“I contacted Susie thinking she could help in some way with planning a new retail food business in Oakland. She not only knew the landscape of the local food retailer scene, she had broad insight into trends and specialty grocery best practices across the U.S. Susie enthusiastically connected me with food leaders and other consultants in the Bay Area and offered an array of helpful business model ideas. I’d recommend her as a consultant to anyone seeking a quick start to forming their food product or retail concept ideas and getting connected.”

Since the time she discovered and tracked us down at our local farmers market, we have enjoyed her clear passion, ongoing knowledge, and eye-on-the-future view about the artisan food scene. Susie’s all about seeing the possibilities and finding opportunities. She was instrumental in introducing our products to Foodzie.com, live event producers, and the right retailers. We even hired Susie to help us with website content after seeing her writing chops on online store, and continue to enjoy her ideas, connections, and friendship!”
