What people are saying about us
I have worked with Brigitte several times over the years. What I appreciate most about the way she works is her strategic and creative approach to my projects. It really helps that she too is a fundraiser so I didn’t have to explain the fundamentals because she understood my marketing needs and how to write for the donor audience.
Creative, conscientious, and on-time are just three of Brigitte Mertling’s attributes as a writer, editor, and project manager. Her Case work for me as a client has been excellent. Her reputation in the field is outstanding.
Brigitte is the best in this profession for conveying the right tone, passion and sense of urgency that is meaningful for creating beneficial outcomes that make a difference philanthropically.
I have worked with Brigitte Mertling on a number of projects over the past 20 years and would not hesitate to call her one of the finest writers in philanthropy today. Brigitte can take the most complex subject and spell it out in an easy flowing manner for charitable causes. She is the consummate professional in her approach to clients and handling of their projects. Brigitte is one of the most ethical professionals I have ever worked with, and her ability to interpret and articulate a client’s Case for Support is second to none. Add to that her intimate knowledge of all aspects of fundraising makes for a communications/fundraising colleague who is hard to beat.
Working with Brigitte has been an enlightening and refreshing experience for me and the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. Brigitte takes the time to collect all the relevant information and then either writes the perfect copy for my needs or provides great strategic insight into one of our many ongoing projects.
I have had the pleasure of working with Brigitte for approximately three years and have yet to find anyone as thorough or interested in getting to know my business and understand it. Every time I call, Brigitte is there — ready, willing and able to help and I have really come to depend on her insight over these last few years.
I always look forward to working with Brigitte on a project. She is extremely knowledgeable about all things photographic and has a visual sense that translates so well the needs of the fundraising market. Because of her creative vision and clear direction she is able to assist me in getting the very best out of a shoot with subjects from toddlers to seniors.
I have known Brigitte for over 25 years and have worked with her in a variety of capacities. She has helped directly with Case Statements, Direct Response, Newsletters and Annual Reports, in addition to other fundraising/communications/marketing materials. Brigitte is an excellent writer and is able to capture key messages in a thoughtful and strategic way. I have always enjoyed our working relationship and know that I can count on her for on time delivery of an excellent product every time.
I have had the opportunity to work with ImageScript for the last 3 years on a variety of projects. The depth of their experience in the Industry gave me comfort that they would understand and meet my needs. They provided case statement writing and feasibility study support. I can always rely on top quality work, presented in a very thoughtful and timely way.
Brigitte Mertling writes with a winning combination of flare, insight and precision. If she was asked to re-write the tax code, it would be a best seller. She has an uncanny ability to tune into the individual culture of the organization she is representing, and then, assume their “voice” in her writing. Her experience, wisdom and dedication are a true salve for any organization going through change.
