Denise Skelton, GM of Bellingham Training & Tennis
I was asked to take over a fundraiser my company did for years. I met with Susan for guidance. She came with clear data on what works and doesn’t work based on the goals we wanted from that event. I implemented her plan, and we raised the most money than ever before. Thank you, Susan!

Denise Skelton, General Manager of Bellingham Training & Tennis
In 2024, I was retiring from business ownership of 26 years (Riverside Health Club) into middle management. This was a big change for me that brought some struggles. I met with Susan for guidance. Her strategic approach was a game changer for me. It came with clear precise steps, encouragement, and care.
Melissa S., Board Chair of North Central Whidbey Farmers Markets
Susan was great to work with on our year-end appeal. She helped narrow the focus and provide a clear ask for our donors to respond to. Thank you, Susan, for helping us be better at fundraising!
Tom Davis, President of Youth Dynamics
I had the privilege of working alongside Susan for many years. She is very experienced, professional, and knowledgeable. Our revenue increased significantly with her expertise and guidance. Susan genuinely cares about people and is committed to helping others achieve their goals.

“Susan is fantastic to work with. She understands what organizations need to reach their fundraising goals. The organization, structure, and first-hand knowledge that Susan brings helps to truly bring fundraising out of the box and to the next level.”
