“Went to a fantastic seminar with @JCottin<\/a> founder, BrandTwist. Highly recommend.” –Local Social Media<\/strong>\u200f @LocalSoclMedia<\/a><\/p>\n

B.I.G. Believe, Inspire, Grow sponsored Julie’s “5 Ways Women Can Rock at Branding Workshop” \u00a0in Ridgefield, CT:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“I came away with concrete ideas about the subject matter and how I could help my\u00a0<\/em>business with what I learned from the speaker.”\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

“I would absolutely recommend this speaker.”\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

University of Connecticut event for Connecticut High School Seniors on how to \u00a0create innovative brand experiences. From High School Student Entrepreneur attendees:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The exercise that we did taught me to look at the brands people already love, figure out why, and think of similar aspects to include in our business. Julie also told us some stories from her work at Virgin, stories which gave me confidence in the business our group is developing and a willingness to take risks.”<\/em><\/p>\n

“Julie said not to think of a brand as just a name and a logo or an ad, but rather a promise and relationship between a business and their customers.”<\/em><\/p>\n

“Overall, I think this was a very worthwhile workshop. I didn’t realize how vital the brand was until I looked at companies the way Julie made us. I walked out of that auditorium with a new way to brainstorm and a new point of view of the way the general population interacts with major corporations. It was very interesting and quite honestly, it didn’t feel like an hour long session. It was a great experience.”<\/em><\/p>\n

“I found Julie\u2019s session on brand twisting to be very worthwhile and informative. I definitely appreciated what she was saying – knowing that she had an impressive prior experience with famous companies and people who have paved the way in the business industry.”<\/em><\/p>\n

“I believe it would have been greatly beneficial for everyone [in my class] to dedicate a week to find a problem in our lives and gain some inspiration from all of the media around us.”<\/em><\/p>\n

“Julie and team delivered an engaging and hands-on experience\u2014during a busy holiday week\u2014that met our needs and budget!\u00a0Thank you so much Jean and Julie!”<\/em><\/p>\n
