ALLISON BLISS CONSULTING

Allison Bliss offers Marketing & Communications Consulting to corporations requiring an outsourced marketing department, creating strategies and promotional materials that aren’t just visually appealing, but actually bring you business. Marketing Coaching rescues business owners who are completely bogged down with their day-to-day survival, and often lack the knowledge or perspective needed to reach their target market: Resources, Websites, Optimizing, Promotional Material, Connections, Sales training, & total support.

ALLISON BLISS

Having moved 20 times by age 20, Allison learned early what makes people tick and how to influence a “target market.” Specifically, she knows how to listen to what people have to say, to quickly figure out their “hot buttons,” and what makes them react (positively and negatively). She brings to her marketing consultations a sense of appreciation for all types of people, from all kinds of backgrounds. She has developed a knack for making instant connections with strangers, and for prompting a desired response for her clients. This unique knowledge is what motivates and defines her company.
