Bio
Kelsey Lee
I've interviewed countless consultants over the years, but hired Lori on the spot. I was referred to Lori from Christopher Lowe, General Manager of The Real Estate Agent Magazine of Greater Philadelphia. When we scheduled our initial meeting, I was 2 weeks out from a large event I had been organizing for my company, The Philadelphia Spin Coalition (SpinCo). Little did I know, that meeting would turn from networking to bringing Lori onto our team. The day before our scheduled meeting, we lost our event venue. She not only helped flip an entire event in 2 weeks, but volunteered on-site, at what would be our most successful fundraiser to date! We continue working with Lori because of her work ethic and flexibility because as a new business, funds are tight. Turns out, we not only made back every dollar, but tripled our revenue for the year! Lori provided us with the foundation we desperately needed and put in place systems we will never stop using. I'm so blessed to be working with Lori and recommend her to business owners who place priority on giving back and is open to new ideas. When you find the good ones, hold on to them tight. People like Lori are far and few between.

Lori has outstanding project – management skills. She really help me clarify my goals and objectives, and set up clear and tenable goals and action plans. I would highly recommend her in this capacity. As well, she is incredibly personable and very good listener.
