TESTIMONIALS:
“Jill is amazing! She helped me write content for a one-pager to help promote our organization. Then, I reached back out to her a few months later and she helped me finalize a big ask letter for a donation. She's full of knowledge and so great to work with. I highly recommend her skills and experience!”
-- Jamie L. King, Executive Director, Hospital Hospitality House of Saginaw
“Jill is an outstanding professional in development, fundraising and marketing. I had the pleasure of working with her for over a year. She helped Media Projects Inc. launch a major outreach campaign to multiple markets for IN HER SHOES, a film that puts a human face on women in the criminal justice system. Jill researched meticulously, found the right contacts and crafted a number of effective emails.
She never stopped thinking creatively in finding new organizations and new contacts. She is an excellent writer, researcher and strategist who is constantly reading and researching. She also crafted effective letters for our annual fundraising campaign. Jill truly cares about the organizations she works with and still stays in touch with us sending us ideas and suggestions for contacts.
I highly recommend Jill Salter if you want to succeed and work with the ultimate professional.”
-- Cynthia Salzman Mondell, Documentary Filmmaker and Director at Media Projects Inc.
