Marketing & Coaching Reviews

Client, Employer & Peer Testimonials

Over the years, I've been gathering comments from marketing and coaching clients, employers, and peers. The vast majority of these testimonies are unsolicited and were sent during the course of everyday communication. Receiving positive feedback without requesting it is the most authentic, meaningful kind of recommendation to me. 

Here's an unedited selection of my favorite 35+ reviews, tagged by category: marketing, coaching, leadership, and character. Many testimonies belong to more than one category. Some entries represent a collection of messages over time from the same person; others are singular reviews of me and my work.

    I can count on my hand the number of people who have truly made a positive impact on my life. Nicki Artese is one of these people.

    As an exceptionally talented writer and marketer, Nicki consistently produces high-quality work. She is as creative and eloquent as she is analytical and detail-oriented, a rare combination. What’s more, Nicki’s work ethic is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. She pours her heart and soul into her work and her relationships. Naturally, these exceptional qualities carried over into her leadership style.

    In the short time that we worked together, Nicki quickly transcended her role as my supervisor and became more like a dedicated coach, who was personally vested in my professional success. Under her guidance and mentorship, I experienced a year of tremendous growth and transformation.

    I came from the non-profit world, where speed of work often outpaced quality. Through honest feedback and heart-to-heart conversations, Nicki helped me self-reflect and reconsider how I approached my work. Specifically, Nicki encouraged me to slow down and improve my attention to details. She helped me hone these skills, and she challenged me to put my best work forward - always. Thanks to Nicki’s patience and continual encouragement, I adapted my work style and became more meticulous to details, which has served me tremendously in both my personal and professional life.

    A heart-centered leader, Nicki puts others first, and she seeks to serve the people that she leads. During our one-on-one meetings, Nicki always asked how she could serve us better. I always felt comfortable coming to Nicki with any personal or work-related issues because she is open-minded, empathetic, and very self-aware. She understands herself, her emotions, and how she is perceived and received by others.

    Even more so, Nicki listens to others and seeks to understand their points of view. Her self-awareness, mindfulness, and high emotional intelligence had a profound impact on the entire organization.

    I feel so incredibly grateful that I had the opportunity to be mentored and supervised by Nicki. Not only did I learn through her craft and expertise, but Nicki helped me see my own blind spots, improve my weaknesses, and held me accountable throughout. She recognized my potential and used her own talents to help me develop my own. More than a supervisor, Nicki is a life-changing mentor and coach who shaped me into the person I am today.
