Client Feedback

 

In my position as Director of Development at the University of Michigan Institute for Social Research, I have worked with Linda for over a decade and on more than a dozen projects. These have ranged from solicitation letters to brochures to case statements. On some occasions, we have given her a little information and let her run with it. In other situations, there have been multiple meetings with an array of stakeholders. In every case, Linda has proven herself to an effective partner in the process and has produced very effective documents that produce results. We always view money spend on Linda as money well spent. It has been a pleasure to work with her and I look forward to continuing to do so.

Linda brings a sophisticated blend of professionalism, creativeness and expertise to the table, which we find is especially important in a writer. We enjoyed partnering with her and hope to continue to do so in the future.

I have worked with Linda for a long time because she truly listens and has the unique ability to grasp the message I want to convey. What she delivers is always exactly what I am hoping for and it is succinct, elegant, impactful, and I rarely change a word.

For nearly 20 years, the Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation has looked to Linda Fitzgerald for copy editing to enhance many of our communications and print publications. Linda knows the Community Foundation and our work inside and out. Because she really listens to all aspects of what we are striving to communicate—tone, image, emotions and message—she offers invaluable advice and guidance in helping us put together communications that are genuine, compelling and resonate with our audiences.

Linda brings far more than great writing skills to projects we hire her to work on. She has the ability to ask just the right questions to help focus and clarify the project, and I am always comfortable sending her to meet with anyone at any level in the University.

Linda’s group is first on my list whenever a nonprofit I am working with needs advice on developing a comprehensive communications plan. Not only is Linda an expert wordsmith and talented in traditional arts, her work remains fresh, contemporary and on the edge. She is what I would call a ‘thinking practitioner,’ someone with the highest professional standards who also cares about her clients and their causes.

No one writes better than Linda Fitzgerald. Even with a glimmer of an idea presented to her, she can produce the most interesting, succinct, clear piece. She’s amazing and what a pleasure it is to turn to her for help with any editorial project. The bonus is that she works quickly…no reminders needed..and she has quickly grasped exactly what is needed. I want to be president of her fan club!
