Not only did Kathy help me to polish my LinkedIn profile, she also demonstrated the many bells and whistles the platform has to offer and how to best leverage them for my coaching practice. Then she taught me how to quickly find and connect with potential clients and collaborators in specific organizations, and to craft compelling messages to them. Within less than a day of sending three such requests - literally during our consulting session, two of my new connections DM'd me to schedule telephone conversations. Simply. Priceless. Work with the Best of the Best, Kathy  Bernard! -- Deb Gaut, Byrnes Mills, MO
