About Nancy S. Juetten’s Media Relations Workshops
Nancy Juetten is a refreshing, energetic, and knowledgeable speaker. She lends her tips for improved publicity to small business owners in a captivating way. All of our June 10, 2008 attendees walked away with concrete ways to implement or augment their own campaigns. Very relevant information!

Last Friday’s June 6, 2008 presentation was GREAT! Everyone went home with useful, practical tips they could immediately put to use. I like how you empower your audience and make every person feel like they can be more media savvy.Hendricka Benjamins, Programming Chair, North Seattle Community College Network Breakfast, www.learnatnorth.org/breakfast.htm

Nancy Juetten spoke to 50+ small and medium sized business owners at our Boss Business Seminar in May ’08 on the topic of ‘The Power of Free Publicity.’ I would describe her presentation as electric with all the energy and impact of a thunderbolt shooting through the room. By the end of the talk everyone (including me) was ready to go out and be seen, heard, and celebrated for our winning ways.

The May 6. 2008 media relations seminar Nancy Juetten offered was truly one of the best seminars I have attended in over twenty years of business. An inspired presenter who speaks from the heart, Nancy offered practical ideas which can be simply implemented by any size organization. Her insights into everyday marketing contained well thought out and easily obtainable objectives. She energetically engaged the entire room full of experienced and novice business owners by freely sharing a wealth of ideas on creating a “buzz” about their businesses. From blogging to using video clips, Nancy described a method for creating the ultimate guerrilla marketing campaign without tapping into an advertising budget. Her information came in the nick of time for our business as we have been struggling with how to allocate our advertising dollars. She helped us to realize that we didn’t have to spend a great deal to have an enormously successful grassroots campaign. If you want to recession proof your business, you need to hear Nancy. Just don’t tell your competition about her!

Nancy’s presentation was full of straightforward information that was easy to understand and simple to implement! Her Media-Savvy-To-Go Publicity Kit was also a real winner with our group allowing the opportunity to execute her tips of the trade back at the office or on the go. We are excited to apply her media-savvy methods to gain us better coverage from our media contacts.Thanks again, Nancy for your informative and entertaining presentation!Mike Seifert, President

Thank you, Nancy, for your wonderful presentation to the Seattle chapter of the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) this month. Not only were you generous in your ideas and resources, but you also had an infections smile and energy that made what you had to say fun to listen to. You motivated me to take action with some marketing efforts I’ve had “on the burner” for some time and I’m now excited to execute. I appreciated your stories, your presentation style and of course, the wealth of experience you had to share regarding publicity. What a great way to kick off 2008. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to others, in fact, I already have! Thank you Nancy!Debbie Rosemont

Thank you, Nancy for sharing your expertise and your heart with our group of professional organizers and personal assistants last night. What a breath of fresh air! Your presentation was enlightening, fresh, well-prepared, animated and immensely helpful. I am convinced every one of us in the audience came away with new perspectives on approaching the media and on gaining favorable publicity with ease. I have been reading the attached articles you wrote for the ‘Snohomish County Business Journal’ and have found them incredibly informative and appreciate your willingness to share so much of your expertise without expecting anything in return. The BNI motto, ‘Givers Gain’ comes to mind when I think of you!With gratitude and all the best in 2008 to you and your family,

Nancy, thank you so much for speaking to the Seattle Chapter of the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) on January 8, 2008. I think you stayed an extra hour just to answer all the questions we had! Your talk was so invigorating and inspiring to all of us. It gives hope that you don’t need to break the bank to get great press and clients. Your sense of humor and specific tips made the time fly by. I would not only recommend you as a speaker to any group out there, but am excited to implement the many, many ideas that you gave us to be successful. I have already read the tips booklets and am working on a few today. Thank you again for providing hope, inspiration, humor and success stories.Stacey Anderson

A big thank you to Nancy for speaking at the Columbia Tower Club on October 10th, 2007 We had a great turnout and it was obvious with the response and questions that the audience learned a lot about PR for their businesses. I know there will be great stories about their businesses as a result of hearing Nancy’s presentation! I can never hear Nancy too many times, as I learn something new each time.Thanks again,

To all Chamber Executive Directors, You need to have Nancy come and speak at one of your functions ASAP! Her presentation is filled with a bounty of useful information that your members can take away and use to their advantage immediately. Nancy is an enthusiastic speaker with a wealth of useful information that your members need to hear. It is not only useful information for Chamber members but for Chamber Executives as well, because we are all looking for methods to promote our organizations and communities.The day after the presentation I ran into several members and heard nothing but praise for Nancy’s presentation, and several people stated that her topic of discussion was a major reason why they attended the function.Michael Jerrett
Executive Director
Fremont Chamber of Commerce
“I so enjoyed Nancy’s presentation and the wealth of outstanding ideas she provided to our members during our Fremont Chamber of Commerce luncheon meeting. I was particularly impressed by the way her suggestions could aid those seeking local, regional or national attention. In addition I felt our members were able to walk away with sound marketing ideas they could implement immediately. Although her ideas could be used by any size organization, I appreciated that our business owners with few to one employee could take away ideas that would require finding time to implement versus tremendous amounts of marketing dollars. If you need a presenter at your Chamber meeting that you want members dying to ask more questions of, versus dying to get away from, Nancy is a presenter I would strongly encourage you have speak to your membership.”Marko Tubic

“Finding great speakers for the Snoqualmie Valley Chamber of Commerce membership luncheons who know how to engage our business leaders can be challenging sometimes. Your presentation was both engaging and valuable to our members who found your tips on how to get their businesses seen and heard by the local media extremely helpful. I’m looking forward to using the media kit I purchased from you for my own business. When we start looking for speakers for our Snoqualmie Valley Economic Development Summit next year, I’ll be sure to remember you as a great speaker. Thanks for everything Nancy!”Lisa S. Schaffer

Your presentation was timely, as our new club is working on our first attempts at public relations and your suggestions were both helpful and full of good common sense.

“I found your presentation to the Seattle Graphic Artists Guild to be extremely useful. In fact, I think you could have carried the whole event on your own shoulders. Certainly when the group asks for meeting topic suggestions next year, I will be telling them that your take on PR tactics would be a great way to go. I’ve visited you site and added my email address to your monthly mailing. In my next month’s budget, I’m adding a PR section for time and money. And of the later I promise I will be back to take advantage of your wealth of resources. And thank you for being a speaker to our group!”Mark Monlux
