“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. As part of the Brand Diagnostic and Action Plan, Ciara reviewed my company's goals and current stats as well as researched industry standards and competitors to help create a unique presentation for my company. 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.' I really appreciate both sets of goals, as it made working towards these goals more attainable. 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.”

“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. We further engaged Ciara to help us draft a job description and spearhead the recruitment of a new Head of Marketing. My overall experience with Ciara was excellent and I would highly recommend her services to others. She has standout listening and communication qualities. She was able to effectively communicate marketing strategy and trends to an audience with limited marketing expertise.”
