What Others Are Saying

Here are a few things others have said about working with Sarah:

“I have had the pleasure to work with Sarah Pinnix with the Talk of Town Workshops at the Broyhill Inn & Conference Center. I have found Mrs. Pinnix to be extremely informative and wonderful to work with. Her instruction style is always upbeat and personal to the individual attendees and the various sessions have accurately covered all the upcoming and rapidly developing New Media platforms. Hosting these session at the Broyhill Inn have allowed me to learn about New Media platforms from the ground up and how they can help me better connect with my customers. As a media coach, Mrs. Pinnix’s orchestration of these sessions have been priceless to me and have given me clear and accurate direction for my specific questions and objectives. Additionally, I have been impressed with her willingness to share her experiences with the others in the sessions so that all the attendees have had a value added experience. As a hospitality professional I understand how important it is to accurately communicate with your customers and Sarah demonstrates a skill to teach and coach at a level that is easily absorbed and understood. I would highly recommend Sarah Pinnix to aid you and your company in your New Media development.” ~Doug Uzelac, General Manager, Broyhill Inn & Appalachian Conference Center

“The Talk of the Town Series helped us understand the power of social media and how we might use it to start a conversation with our customers. We found the interaction with Sarah, Boomer, and Scott to be informative and refreshing and also enjoyed brainstorming ideas with our fellow classmates. Our Facebook page has grown by leaps and bounds – surpassing all of our expectations, and it is a ready resource to convey timely happenings.” Sherri Moretz, Marketing Director, Mast General Store

“Attending the social media workshops put on by Talk of the Town has been the most worthwhile professional development time I’ve spent all year. Each session was practical, hands-on, and relevant; Sarah, Scott and Boomer taught me exactly what I needed to know. Before I ever left the Broyhill Inn after each session, I was able to implement what I’d learned — on my own computer for my own website. I can already see a significant up-tick in traffic to my website as a result of utilizing what I’ve learned during these last six months. Thanks so much!”   Barbara Kelley, Food Writer/Owner at My Sister’s Kitchen
