Recent Client: Gap Management
For years, I've tried to convey the benefits of my work to potential clients. Despite decades in marketing and communications, I struggled to tell my own story. Common Craft's short video changed that—now people understand.
- Francis Waller
From a presentation consulting client:
I came to Lee feeling stuck. I was working on a presentation and struggling to explain my work in a brief and engaging way. Lee listened carefully to my experience, goals, and ideas for the presentation and asked multiple questions. Within a few days, he came back to me with clear talking points that helped me see new opportunities to frame the ideas. Over time, we worked together to turn those talking points into visuals for my presentation. Now, when someone asks, I can explain my work with a few short sentences and even draw a quick diagram on the back of a napkin. Our time together was well with it!
