Testimonial
“Merry Ann helped us get off the ground from fledgling startup to a soon-to-be profitable company. She pushed us to think outside the box and really got us thinking about a comprehensive communication strategy. She was most instrumental in developing quality content and a ‘pitch’ for our instruments. Our acoustic guitars are of the highest quality and therefore demand a high price. Merry Ann worked to understand what made us special and how we delivered value. That was key to building the brand. Our growth is definitely attributable to the combination of a wonderful product and a great, great message that resonates in the market.”
