Robin is clearly passionate about what she does and is ‘in her element’ when she has her training and support hat on.

I can not say enough good things about the partnership experience I have had with Robin Samora over the past 10 years. Her professionalism, communication and business oriented mindset was key to many of our successes. Whatever her clients goals are - she creates a strategy to achieve such goals and works tirelessly to implement it. I have been working with Robin for 10 years, but my company has partnered with her for over 20 years! Needless to say - you are great hands with Robin and she has my 5 star recommendation!

For us attorneys, in law school, we are taught the core principals of law, across various areas of law. We are also taught what we need to do in order to effectively practice law. What law school often does not teach us, is how to market ourselves and how to market our services.. something that can be extremely important for many attorneys, particularly for those of us running our own practice, or working with a firm.Over the past 2-3 months, I have been working closely with Robin to do exactly this, and I cannot recommend her enough. She is thoughtful, thorough, kind, and passionate. She also really does her research to make sure her marketing action plan is tailored specifically to your particular business.. taking into account all aspects of your individual goals, circumstances, etc. On top of all that, it is evident that she genuinely cares.. and you know she is genuinely rooting for you to succeed.If you are a small business owner, or someone looking to market/expand your business, you can be confident you are in good hands with Robin.
Griffin R.
My husband and I had the pleasure of taking Robin’s marketing class. She is an expert in the field and we learned a lot from her. Robin created a detailed and thoughtful marketing plan for our moving company. We can’t wait to implement her recommendations. Thank you Robin!
Etana S.
I have had the privilege of working with Robin for the past couple of months for a Marketing Plan for both myself, and the law firm I work with. She has been so incredibly thorough, thoughtful, flexible, and enjoyable to work with throughout this process. To be honest, I am not great at marketing. I can sell myself in front of people any day of the week, but when it comes to websites, social media postings, press releases, I am totally lost. Robin came up with a comprehensive marketing plan on how to best spend my time marketing to get the most return, and how to implement the action items in the marketing plan. I would recommend Robin to ANYONE I know who is looking to take charge of their business and their business marketing!
Katelin R.
Working with Robin is a great pleasure, she is wonderful at what she does. Highly recommended.
Joe A.
We have worked with Robin on a variety of branding and marketing projects over the years (repeat clients!) and appreciate her expertise and energy. She asks the right questions and if they are tough, she makes us answer them to help get to the core of our marketing goals. She's diligent about research and, even when we don't have an active project with her, she'll often forward us useful news articles or resources as she keeps her eyes trained on the latest trends and tools. Huge plus in our book is Robin's overall positive vibe and sense of humor. Thanks for your ongoing help Robin!

Robin presented the confusing world of Social Media and Digital Marketing (confusing to me, anyway!) in a way I could grasp the concepts and tools for immediate implementation and results! Knowing I only leveraged 1% of her knowledge and skills, I see us continuing to work together well into the future. Thank you, Robin!!!!
James D.
We've been working on our own to develop a social media presence and to spread our reach. We get lots of great referrals, but not much comes in as a cold call. We took Robin's class to understand the next steps, and how to up our game. Her clear format, simple steps, and creative enthusiasm were just the boost we needed to really operationalize a marketing plan. Her step-by-step plan is a great roadmap to making sure we get connected with new clients. We enjoyed every meeting and recommend Robin and her team heartily.
Andrew W.

Robin is a small business marketing expert, and creative beyond measure. We learned so much from her marketing course and at the same time developed valuable resources to help standardize our language, create consistent messaging across channels, and build marketing goals. Her insights were ultra customized and went far beyond the value of the course. I would highly recommend Robin and her marketing course to any small business wanting to grow their marketing function in a smart and prioritized way. We walked away not only with the knowledge we gained through the training but also a clear and easy-to-follow action plan for the next 2+ years.
Leanne R.
Robin's Marketing course, and working with her one on one has been transformative for my business, and we're at the tip of the iceberg! She is a wealth of knowledge and ideas! Working with her has been very inspiring for our team and have a treasure trove of ideas from which to launch new marketing initiatives for the next 18 months and beyond! We have learned so much about how to take ideas and work them into actionable steps, as well as how to improve our competitive advantage in today's saturated world. We have a clear vision of how to stand out and have already seen the improvements - and our clients and industry peers are noticing that our message stands apart! Thank you Robin, for helping us communicate what and why we do what we do and HOW it stands apart from the rest.

Boston University was lucky enough to have Robin (a proud alumna!) offer her presentation "How to Write a Marketing Plan (for Entrepreneurs) for our alumni and students, and it was a tremendous success! Robins advice was straightforward and clear, with a specific list of easy-to-follow action items. Her presentation style is great - relaxed and casual but well-prepared and specific on details. I would highly recommend Robin to anyone looking for a marketing & PR pro or someone who can speak on the subject. Thanks Robin!

Robin gave a FREE webinar to SCORE Boston clients. They loved it! As small business owners, Robin was able to provide them with information on 7 Ways to Stretch Your Marketing Budget. Our clients loved the information she provided and SCORE Massachusetts appreciates her giving of her time to help small business entrepreneurs.
Teresa L.
It is an uplifting and reassuring experience to work with Robin! She helps me focus, asks the questions I need to be asked, and she really LISTENS. A lot of times I feel like consulting isn't helpful when they first haven't listend to me, but Robin is such a great listener and I feel seen and heard. Her feedback is better because of this, because she truly listens to understand her client. I love her very concrete next-step advice, and her enouraging persona! Thank you Robin - I look forward to our next session! - Megan and Jonathan

Karen K.
The first time I met Robin was at a Venture Café, a place where like-minded innovators meet and connect. Robin was giving a marketing seminar about how to advertise and get free publicity. The information was extremely useful to me but what really engaged me was her bright and energetic delivery while she was onstage. She spoke with clarity about useful guidelines to get your name out at no cost. Afterwards, I approached her and asked if she would be interested in working with my own startup, Physis Investment. Back then, at Physis, we were making progress in a lot of areas but still lacked a lot of needed expertise in marketing. We didn’t know how to create a press kit, needed a stronger sense of storytelling, had attempted to draft a marketing plan, and had just started trying to connect with newspapers. Robin has since helped us with all of that, taking us to the next level and setting us up for future success.Through all her hard work and guidance, she has been not just an advisor but a mentor for me and our entire team at Physis. Her outstanding knowledge of P.R. & Marketing world makes her an essential resource. She really understood the needs of the company and moreover our unique skill set and helped us to get the best out of ourselves. I’d strongly recommend Robin and her expertise to anyone, I can’t wait to work together again!
Stefania Di B.
Robin was amazing to work with. She really provided hands on support to me and my team while we developed our Public Relations plan and our Press Kit. Robin helped us design a strategy to engage with journalists and to find clients on social media. This strategy is already providing us with measurable results. In our outreach, Robin reviewed and improved on our digital press kit to improve our storytelling abilities and better sell our product. I am very happy with the investment made in working with Robin. She really is very helpful and very knowledgeable. I would recommend contacting her today.
