Michelle is an incredible PR professional. As a business owner, she remains a "roll-up-your-sleeves" participant with her clients. She is innovative, assertive, confident, and focused on delivering value for her clients. She challenges status-quo thinking and adapts easily to changing circumstances.

We still get very positive comments on the coverage Point Taken Communications secured for First Coast Home Pros. It was probably the best ROI I have ever had on a marketing campaign. Major kudos to Point Taken Communications, that is a big compliment.
