"Working with Elise could not have come at a better time. Owning two small businesses leaves me with little bandwidth to keep up with blogging in the way I want to. I could not be happier with the work Elise has produced for me. She not only delivered a quality article, she came in with industry suggestions in areas such as SEO and formatting that I would not otherwise have known. As a busy business-owner, working with someone of this level of expertise is priceless!"
