"Susan is a key performer...her expertise in conveying messages to both our corporate and entrepreneur business owners is undeniable. She consistently helps them to see how to capitalize on the possibilities to leverage their talent and scale their business."

"You truly ‘rocked’ your session today at the St. John’s County Chamber “Pitch Factory”. I could see your gift in instructing others very clearly and it’s always a pleasure for me to see and hear that type of gift in action!"

"Susan Appleton has the unique ability to accept you where you are, help you build confidence in yourself, and then helps you tackle the issues holding you back. Her feedback is on target and motivating. Her ability to help me with my soft skills and coach me in business in meaningful ways for me is priceless."

"...her ability to really see me, or maybe I should say, see the real me! I feel like Susan has helped free the potential in me. It is not often that one can sit down and be completely transparent with themself and have someone there to listen to everything you’re thinking and feeling and then in addition to just listening, help to equip you with the tools that you need to deal with the challenges that life throws your way and work out what you really want and need from a situation. I love and will continue to use what I have learned from my coaching for years to come and Susan Appleton, you are the next best thing to sliced bread."

"Thank you so much for helping me improve my communications skills by breaking down what seemed like a big, insurmountable problem into much smaller, actionable steps. You gave me a concrete plan for improvement. I feel so much more confident and prepared as a result of your coaching and our discussions. Thank you so much for your expertise and guidance!"

"... like no other. She helped me realize my goals and gave me the skills and confidence to go after them. Knowing that Susan had my back, I took on adventures I would have put off - I said yes to an offer to be interviewed on a radio show about a cause I advocate for, I confidently took the microphone and spoke about my loved one at a memorial and I accepted an instructor position teaching what I love - she really opened up my world to new possibilities. Susan Appleton is worth every penny! ...And, she taught me I am too."

"I attended the Speaker Success Strategy where Ms. Appleton was the co-lead. All I can say is “wow”. I learned more in 2 hours than I learned in full semester of public speaking courses at our one of our local colleges."

"Susan modeled confidence in body language and verbal communication. Susan reviewed my material content for relevancy and made suggestions as needed. Susan customized and designed a treatment plan that was unique to me. As a result, I took the prize in my first business presentation contest. Susan Appleton is a very valuable asset and I would highly recommend Appleton Communication to professionals, organizations or anyone looking to improve presentation/public speaking skill."

"Her presentation, content and willingness to share her expertise with us was invaluable, to say the very least. Susan has an incredible "stage presence" that is simply second to none, and I felt that I was hanging on each and every word, doing my best to soak up her tips, knowledge and advice. The Pitch Factory sessions were literally worth hundreds, if not thousands of dollars, and Susan’s part was key and instrumental in my perception of its high value. It is no wonder she does what she does so successfully!"

"What I loved most about our work together is that Susan really helped me to build my inner confidence first, which could then translate to a truly authentic and strong outer presentation. She helped me to discover what was getting in my way and to create processes that give me control and consistency in my presentations. Susan really connected with my objectives and seemed to just get me right away. She stuck with me every step of the way and offered really targeted support. I saw a clear evolution in my overall presence and sense of confidence through our work together and I am grateful to have had this opportunity."
