The Sales Alliance
"My sales & marketing consulting business was thriving, but not having a web site made it difficult to grow into new areas. I knew I didn't want to pay the high rates of an agency, but I also didn't want to put my company's image in the hands of a web developer who had no corporate experience. I work for large clients with extensive web sites of their own, so I'm concerned about the impression my site makes on them.

The fact that Andrea created and managed revenue-generating corporate web sites set me at ease. If a several-billion-dollar company had that much confidence in her, I knew I certainly could.

Throughout the process Andrea made it easy for me. She mapped out a structure for the information and made it clear to me what content I needed to make the site complete. We discussed the kinds of clients I am targeting and how to appeal to them. She kept the design simple and professional, allowing my content to take center stage. When the site was finished she worked with me on ideas to promote my company on the web.

I have received numerous positive comments on my web site from both clients and prospects. I am pleased to recommend Minerva Solutions to any company seeking a professional web site. Most importantly, I look forward to continue to work with Andrea as my consulting business continues to grow."

"We put a lot of thought into the type of person we wanted to create our web site. We have a sophisticated, well-educated customer base and it was essential that we have a highly professional site that appeals to an executive audience. We chose Minerva Solutions because of Andrea's corporate background and experience in communicating with high-level customers.

We could have hired anyone who knows how to use web tools, but we chose Andrea because we knew she'd make sure our site communicated the right image and messages. She worked quickly and was responsive to all our needs, making us feel at all times like we were her top priority."

"Minerva Solutions recommended and implemented a communications strategy for us that has resulted in my becoming a monthly columnist for a major industry publication. Their writing services have helped establish our firm as a thought leader in its field.

They were able to design our site with basically no input from us. We handed them unpolished content, which they edited or rewrote as needed. They figured out what categories we needed on the web site, and what content was needed for each category.

One of my professional colleagues complimented me on my web site. I hadn't even asked for any feedback; but she wanted to tell me what she thought about it. She said it was clean and professional, and exactly what a consulting company's web site should be. She's been directing other people to the site so they can see what she considers an example of a good site. "

"We hired Andrea to write several pieces of promotional literature for Marathon as well as a technical white paper. She hit the ground running and was able to gather the information, get up to speed on the products, and write the pieces quickly and independently. Andrea was able to take the Marathon customer success stories to a level where they were engaging and compelling, all while maintaining a firm grip on the technology. She brings years of experience as a communicator, both in print and on the web."

"Andrea is extremely responsive to ideas and actions, with excellent follow-through. She is able to pick up something without a great deal to go on and turn it into a functioning, executed accomplishment... She is able to use the web to capitalize and accentuate marketing work that goes on in other areas... In addition, I found Andrea was always thinking of and pushing for new ways to use the web to positively impact our business."

"We hired Minerva to create an on-line store as part of our pre-existing website. Volunteers have been used in the past to design the larger website, but we found the complexity of accepting credit cards over the net, etc. to be too much for their limited expertise and time.
