MARKETING CONSULTING WORKS…

“I met marketing consultant Charlene St. Jean (Purple Diamond) at Capone’s when she attended a Peabody Area Chamber of Commerce business luncheon event. She had recently done a talk on Social Media Marketing for the chamber and I was impressed with her extensive knowledge and passion for helping to market local businesses. We hired her February 2017 to do an overall marketing analysis of our restaurant and to give us suggestions of where we could improve. We liked what she had to say and signed up for her monthly consulting services and expanded to having her manage our Social Media pages on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter in 2018. She gave us the consistency that we were missing and instantly improved our stats and profits. We have had her meet our staff and give them an overall Social Media Training Session and we continue to enjoy working with her every month. She is knowledgeable, hardworking, fairly priced, and always gives extra value. She truly cares about our restaurant and has helped us to successfully launch new products and to promote our 25th anniversary. We highly recommend her services.”- Christopher Pescione, Capone’s Restaurant and Lounge, Peabody, MA

I’m so grateful she was referred to me and I in turn have confidently referred Charlene to other business owners I know.

“Charlene is exceptional at helping one of my businesses in the area of marketing, and especially at enlightening me in the area of social media marketing. I never had a need for this until becoming a partner in a business where it was essential in expanding our customer base and providing an experience to our existing clients that is not only necessary today, but expected of any such business. Charlene is very motivated and did an excellent job as our marketing consultant and our marketing coach, teaching me and assisting me through the process.  I would highly recommend Charlene to any business. Her contribution was invaluable to me.”Bob Gancarz, Independent Software Engineer and partner at Show Baseball & Softball Academy, Lawrence, MA.
