PROJECTS
With lots of years of experience in the different aspects of nonprofit marketing, Laura’s level of expertise can be described as ‘native’. She works hard, is detailed and to-the-point. Add to that a modern approach, great dedication and a sharp focus on results. The Marketing Palette is a one-stop-shop for NGOs looking to improve their marketing.
Laura is a real asset to any company that she works for. She is a problem solver and has an outstanding understanding of automated marketing systems.
When I heard about the Cause Canvas workshop, I said yes immediately because I was shifting my business model to something new, and I needed to get clear on my model and positioning in the market. Doing the work together on the creative platform used for the canvas [Miro], it felt a little daunting at first but I quickly fell in love with using it to brainstorm and put down my ideas, research and resources to help my business. I think what I enjoyed the most was the way the platform was structured, which put me into more of a creative zone, with a big picture view that could be zoomed right down to the little details. I learn best visually and hands-on, and this workshop gave me both. I’ve gotten more clear not only on my messaging but on the whole structure of my business, who needs to be involved and how, and the gaps that need to be addressed.
Working with Laura has been a real pleasure. She has been very helpful in the implementation of Hubspot in our company. Her knowledge, skills and hands-on attitude have allowed us to structure this project and get it done. She has been of very good advice and support, and I would definitely recommend her work as a consultant.
I had the opportunity to use the Cause Canvas at an important stage of redefining CoPartnerUp, the platform where changemakers from around the world come together to create partnerships for change. I needed clarity on how to engage the various stakeholders, making sure not to exclude anyone. The process was intense, but with Laura’s guidance I was able to achieve the clarity I was looking for and figure out how to develop a content plan that would share our mission and co-create our vision with those who will join us. I am confident that with this clarity we will be able to reach those who wish to join our community and create meaningful partnerships. I recommend the Cause Canvas to anyone looking for a comprehensive tool and outstanding guidance to help them better define to whom and how to communicate clearly and effectively to create lasting positive impact.
I had the pleasure of working with Laura on a variety of projects over a 7 month period. From a marketing perspective, Laura had the Midas touch and excelled in everything she worked on, delivering exceptional quality of work, on time and in budget. But what really sets Laura apart is her professionalism, her can-do attitude, her passion for what she does, and above all, her work ethic. I have no hesitation in recommending Laura to consult at strategic and operational level for marketing projects.
As a direct result of Laura’s hard work we now have a brand new mobile-responsive website which includes an intuitive and user-friendly interface and blog, a more solid presence on social media and country-wide recognition with all large education foundations. Moreover, Laura proved to be particularly gifted in the development of marketing materials tailored to our diverse target audience.
Thank you for the great coverage of our event (EIT Awards Ceremony 2013) on our social media channels. We have been getting some really good feedback – everyone was really impressed and I thought you’d like to know that our keynote speaker, Naveen Jain, mentioned this to us specifically when we met him after the event!
I’ve been working with Laura to strengthen our public narrative and build content that reflects who we are as an organization, along with the impact we’re having. Laura’s wisdom, thoughtfulness, and creativity are at the heart of our storytelling strategy and I am so grateful to her. In particular, I’ve really appreciated Laura’s methodical process of understanding our audience members through empathy and rigorous research; identifying important content potential; and thinking creatively about the stories we can tell in a way that upholds dignity. Since working with Laura this year our social media following and engagement has doubled, and we have been contacted by potential partners and supporters who did not know of us before. That said, her strategy is not just about short-term gains but about investing in a long-term narrative shift that our sector so desperately needs. I wholeheartedly recommend Laura, it continues to be a privilege to work with her!
Laura is a game changer! She has taken our website to a higher level than we could have imagined. Her understanding of our organizational purpose and goals led to making strategic, thoughtful changes to our web presence that has completely transformed the way we tell our story. Her approach to website strategy combines brand alignment, clarity, and inspiration— all with our stakeholders and communities at the center. We’ve secured new partnerships, donors, and clients as a result.
Over the past year, I’ve had the privilege of working closely with Laura on several key initiatives: persona development, lead analysis, research projects that provided valuable insights for marketing tactics and messaging, HubSpot setup, and a comprehensive website audit. Laura is a truly exceptional marketing professional. She combines strategic thinking with meticulous execution, ensuring every project delivers impactful results. Her work consistently brought clarity and direction to our efforts, and her proactive, can-do attitude made her a cornerstone of our success. Beyond her expertise, Laura is a pleasure to work with—always responsive, supportive, and willing to go the extra mile. I highly recommend her to any organization seeking a talented, hardworking, and insightful marketing expert.
Laura is a highly-skilled, super motivated, professional and well-rounded marketing consultant. Over the course of two months, she supported our team in the implementation of Hubspot and more specifically consulting how to best bridge our marketing and sales activities and advising us on best practices across our marketing campaigns. Laura comes highly recommended at both a strategic and operational level and can be counted on to get a project done timely and exceeding expectations. On top of everything, she is an absolute delight to work with, positive and efficient – she isn’t afraid to delve into projects, ask questions and push her clients to be better and achieve more. I look forward to working with her again!
We worked with Laura to streamline Azkua’s marketing processes and define our customer journey. We now have a well functioning marketing automation system that ensures all relevant data goes through one channel. She also helped us identify our client persona and designed our website wireframes, so we can ensure that all our communications address the client base we want to reach. Laura brings a wealth of knowledge with her and her maximising nature will make sure you deliver on the deadlines agreed at the outset.
I had the opportunity to invite Laura as a guest speaker for one event. The attention to detail, her ability to connect with the attendees and her passion for ethical marketing left our students eager to learn more and equipped with the skills and resources they needed to start applying what they learned in their organizations. Laura goes beyond to ensure what she has to share reaches people!
Laura is a professional digital marketer, covering aspects from strategy to online campaigns and web analytics reporting. She developed the digital marketing strategy and managed SNV’s website refresh from redesign recommendations all the way through to implementation with the web agency. The website revamp together with the online campaigns led to a steady increase in visits and engagement. Laura combines strategic insight with thoroughness and an eye for detail. She has a strong sense of ownership and responsibility.
Laura guided a group of Indigenous women throughout the Cause Canvas model, and I am honoured to have been included in this opportunity. Her guidance was very loving, encouraging, supportive and helpful. Her ability to adapt and make requested changes to fit the learning needs of the group was excellent. Her openness to receive feedback and guidance from participants was inspiring to see. The Cause Canvas model itself centers on the higher goal, and she always reminded us to connect back to the higher goal to tie everything together, as it’s all interconnected. I look forward to building off of this solid foundation and continue being a part of greater change for future generations. Ekosani Laura for your guidance and support.
Laura is one in a million. I have never encountered a person with her unique mix of high-level strategic thinking and brilliantly detail-oriented executive skills. Laura is creative, determined and enthusiastic as well as a great sparring partner whose solid and thoughtful advice is to be taken seriously. She can navigate complex situations and deliver on a project against all odds. I always trusted her to pick up and enrich the brief on the fly and make things happen. Usually exceeding expectations, she was ahead of the curve in bringing innovation when the organization most required it. During her time at Akvo, Laura improved our marketing efforts enormously. Thanks to her, we’ve been able to roll out consistent marketing campaigns and generate qualified leads like never before. She used her creativity, intelligence, abundance of energy and entrepreneurial drive to make a marketing strategy that worked, brought results and hit the bottom line.
We’ve had the pleasure of working with Laura to set up our new CRM and email marketing system. Laura is a true expert in her field and easily transported us out of the ”dark ages” to a place where we can now easily measure our client engagement, create tailor-made automations for specific needs, and welcome new joiners to our tribe. Laura reviewed and tested several systems before recommending the one that would suit our needs, budget and future aspirations the very best. She also helped us clarify and sequence our customer journey, generate plenty of ideas for our content strategy, and from there develop the wireframes for our website. Professional, detailed, action oriented and quickly responding to our questions and needs Laura is a true asset.
Laura is the manifestation of “Integrity”! Everything she does is absolutely the top quality that one can expect. She always – always – goes the extra mile to provide the best service for her clients. She is very knowledgeable in the domain of purpose-driven marketing and I am extremely grateful to have had her as my marketing advisor. I highly recommend Laura for any purpose-driven enterprise.
