of the marketing team based on her recommendations. My overall experience with Ciara was excellent and I would highly recommend her services to others. She was able to effectively communicate marketing strategy and trends to an audience with limited marketing expertise.

    Alane Berkowitz | COO, Industry City

  • "Branding is not something that I have previously been involved in, and our particular request was a bit complicated. Ciara was masterful in navigating our needs to develop a final product that accurately reflected our requests. Overall, our team was extremely pleased with the result and would recommend her to other potential clients."
