Having Maryann on your team is a stroke of good luck–but get on it before all her time is booked! I highly recommend Maryann’s services to anyone looking to expand their business and fine tune their image. You won’t find more quality assistance. She’s one of the best people I’ve worked with in over 10 years of owning my own businesses.”

I confidently ‘consulted’ with her only as needed as she proactively, thoroughly, caringly, and effectively recreated the systems, found volunteer workers, ordered the perfect products and created the welcoming space that brought 400% year over year gain from bookstore proceeds to our organization. Maryann is a joy to know and a pleasure to work beside. I am honored and delighted to have retained her to assist us with our marketing and PR going forward.”
