Aubrey Armes, Chief Change Officer, Awaken Your Greatness
"Kelly says 'send me what you have and I'm going to make something of it.' She can capture the various expansive, wide-ranging, seemingly disconnected thoughts and ideas, make sense of them, then return them to me in a beautiful comprehensive package that doesn't overwhelm me.
Kelly eliminates the overwhelm & frustration of running a business."
Brad Allen, Founder & President, AditNW
"Kelly/Willow and Oak was exactly what I needed to push forward with my startup business. Kelly was like a business partner, there to make the business successful as if it were her own.The website she set up was top-notch and provided a seamless customer experience. She has a broad range of skills and experience that makes any small business owner so much more productive."
Brittany S, Owner, ZandT Holdings
"Kelly is a GEM! She has revolutionized not only my business, but how I organize my day. She has brought insight, industry wisdom, and great how-to's on keeping my business profitable & productive. Her attention to detail, positive energy, and big ideas are just a few of the reasons I love working with her. That, and, she's just so darn genuine and kind. If you need help organizing and creating a scalable/efficient brand, Kelly is your gal!"
Denise Gabel, Chief Change Agent, The Denise
"It's not often that you find someone who cares about your business the way you do. Kelly does. She is high energy, responsive, and determined to help you grow your business. She's a master at organization, search engines, and putting systems in place. You'll have a great time working with Kelly too. She's the real deal and a great talent."
Danelle Williams, President, Edgeworks Management
"Working with Kelly really clarified the unfamiliar area of marketing to bite-size pieces that I can tackle as a solo practitioner. I don't like the idea of "selling" but she explained how to show up in online spaces in an effective way to meet the people that are looking for what I offer. She is very pleasant and an effective communicator."
Jen Ryan, Founder, Jen Ryan Consulting
"Kelly was the "no fuss, breath of fresh marketing air" that I needed. She is a laser focused, skilled marketer definitely; and has a detailed approach to strategically supporting my marketing efforts which has been so valuable to me as an Entrepreneur who has been challenged with this most necessary part of playing BIG. More than this though, she is a great person. With no judgement, she has encouraged and laughed with me, and stretched me out of my marketing comfort zone. All this having spent just four hours together, and they’ve been four of the most impactful hours I’ve spent on this business journey."
Jennifer Mastor, Mastor Recruiting & Consulting
"Kelly is fierce, intelligent, and gifted with her understanding of how to make the most of who you are and your company. She listens with intent, she guides you to places you never had seen or thought possible for your company, but mostly, TRUST. I have already seen the difference in my company, my followers and mostly, REVENUE. When you put TRUST & REVENUE together you have success. And that is what you get when you hire Willow & Oak Solutions. Could not be more pleased putting my MARKETING in her companies hand."
Laurie Nichols, RLP, CPC, ELI-MP, Succession Planning With Heart
“I can't thank Kelly enough for the strategic focus she brought to marketing my business. I engaged Kelly at a pivotal point in my business. Her expertise and approach to marketing strategy were invaluable to me then and now. So appreciated walking away with clarity on my niche and an actionable plan with a 12 month content plan. I can't say enough about how fantastic she and the entire experience were."
Lisa Downs, Founder & President, Your New Aspect Coaching
“Working with Kelly gave me a concrete social media plan so I know what to focus on for my content marketing, an area that has been a struggle for me. It now seems do-able and not as daunting as I was expecting. Also, by focusing with me on what my ideal clients look like in detail, I now have information I can use for both content creation and to share with my referral partners for who I target for my work.”
Robert V. Boeshaar, Attorney at Law, LL.M., PLLC, Boeshaar Law
"Kelly has helped us effectively promote and enhance our brand with our social media marketing campaign to generate top-of-mind awareness and thought-leadership. We have seen a substantial increase in qualified leads from people who want to engage our services. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to enhance the effectiveness of their marketing."
Sam Alleva, Owner, Evergreen Ink
"I cannot recommend Willow & Oak Business Solutions enough to my fellow business owners and entrepreneurs. After working with Willow & Oak not only do I have a sustainable, comprehensive, and ideal client-driven marketing strategy, I also gained so much clarity in how to structure my business in a far more efficient and effective way for 2021.
Kelly and her team developed a comprehensive and effective marketing strategy that is not overwhelming for me to implement into my daily work as a small business owner. Her services-structuring recommendations will not only help my target clients see clearly the value of the services I offer, but her guidance also helps me in my daily task management. Her strategy will save me countless hours each week and already helped me to build systems within my own team’s workflow that have streamlined my business. I am excited to begin work each day - I am even excited for the marketing tasks that I previously dreaded!
Kelly is an empathetic, innovative expert in marketing and messaging who is not afraid to learn something new to really tackle the challenge at hand. She is absolutely lovely and pleasant to work with, always mindful of not only the challenges business owners face but also of how overwhelming the thought of developing a sustainable marketing strategy can be. Do not waste another month, week, or day with poor messaging that is not reaching your IDEAL client - contact Willow & Oak Business Solutions to really up-level your business!"
Stacia Hofmann, JD, ARM, Founder, Cornerpoint Law
“I originally met Kelly through our involvement in Women Business Owners and was immediately impressed by her marketing, administrative, and business planning skills. I retained Willow & Oak for several of my own business projects. Kelly took the time to understand my preferences and vision and customized administrative and communication solutions that work incredibly well for me. Thank you, Kelly and Willow & Oak!”
Stacy D. Heard, Founder, The Law Office of Stacy D. Heard, PLLC
"I have been working with Willow and Oak for approximately one year after having had a bad experience with a large marketing company. Willow and Oak's founder, Kelly, has been a delight to work with. She is creative, takes action, holds me accountable for my "homework" and has a vast business network for my other needs. Since hiring Kelly, I have been able to focus more on my work. She has and does meet my needs, far exceeding my expectations."
Suzanne Fortune, Suzanne Fortune Realty
"Kelly is more than a great Marketer. She's a business partner who sees the potential and the value in your business and in you, the entrepreneur.
Kelly's content marketing services generate revenue, and a lot of it!
I've had the most successful year of my entire career, largely in part to the work that Kelly and I have done together. Kelly is a 'soft place to land' in the world of entrepreneurship which can be grueling at times. She's fun to work with and provides focus, clarity and the reframes necessary to make wise business decisions. Hiring Kelly is a great investment for long-term, sustainable business growth."
Jill Sammak, PCC, Jill Sammak Coaching and Consulting, LLC
“I am a small business owner, and I've been seeking support to help me develop a marketing strategy that will drive a consistent pipeline of clients. Kelly was referred to me by a colleague. I immediately liked and trusted her after our initial consultation, so I hired her for a strategy session. We spent three hours reviewing my business, talking through why I do the work I do, my values, the type of clients I want to attract, and my vision for my company. Kelly guided me through the discussion. She understood the language of my business, and she made me feel like I had a true partner--something I have been missing. Following our discussion, she translated my thoughts into actionable strategies with clear next steps and with concise, compelling themes and verbiage that will guide my efforts moving forward. I feel more directed and more confident in my marketing efforts as a result of my engagement with Kelly, and I look forward to executing the plan she created on my behalf. Working with Kelly was a wise decision and a sound investment, and I wholeheartedly recommend her.”
Samantha Irwin, Kaizen Business Consulting
“Cannot say enough about how skilled, insightful, and helpful Kelly and her company are! I began with investing in a Strategy Session and gained excellent clarity with messaging that I confidently use today. I moved into having her team do my monthly marketing on social media and it has freed me up to work on other aspects of my business that are my wheelhouse. The support and professionalism are completely on par with my values and expectations (mine are exceeding client expectations for my own clients, and I expect it with those with whom I work). They deliver!”
