What people are saying about us
Brigitte’s depth of experience in the field of marketing and communications — particularly for the charitable sector — is unmatched. She brings both creativity and discipline to each project. Brigitte has an ability to manage competing demands seamlessly, and deliver a first rate final product every time.
I’ve known Brigitte since the mid-eighties and she’s definitely someone I would recommend with no hesitation, especially for communications and marketing components of major campaigns or public affairs activities. Not only her assessment of a situation is well-thought but she has an incredible capacity to listen and, while offering best options to consider, to make strong recommendations to a client or within an organization. On top of it, Brigitte is a gifted writer, a very creative communication specialist and goes beyond when required…she’ll go the extra-mile if needed to fix things and make the final product the best one around. Having had the opportunity to work again with her three times since our KCI years, I could also add that she’s really smart and fun to work with!
Brigitte was not only a pleasure to work with, but was more like a partner in the endeavour to write a Case for Support for a capital campaign in which I was involved. She was professional, responsive and produced an excellent document which is still being used to raise the necessary funds. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!
Brigitte and I worked together on several projects. She was an outstanding colleague who did a fine job developing videos, brochures, and other printed materials to present our clients’ cases. It was a pleasure to work with her. She made my job easier.
Brigitte is the ultimate Case for Support and Major Gift Fundraising strategic “subject matter expert”. Brigitte is a true professional who willingly takes on the role of mentor/teacher to help you navigate the complex process issues associated with case development and fundraising. She always puts the best interests of the organization first and is prepared to go the distance to ensure the outcomes surpass expectations. Brigitte became my true colleague allowing me to put my best foot forward by making sure I was always well informed and prepared. I would work with her again, any time anywhere.
Brigitte took a mountain of information and differing perspectives and distilled a clear and compelling case. She has the unique ability to find just the right way to convey the emotional elements that are so central to what we do. Brigitte’s writing clearly communicates compassion and vision and inspires the reader. She is truly a pleasure to work with.
CNIB was very fortunate to work with Brigitte on the development of our first Case for Support and its supporting collateral as well as our first Corporate Brochure.
Brigitte worked patiently, diligently and cooperatively with our organization as it underwent a significant process to find our new message, voice and visual identity to help reposition CNIB for the 21st century. She worked in partnership with our staff representatives, stakeholders and our Brand Consultant in the design and development of our new message and voice until both the Brand process and Case materials were synchronized to the current day CNIB and our vision for the future.
Specific to the Case, Brigitte was able to succinctly articulate very complex programs and accurately represent new programs with less definition. As well, Brigitte brought high quality vendors and suppliers to the table who also worked cooperatively with CNIB representatives and within our processes.
In the end, Brigitte delivered a superb product of which we are very proud of and confident with to tell our story and seek the community’s investment in our future.
Brigitte has truly legitimized herself as one of Canada’s top campaign Case writers, combining an exceptional track record of success, expertise and professionalism second to none. One of the last great communications experts in fundraising whose work will serve as the benchmark of excellence for a new generation of industry professionals.
As graphic designers, working with Brigitte is always an enjoyable team experience. Brigitte quickly grasps the big picture, as well as the detail requirements of an assignment. Her writing skills and project management style are clear and focused, and the results are always rewarding.
I have had the pleasure of working with Brigitte on numerous projects in three cities, two countries and for four different organizations over the span of 10 years, and am pleased to say in all cases we have greatly appreciated her pragmatic and creative approach to campaign communications. Always an insistent voice, Brigitte keeps clients on track so that all deadlines can be met.
You go with what you know and trust. Consistently, Brigitte has delivered campaign materials that have met the needs of all staff, volunteers, physicians and researchers. Knowing all audiences and understanding the needs of prospective donors makes Brigitte’s insight invaluable. Keeping us focussed is one of Brigitte’s greatest assets.
