Success Stories

“Lisa was my coach in my Accelerator's group with Robin Robins. Her leadership helped me learn and apply marketing fundamentals to grow my business. In fact, her help was so beneficial that I won 1st place within my group for results achieved during my first 90 days working with her. Lisa will hold you accountable but also listens and works with you to achieve your goal. I highly recommend working with Lisa as a coach and mentor to kick start your marketing!  Derek Anderson - President & CEO, Biztek Solutions, Inc.”

“Lisa has not only helped take our business to the next level but has also had a transformative effect on my personal growth. Her level of knowledge and expertise in the marketing world is only surpassed by her degree of caring and her personal interest in the success of others. Thank you Lisa for all you do!  Bill Mars, President, Secure-Wan, Inc.”

“I really liked Lisa’s Coaching method and approach to delivering her phone skills workshop to my organization.  She really listened to understand our pain points and tailored her workshop and entire conversation based on what she heard.  This collaborative approach is how I partner with my clients too.  Lisa provided us some simple blueprints, such as a phone script and vocal awareness, to implement, that provides a rapid return-on-investment.  Her workshop enables my team to capture the attention of prospects with a simple “Good morning” and mitigate my risk of losing clients due to inconsistent phone skills. I recommend Lisa to ALL businesses.  Her passion and expertise will motivate your team and your brand to grow!”

“Lisa recently called in to our company meeting to do a Phone Skills workshop, but it was so much more than just that! She made all of us consider our company's brand, as well as personal brands, and focused our attention on how we want to be perceived by our clients. The phone skills portion was wonderful as well, since we often get distracted and don't focus on our clients' impressions when they call our office. Thank you so much for your expertise Lisa, it was an invaluable lesson, and re-focused all our attention on our brand as a whole.”

“Lisa has a deep understanding of branding, marketing and the importance of clear communication and how they impact a company’s image. Her intimate knowledge from two decades’ experience running an IT company, presents a unique offering for MSP owners who are interested in elevating customer service to their clients. Lisa’s phone skills workshop initiated a crucial team discussion (one that we never held before) about how we would like to be perceived by our clients and prospects. I highly recommend any service and support company partner with Lisa.”

“I am happy to recommend Lisa as an expert image consultant in both the personal and corporate realm. She has the rare ability to realize that when you start to think about how you may be perceived by your client, it is just as important as to what you say but how you say it…and that actions speak louder than words. Rebranding goes beyond appearance and a fresh coat of paint, it truly involves all the stakeholders: clients, employees, vendors and prospects. Her area of focus in the IT world is significant, because IT employees touch clients at moments when their need is often great. From how you answer the phone, through scripting, to how you dress, greet people, show empathy on the interpersonal side, to the effective use of logo, name in corporate communication, Lisa covers it all. Especially effective is her ability to communicate her knowledge and experience well when it may be a difficult conversation or simply a in person training is outstanding.  I highly recommend Lisa, give a call you will be glad you did!”

“"Lisa did a tremendous job helping me to understand what works best for me, that fits with my lifestyle, and gives me confidence with my wardrobe. She created lots of "new" outfits from my existing pieces, putting things together that I would have never considered. Lisa took the time to understand me, and what I would be comfortable in, and made me feel great! She also taught me how to make the right selections going forward. It was a lot of fun and a real pleasure to work with Lisa!"”

“ I recently worked with Lisa to do a wardrobe makeover. I’m someone that grew up as the “skinny girl” and has had a really hard time adjusting to an ever changing body and understanding how to dress my new curves that are here to stay. Lisa helped me FINALLY understand my body shape and how to dress to look my best. She is very kind, considerate and encouraging. Her passion and enthusiasm is contagious. You can tell she doesn’t want to just style you, she wants to teach you how to feel confident and happy. I walked away having a good sense of exactly what to look for in shirts, pants, shoes, jackets and even jewelry. Even more, she created a shopping list for me with links to stores (that I could afford!) for pieces that would help fill in the gaps in my wardrobe. Working with Lisa has given me the confidence boost that I needed to walk with my head up again instead of hunching over and covering up. Thank you Lisa!! (The picture shows Tamara in one of the outfits we put together!)”

““Lisa did a workshop for us here at BSMG titled “Insure” Success with How You Dress. It was engaging, interactive and exactly the type of workshop I was looking for. I look forward to other workshops Lisa offers. She was great. She was enthusiastic, sensitive to the group, professional and passionate about helping others position themselves to be the best they can be.””

“*Lisa’s presentation on the Power of Verbal and Nonverbal Communication was engaging and informative. *Thank you for bringing Lisa to us. *Wish the presentation was longer. *Can we invite Lisa back for more awe inspiring presentations? “This is the type of feedback I received after having invited Lisa to AIPSO to present the Power of Verbal and Nonverbal Communication. Lisa spoke of the importance of first impressions and how people perceive us not only by our appearance, but also how we conduct ourselves through oral and written communication. You could tell Lisa did her homework. She researched our company, AIPSO, and came prepared with relevant information and examples so she could connect with her audience. Mission accomplished. Lisa was able to not only connect with her audience but was also able to engage them in an open and energetic dialogue. Working with Lisa prior to coming in for the presentation was fantastic. Lisa is easy to work with on a professional level and I have enjoyed our talks on a personal level. I look forward to our continued professional and personal relationships.”

“ I look forward to a presentation from Lisa, she brings so much energy to the room and really understands how to connect with her audience. My favorite part about her presentations are the colorful handouts; it keeps me engaged and eager to take notes.””

“Lisa created a wonderful, personalized presentation for our Upper School Student Ambassadors. She was engaging, energetic, and truly reached her audience. Our students enjoyed their time with Lisa, and the lessons they learned that afternoon have certainly prepared them for their role as ambassadors of Bay View, as well as strong young women in today’s world.”

“Lisa was a hit! Such a great event filled with energy and excitement. Lisa was prepared with handouts and spoke from her personal experience. She was able to connect with her audience and provide relevant information for the workplace and beyond.” Kristen Regine, AMP-RI, President”

““Working with Lisa was fantastic! Not only did I have fun and enjoy her company, I discovered potential in my own closet I’d never have discovered on my own, learned a few simple tricks to take my appearance from ho-hum to classy, and quickly filled the gaps in my wardrobe on a wildly successful shopping trip. Lisa’s sense of style and what would work for me was spot on. But at the same time she helped push me out of a “safe” zone of neutrals into more fun and fun to wear items. I am so grateful to her and already thinking about winter shopping.””

“I had the pleasure of inviting Lisa to be a key note speaker at the North Shore Technology Council meeting a few months. Lisa’s presence created instant energy and excitement within the room. Her upbeat attitude and approach to presenting the “best image” of ourselves resonated across the group. Lisa stressed the importance of presenting a positive initial impression and how looking, speaking and preparing for all meetings personifies who we are. First impressions are the most important impressions we make and the success of how people perceive us translates into successful or failed business and personal relationships. I hope to have the pleasure to see Lisa and consult with her in my business when needed. I would highly recommend engaging her services.”

“Johnson & Wales University The 4 P’s of Entrepreneurship – What I’ve Learned… Lisa Shorr is a very warm and inspiring individual with a fantastic sense of style and people. When my professor told the class a personal stylist, Lisa Shorr, was coming in to speak, I was so excited and looked her up immediately! She is such an inspiration from what I’ve researched and then from her presentation as well. Not only does Lisa really know her stuff, but she also offered me that ‘ah-ha’ moment. Listening to Lisa speak about her experiences as a stylist made me realize, that was one major aspect to the fashion industry which I loved; helping people feel good, look good, and express themselves through personal style and clothing.”

“I really enjoyed the class you did with us at AIPSO! You were very energetic and confident and made everyone feel comfortable. The 90 minutes went by way too fast. I left inspired with the feeling I can do this. I look forward to seeing you do another class in the near future.””

“Donahue Models & Talent – Andre Wright - Trade Secrets Magazine “Talent Talks” Model – July 2014 ed. “Yemi that was an excellent article and spread. Exciting! Thank you so much for having me be a part of Trade Secrets Magazine. I also enjoyed your article and photo on the roof deck (Styleweek SWIM). It was a surprise to be on the cover!  I didn’t expect that and was in shock. You did a great job along with everyone on the set. I had fun and a great experience, very well rounded shoot.  Thank you again.”

“She is energetic and enthusiastic. She listened to what my needs were and developed a personalized plan to update and improve my wardrobe. She offered practical guidance for fit and style. She is very knowledgeable and I felt like I was in good hands throughout the process! She helped me to see my existing wardrobe in new ways and with new possibilities and identified what was lacking. Now, I feel confident wearing everything in my closet!”

“Thank you so much I feel like a new Woman, a beautiful Woman!!  Over the last few years a lot has gone on in my life and as a result I have gained some weight. I have not felt comfortable in the clothes I have been getting for myself. With your guidance and support doing the hardest thing for me – clothes shopping, I know what to look for now and it feels so Amazing!! You have helped me change my life and words cannot express how grateful I am for you!!  ”

“Spent another few hours with Lisa today and feel great! Have several bags of clothes to donate in my truck and lots of beautiful outfits in my closet to wear to work and to go out in. Since I was in all day today we are going out for dinner locally for Chinese food. What do you think? Lisa helped me accomplish a great deal with my existing wardrobe in a very short time! I can’t wait to wear all the new outfits I didn’t know I had! Thanks so much Lisa!”

“Delight and joy await you when you invite Lisa Shorr to come to your closet and explore! Her obvious talents and excitement about accessories and colors and clothes is infectious. You might even discover that exactly what you have will work in new combinations, and with a variation on accessories. Rediscover the gems that you already have! Get rid of the ones that just don’t work! I had the most amazing three hours with Lisa, and I feel renewed and charged up about my own femininity and beauty. We can be so harsh about our own bodies, and so critical. Lisa is a delightful set of second eyes to set you on the right path!”

“Lisa is passionate about clothes and style, and about helping you find the right look to flatter you. She takes the time to get to know you, your body type, and your style, and she gives helpful, honest feedback about how things look. I can always count on her to tell me when something is a hit, and, more importantly, when it is a miss. I know if Lisa has blessed an outfit, I’m going to look good wherever I go!”

“I had the pleasure of spending three very productive hours with Lisa Shorr during a Closet Clean Up we did together.Before we entered my closet, Lisa took the time to get to know my style, my body type and what I was hoping to accomplish with our session. I started a new job with a much more corporate dress code and I needed to put together looks that were more polished without completely changing my own personal style. Right away she helped me figure out I wasn’t wearing the correct size. She pointed out the clothes that fit best and we weeded out what I kept hanging in my closet but never wore. She also found great pieces I wore only occasionally and showed me how I could work them into my everyday looks. I’m amazed at what I didn’t know I had right in my closet. There were some basics I needed to add and Lisa was great about suggesting a few pieces that could go along way. Lisa has a great eye and gave me ideas I never would have come up with on my own. Before I worked with her I thought of working with a stylist as a luxury. After working with Lisa, I now see it as a practical investment. I showed up at my new job knowing I looked great. I highly recommend working with Lisa – she’s great at what she does.”

“Mary and I had a wonderful afternoon together.  We started with a body and style consult and ended with a very fun and interactive discussion on accessories; what works best for her body type, how to tie scarves and even how to select the proper handbag!  Click here to watch and LISTEN to her video testimonial!”

“A belated thank you for such a wonderful contribution to our web party in March and again on Wednesday! You have such a great way of drawing people in and making them comfortable — and then sensing the right thing to say and recommend!  Wow!  Jenn G. is still bubbling over how you helped her– and she bought new clothes–I can tell she’s felling better about herself!”
