Désirée is one of the most conscientious, communicative and fair professionals I’ve worked with. She knows what she says she knows, and knows how to swiftly find, thoughtfully build and deftly manage a team of experts who provide the skills she doesn’t know. Now, if only I could clone her 10 times over!

Desiree has worked with me to develop the goals and objectives for my company’s premier annual event and to regain a solid footing for the conference parent company after Hurricane Katrina. In both circumstances I found Desiree to be insightful, knowledgeable and very professional. I highly recommend her for any company seeking a business development strategy.

Of the total evaluation forms collected, everyone rated your program and your speaking either excellent or good. We got comments including, “As a business owner myself, this workshop was very useful; using live examples was a plus.” I can’t thank you enough for agreeing to speak to our group. I’m sure we will return to New Orleans in a few years, I hope we will be able to work together again.

Our organization works with Désirée to deliver training because she makes it easy to implement and I know our members will be satisfied and get quality content.  Every event in which she speaks results in a packed house, her reputation draws a crowd and our organization is the better for it!

I was scheduled for a phone consult for Marketing Counseling at VentureWalk with Desiree. I am normally a person who prefers face-to-face appointments and was somewhat skeptical. I thought I wouldn’t get the full effect of a face to face encounter. However, it was totally the opposite. I was very pleased with my telephone appointment. I was quite impressed with the feedback after my assessment. Desiree gave me ideas on packaging my products, how to get new customers and how to keep them coming back. It was as though I was sitting directly in front of her getting clear and concise information to market my business in ways in which I hadn’t even imagined. Thanks to VentureWalk I am now working on several marketing strategies to put in place. I’m certainly looking forward to my next marketing session.

I’ve been lucky to sit in on several of Desiree’s Marketing training classes but I never imagined how insightful it would be to have a one-on-one training with her. After completing an assessment before our session she was very prepared to discuss Phat Pheet’s personal needs and challenges. Desiree gave me an overwhelming amount of great information to guide the proper direction to grow the business. She isn’t selfish with her time, she allowed the time to run over to make sure that I received all the information that I needed. I look forward to putting the advice that I received from her into action.

VentureWalk has made the difference for me and my company. I was finally able to communicate a very complex idea, make it easier to understand and help others to appreciate why it matters and why it’s a viable business. Most importantly, working with Désirée has helped me to run and market my business better. I would recommend this service to anyone that needs to communicate with clients in a way that’s effective.

Désirée is the go-to person for small business owners. Her expertise, when followed, brings results. Her sound advice helped me create a steady monthly income, increased my productivity through better task management, and allowed me to return to loving business rather than enduring it. I highly recommend Désirée as a business consultant and coach.

Désirée and the team at VentureWalk are true professionals; it truly has been a pleasure having her work with me. After 20 years of operating my business, I’ve not worked with professionals that were good at what they do until I met Désirée. My business would not have made as great an impact without her. One single email message she developed generated over $7,000 in sales. Now, I am anticipating being at least at Pre-Hurricane Katrina sales levels within a year contrary to the projected 3-4 years for other businesses dependent on the New Orleans tourist industry.

Désirée has been an invaluable resource for my business. She has worked with me on improving my brand and marketing strategies. I would recommend Désirée to any small business that is looking for someone who is an expert in this field and would like to get out-of- the-box results. Désirée genuinely cares about her clients and the quality of her work is superb!
