GBEffective and Productive Session Jen is a real pro and I've found our sessions to be extremely helpful in preparing me for media interviews. I've learned to adopt my own communication strategy with the media (i.e. having silver bullet themes and recognizing which questions match to these themes). Also I've gained insight into my speaking style -- what is effective and what I need to adjust so I don't get stumped by a question.

GBPro tip: Hire Bill Bill is the consummate pro—he not only understood exactly what we needed but also was able to turn on a dime to advise on new issues. His guidelines on branding and messaging were spot-on, and the examples he showed were so memorable, I could recount them to people weeks later. We've already booked him for another project.
