Paulette Hawthorne and I worked together on many occasions over the years where she serviced me and several of our agency clients. A constant professional, she always made me feel top priority. I could always count on a quick response and an accurate finished product. No matter how tight the deadline or how complex the project she tackled it and did it with a smile.

Paulette is an exemplary consultative sales professional. Her abilities to ask questions that uncover her clients' needs and to listen to those needs allow her to present recommendations that keep her advertisers -- and sales managers -- happy. And Paulette's multi-media product knowledge and professionalism build confidence and loyalty among her advertising clients. Any sales organization would benefit from having Paulette on board.
