Testimonials

“Susan J. Farese of SJF Communications is simply the best! If you want to work with someone who believes in your project as if it was her own, then Susan is the person you want to hire. From the moment I met Susan, I knew that she would become one of the best collaborators I have worked with—she asked great questions, she listened intently, and then offered a wealth of ideas about what we needed to accomplish and how we would be successful in getting it done. Susan recently designed and launched my new website – patriciageistmartin.com and facilitated my navigating and utilizing it. Even more, Susan is a sleuth—she investigates and finds some of the best avenues for promoting your work. Not only did I find the best marketing and PR person in Susan, she has become a friend that I look forward to working with in my next project”.

A Testimonial re: Susan J. Farese, SJF Communications via:

Alex Nemiroski, Actor/Performer, 12/6/16:

“Susan J. Farese was absolutely vital to helping launch my performing career on the West Coast. I moved here from the East Coast, and despite success there, struggled to break in to the San Diego scene on my own. After just one session with Susan, I walked away with so much insider knowledge that would have taken me years to gain alone, including (1) the who’s who of theaters, artistic directors (+contact info), auditions, vocal coaches, and dance classes, (2) key recommendations on how, and with whom to network, and (3) invaluable advice on headshots and resume content. Susan really knows her stuff and will fill you in on everything you don’t know. After following her advice, I met all the right people, and after only a few months started to see major results, both in my skills (because of great coaching) and performance opportunities (started getting cast in professional shows). On top of it all, Susan is an absolute delight , she’s extremely supportive and truly cares about her clients. What are you waiting for?” -Alex Nemiroski
