How can I say enough about Susie Gordon? Susie has been an incredible asset to me, both professionally and personally. I began my career and entrepreneurial endeavors in West Michigan in 2012. Susie and I started working together from the very beginning. I can truly say that Susie is a big reason for the success and growth of my business. Susie served as a mentor for me and helped introduce me to many people in the community. She has a gift for connection and networking. Susie also helped me to create a name in the community and helped me to grow my brand through public relations, media and networking. She is incredibly connected and seems to know exactly where a person will best fit into their community based on their passions and expertise. Susie has helped me grow as a business woman and as a person. I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you Susie for all you have done for me, Grand Rapids Natural Health and for my new endeavor, Michigan Center for Holistic Medicine. I am forever grateful!

“I have known Susie for about twenty years, and worked with her in the Lawn & Garden Industry several years ago. She is THE BEST networker I know, she has never met a stranger. Her enthusiasm drives her to work tirelessly to get projects executed with flair. I would say passion, energy and networking are her strong suits. Best of all, she is a good friend to have a glass of wine with.”

“In my years working with Susie as my Sales Manager at Women's Lifestyle and our many projects together after that, I have learned so much from Susie. Susie is one of the best in the business at brainstorming and strategizing incredibly effective marketing and PR campaigns. She has a great eye for detail and I always send my articles to her for proofreading before I submit them. She catches things that very experienced editors do not. As a Sales Manager, Susie created a system for Women's Lifestyle that made selling fun and easy. I attribute my success in my sales position to Susie's leadership and insights. She drove much of the revenue for Women's Lifestyle herself and helped me navigate acquiring and maintaining accounts. Susie had quite a few local businesses that relied on her expertise so much that they hired her on as a consultant, and she helped them with a variety of marketing and PR endeavors. Perhaps my favorite part of working with Susie is that it never feels like work. She infuses so much fun and passion into her projects and is truly a joy to work with.”

“I can’t stress enough how much value I gained from working with Susie at Women’s LifeStyle magazine (WLM)–both as a writer and a friend.  She has often served as a first, second, and third set of eyes for proofreading my articles; catching easily overlooked grammar mistakes and providing valuable feedback on how to improve my storytelling. I’ve been able to author many great articles with her help.

 Susie also has an incredible ability to build and maintain relationships with people. Her unmatchable blend of sales experience, communication skills, rhetoric knowledge, and deep caring about her clients’ success put her ahead of the rest. I have seen her juggle many hats to cover the varying responsibilities running a successful publication demands, and I remain impressed at the level of care, professionalism, and wit she gives to all of them.”
