TESTIMONIALS
What people are saying
Natasha M. - Entrepreneur, Speaker & Author
"I was so impressed with Marina's presentation. Not only the very interesting content and strategy but also her impeccable presentation style. She knows her stuff and is captivating. I now want everything she and her company offers and she didn't even "sell" during the session. Brava!"
Kate H. - Entrepreneur & Canadian Wine Queen
"Marina helped me clearly identify who I am and what I represent. Clarification of not only who I am, but how I want to present myself to others. By taking a deeper look in who I am I can hold myself accountable to not only scale my business but drive my life forward in all the ways that matter to me."
Carolene M. - Experience Strategist

No matter where you are or what you're doing, Marina inspires trust. Meeting her has been life-changing."
Adriana V. - Advisor
"I was delighted to participate in Marina’s conference. I'm a well informed person that is averse to wasting my time and ended up captivated by the way Marina wove the facts and strategies with her own experience and personal story. I would sign up again tomorrow. Thank you Marina."
David A. - Social Entrepreneur & Athlete
"Working with Marina allowed me to take time out of a busy schedule to reflect on my work and impact as an individual as opposed to always putting my organization first. My personal experience and insights are what drive me, and consequently may inspire others to join the cause."
Hege B. - Design Entrepreneur
"I thought I knew something about personal branding. I wasn't prepared to have my soul turned inside out. I discovered that I cannot tell the story about who I am unless I am completely honest with myself first. The satisfaction of noticing my life has already changed dramatically is even sweeter. I have no doubt this work I did with Marina has opened doors I never even imagined for me, both personally and professionally."
Hugo B. - EOS/Business Coach
"Marina knows what it takes to create a personal brand. I enjoyed every step of the insightful process and I am looking forward to a lasting and prosperous relationship."
Brent W. - Entrepreneur & Marketing Expert
"I was very cynical about personal branding before the workshop - but Marina converted me!"
Michele H. - Entrepreneur & Business Coach
"I immersed myself in learning about Personal Branding from fellow Canadian EOer and friend Marina Byezhanova. Marina demystifies Personal Branding through thoughtful exercises and provides a clear roadmap to creating and building your own personal brand. Marina has worked with many leaders globally, and is an accomplished speaker and servant leader to EO."
Matt H. - Entrepreneur, Author & Marketer
"I was skeptical. As a high-level strategic marketer, I had heard a lot on 'personal branding' and had enough of the fluff. Marina’s talk caught me off guard, however. Aside from delivering content with real substance that can actually help entrepreneurs or leaders, Marina was an excellent speaker with an ability to capture an audience. I was the hardest audience member to 'buy in' – but I did. I invited her to be a guest speaker to my thriving community of CMOs. Thank you again, Marina."
John W. - Marketing Leader
"Last week I heard Marina speaking to a group about personal branding and I learned a LOT - enough to get me past some lingering discomfort with the phrase 'personal branding.' Managing your reputation is important, and doing it well will help you, and what I loved in Marina's presentation was the focus on thinking about core questions about what you want to do. Great topic as you think about where you want your professional life to take you."
