My Business Management & Marketing Benefits: 
Having a BC Member business profile published has aided me in many ways including being located by professionals, such as a reporter for the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation). Ms. Mears connected me with this reporter, who interviewed me and eventually published that conversation as part of a documentary on African Americans who had experiences living in Ghana, Africa. She also intervened on my behalf regarding sales of my self-published book about those adventures made available on websites I was not familiar with. She has analyzed my gallery websites and made suggestions to make them more user friendly for customers. I am always amazed at her ability to see a problem and quickly find a solution to that problem. I treasure Ollie’s advice, her business and computer savvy, her creative writing and presentation skills, as well as her partnership in finding ways to market my ventures, which includes adding me to her Online Mentors program, linking her website to my online gallery and promoting me in social networking sites.

My PR Benefit as an Employee ... 
My Employer's Public Relations Benefit:
Becoming a member of Bronzed Connections has been a definite plus for me as well as for the organization I work for. Including a web link to the agency's membership profile on my resume showed my connection with this online public relations resource, which added another dimension to my competence as an employee and as a prospective candidate for promotion in 2010. Ollie’s ability to write creatively yet on point is indeed a gift that continues to help me present the Parks and Recreation program agenda to parents, youth and other associates, globally, while simultaneously marketing my reputation as the new department manager. I like the fact that I can actually leave the whole project to her, and she seems to know exactly the right words that will depict the story behind the scenes in reporting our events even though she was not present. Thanks for your help, Ollie.

Our Management & Public Relations Benefits: 
Burton's Chapel has benefited greatly by having a Bronzed Connections profile, especially since Ms. Ollie Mears promotes our page as often as possible to other folk on the internet. This has given local and out of town people a chance to review our annual calendar and join in our celebrations whenever possible. We would have never thought of building community relations and marketing the church in this way. Her work with our local youth and parents shows her dedication to making sure that fewer children get left behind in school. I have personally encouraged her to continue to use her talents and teaching skills, which she exhibits whenever she's participating in our church services and during her seminar on handling school conflicts given in the church hall. Ms. Mears also provided us management services that successfully turned around an ongoing legal dispute. Her ability to research, analyze, discover important facts and take the steps to solve the problem saved us much financially (assets, legal fees), along with saving us time and further frustration. I, the church board, and congregation indeed count her as a Blessing.
