Tom Blank
We have been using Stephani, and her agency Skylark, for our Molly Maid Chicago Advertising Co-op since September 2015. Our results are vastly improved and at a reduced cost from our prior source. Stephani is very innovative and continues to bring new ideas to our Co-op. She is very attentive to us as a client and and our campaign. I highly recommend Stephani and The Skylark Agency.
Kristin Selmeczy
Stephani has been a tremendous business partner for the past 7 years. My business has grown significantly and can be measured by the work that Stephani performs. She stays up to date on the latest technology and how to use it to benefit her clients. She has strong communication skills and communicates at all levels. I highly recommend Stephani and her agency!

Stephani provided an exceptional product in a crunched time frame and I couldn't be happier. Here professional demeanor combined with real world experience made our company rebrand, website development and marketing the absolute best experience. I would recommend her to anyone considering her services.
