Noel and her editing work are worth EVERY SINGLE PENNY!…read more Once I heard that Noel started Writing Corps, I immediately knew I wanted/needed her to edit my thesis. I know this because, I got to work with her when she was employed by NPS. She went out of her way to help make sure I hit an important milestone with my thesis. She was absolutely amazing by going above and beyond for me. I honestly feel that I may have not completed this program without her. There was no doubt in my mind that I should retain her for the final draft of my thesis. As a Naval Postgraduate student, I highly recommend Noel because she is experienced with NPS preferences. Her method of editing is easily digestible and not intimidating for novice writers. I requested "the works" which is everything, edits, citations, formatting etc. I saved a lot of time and greatly reduced my stress knowing a true professional was taking care of my errors. I could have not crossed the "finish line" without Noel and Writing Corps.

Noel came highly recommended by my master's thesis advisors and for good reason. Her expertise,…read moreorganization, communication, and professionalism put me at ease during an otherwise stressful thesis writing process. She was transparent and clearly explained her process, pricing, and timelines. She has great attention to detail and provided valuable feedback and edits. I strongly recommend working with Noel for any writing project!

I've always wanted to be a writer. Well, maybe not in my college days way back when, but after…read morestruggling with being an introverted real estate agent, I began to think about what I would want to be doing if I quit home sales. I had already been writing a blog and keeping it fairly updated but lacked the self-discipline and follow-through necessary to get and keep readers with consistently providing content. My intentions with writing were good but my focus was not. There were so many days I'd sit in the chair, prepared to write for an hour or two but then suddenly I had far more interesting things to do like laundry, dishes, vacuuming, and cleaning out the garage. I couldn't seem to commit to sitting down and getting the job done. And then I met Milli. I don't know what kind of magic she worked on me, but the suddenly ADD/Can't finish anything me was writing (can I get a drum roll, please?) over 1,000 words each and every day. One Sunday, it was 3,000 words! Why? Because I had someone to hold me accountable. Milli makes sure you follow-through on your goals. She's firm but kind and for some reason, her magic, I mean, methods work. I highly recommend Milli if your goal is to finally write that book you've been putting off, consistently writing for your blog, or any other goal you have with writing or publication. I am 15,000 words into a story I came up with in January but didn't sit down and write until September when I hired Milli to help me stay consistent. Milli is very friendly, approachable, and spent a long time on the phone with me asking me about my goals. There were never any wrong answers and her feedback helped me reframe a struggle I was having with something someone said that gored me to the core. With her reframing of the situation, I was able to create a funny picture in my head that healed me and helped me move on. Milli's feedback is second to none. I think it takes her longer to write the feedback than it does to add more to my story. It is thoughtful, kind, and goes deep. Be prepared to settle in with a cup of something warm and bask in all the glory Milli sends your way. Keeping my promise to myself that I will write a book is a great gift, and Milli is hugely important to making it happen. Thank you for all you have done and given me, Milli!!

I subscribed to this paper for 90 Days (only) during one of their special offers. Folks at the Herald called a week or two after I began getting the paper and asked how I liked the paper. I said it was fine, though I wanted to make sure my subscription would end at 90 Days. The person calling said she would make sure the subscription would end at 90 Days. About two weeks later, someone from the Herald called to see if I'd like to subscribe to the paper! I mentioned that I already receive the paper on their 90 Day special offer, and that I want delivery to end at 90 Days from the date the 90 Day Special Offer began. This person assured me the deliveries would end at the prescribed date. Last week I received an invoice from the Herald billing me for the next month. -- Despite the agreement that my 90 Day Special Offer would end at 90 Days, which was early in November, it appears the Herald fails to honor Their Own commitment and would rather keep delivering the paper even though I don't want it.

For over six years, we relied on Silicon Valley Direct for warehousing and fulfillment of our tech…read moreaccessories business. (We've since closed the business--otherwise, we'd still be working with them.) We shipped both direct-to-consumer through our Shopify site and to wholesale accounts, and orders were consistently shipped promptly and accurately. In all that time, I can't recall a single instance of a customer receiving the wrong item. Our inventory was consistently clean, well-organized, and fully accounted for--never dusty, messy, or missing. The team is excellent: Adriana, our day-to-day contact, was always responsive and helpful, and George, the owner, is ethical, professional, and a genuinely stand-up guy. I recommend Silicon Valley Direct wholeheartedly.

SVD has been a godsend after a challenging and short lived experience with our first 3PL. The sense of security I got from the moment the owner of SVD, George, emailed me back after inquiring about his services has only grown in the few short weeks we've worked together. We were in a bind and needed to set up our account very quickly and George led us with so much care and understanding. From the moment our goods arrived to our first sale being processed only a few days passed. Within a week of partnering we had an extremely viral moment happen with our brand and sales skyrocketed on a Friday and into the weekend. By Monday, George and his team had fulfilled every order. I cannot praise the team, their organization, and their communication enough, as well as George's willingness to strategize and work with us to maximize efficiency. The SVD warehouse is beautiful, clean and organized and the vibes from the team are positive and focused. You can feel the great pride George takes in his operation, and he graciously encourages his prospective clients to tour his facility before signing on, just another vote of confidence. I don't know where we would be without George and the SVD team. We are so grateful to be working together for what already feels like what will become a long and productive relationship.
