She has proven to be an invaluable resource for technical advice and I have greatly enjoyed our conversations regarding all things networking and all things social media. Jamie "gets it". She understands that social media is more than just tweeting and posting updates to FaceBook or LinkedIn. She is one of the very few people I know who also realizes the importance of answering emails and responding to voice messages. If these skills sound fairly basic, and they should be for everybody ... take it from me, they are mighty tough to find these days regardless of any skill level of the individual in question. It's called being responsive and that is what Jamie is. This leads me to believe that the same can be assumed in her dealings with her clients. If for no other reason, I feel comfortable in referring Jamie on that basis alone. Even better, I have every confidence
