The company’s leadership team brought us in to explore the power of digital communities and the impact they could have on its business.

Vanessa DiMauro clearly proved to be an articulate and provocative thought-leader on social networks along with the influences that drive the creation, evolution, and sometimes destruction of digital communities. Her fact-based commentary and in-depth knowledge was often punctuated with her enthusiastic, witty, and frankly entertaining delivery during our discussions.

Her work has fundamentally shaped and reinforced my thinking regarding online communities and their value for our business. I absolutely and highly recommend Vanessa to anyone or any firm wishing to leverage the power of digital communities.”
