“I think it's pure genius to offer an affordable, DIY PR service for small businesses that are in the early stage of their development. Not only did I find the four-hour training very helpful, but Rebekah also prepared two media pitches, a pitch schedule for me to implement each week prior to my event, and an extensive media list. After the training, I felt more than confident when pitching the media. ”
— Sandra Foreman, founder of The Spa in Me, LLC
“After taking your Holiday Gift Guide webinar, I was able to land my products in both Traditional Home and Southern Living magazines for Nov/Dec! For a small business like mine, this is huge and I would not have known where to even start without your course.”
— Ashley Pinchev, Founder of Worthington Corners
“Rebekah's not only approachable and open, but she gave me actual examples of real facts and real templates. She didn't generalize. She gave direction. I have enough general knowledge from my professional career. What I was looking for were hard facts that I could emulate and learn. How to pitch my brand, approach new clients, and making lasting business relationships. As we speak, I'm putting together my emails and my first round of pitches with more confidence than ever before.”
— Alice Allen, Founder of Finks and Co.
