Kind Words from My Clients & Customers

The proof is in the pudding, as the saying goes!

As a blog coach, I always approach working with a client as if I was their partner, supporting them on their journey to blogging success.

Check out what they’re saying about our work together and my blogging resources and tools.

"Margaret Turned My Blog Dream Into Reality!"

After feeling confused and overwhelmed by another coach, Margaret’s step-by-step approach helped me create the blog I’d always dreamed of to supplement my retirement income. She answered all my technical questions and was always there when I hit challenges. Now I’m so proud of what I’ve created and confident I can reach my goals with her support!

KATHY – FORWARD AFTER THE PAUSE

"Working with Margaret helped us best position our publication for the type of brand partnerships we seek to attract."

Margaret brings something very rare to blog coaching: the ability to see the industry from both sides. She is a successful blogger and business owner, but she also draws from years of experience in PR (on the other side of evaluating brand partnerships), which gives her a perspective most other coaches simply cannot offer. With Margaret’s guidance, we gained practical clarity on how to position ourselves for brand collaborations: what to prepare, how to present our work, and how to communicate with professionalism. She also gave thoughtful feedback on our site before launch, which led to key changes that made a real difference in how we show up to brands and readers alike.

ERIN – ERINLAFOND.COM

One frustrated late-night Google search led me to Margaret, and boom—four months later, my blog’s making passive income and I actually feel like I know what I’m doing.

Her coaching is gold, her Facebook group is the only one I want to check, and her post-session notes are like little branding love letters to your business. She’s smart, practical, and somehow always one step ahead.

KRYSTIAN – WITH LOVE ME

"I highly recommend Margaret if you're feeling stuck on your blogging journey!"

I was struggling with defining my niche on an existing website. And then I took Margaret’s ‘Refine Your Niche’ workshop and afterward knew exactly how to move forward. Margaret gave clear, actionable steps for each attendee after a review of our blogs – and then followed it up with a detailed, step-by-step workbook! I was impressed by Margaret’s blogging knowledge and her easy, comfortable teaching style. {…} Today I know exactly how to move forward, and that feels pretty amazing.
