“As a female executive and a spokesperson for my former employer, a real estate investment firm, it was important to me to hire a professional with an extensive background in media relations and crisis communications to address the specific needs of the company. I was immediately impressed by Suzanne Spurgeon. Suzanne's insight and impressive background was critical in targeting the right messages for our company. She was quickly able to grasp the objectives we wished to accomplish and put a comprehensive crisis plan of action together tailored specifically to our needs. Suzanne worked with me and other key staff members to learn how to effectively respond to even the most difficult media and crisis issues and she was an invaluable advisor to me in my leadership role. I highly recommend Suzanne Spurgeon and look forward to working with her again.”

“I always avoided the media because I felt that I looked awkward in front of a camera and didn't like how my voice sounded. Suzanne Spurgeon's media training services, which blended humor, rigorous honesty, and her vast knowledge of the most effective ways to present to the media, helped me solve these problems. Now I look forward to on camera interviews, instead of dreading them.”
