Refresh Marketing was an absolute pleasure to work with. Our project had some challenges yet the team was innovative and flexible in their approach, as well as efficient and approachable throughout the process. We are thrilled with their results – an early estimate on one of their communications pieces looks like it may have doubled the revenue of last years appeal! We are so grateful and appreciative for the fantastic work they’ve done for us.

I came across Refresh Marketing from their website and google search ranking (always a good indicator). They took the time to meet me and understand my requirements, an initiative which proved to be crucial in getting the output right the first time!

After our first session, we asked Vikki to come back and conduct the web writing course to another three groups. The course was comprehensive, practical and well-targeted. It far exceeded our expectations.
Jade Gulliver – Website Officer
City of Moonee Valley
Vikki was able to tailor a course for us on short notice. It was comprehensive, yet accessible enough for all skill levels to learn a great deal. Would recommend to others.
Ryan Raybould – Web Content Officer
City of Greater Geelong
We had a large group of our people attend the session with Vikki and we were thrilled with the results. Everyone gained something practical and we felt the time investment was well worthwhile.

I was referred to Vikki by a colleague at Monash – and I’m so glad I was. We invited her in to deliver a writing workshop for our team and her suggestions and tips have been excellent. The session was terrific and we are becoming confident and capable writers ourselves!
Naren Chellappah – Marketing Manager
Faculty of Education, Monash University
Vikki delivers a well-paced and interesting web writing program. She is extremely knowledgeable and inventive and the feedback from attendees has been extremely favourable. She is easy to work with and I would have no hesitation in recommending Vikki for the delivery of a web writing course.
Jill Lewis – Web Training Consultant
Deakin University
Vikki ran a terrific half-day Writing for the Web workshop for us. It was energetic, focused and engaging. She struck the right balance between explaining the foundation of effective online communication and practical activities. She consulted with us on what we needed prior to the workshop resulting in a presentation that was well-tailored to our needs. All the attendees from Victoria’s courts and other legal sector organisations gave uniformly enthusiastic feedback. I highly recommend her for in-house training.
Elisa Berg – Deputy Director, Manager Online Strategy and Publishing
Victoria Law Foundation
We invited Vikki in to train our team on how to write for the web. The course was interesting and relevant and Vikki’s presentation style was clear, fun and engaging. All trainees found the session very practical and worthwhile and we can’t wait to practise all her great writing tips as we rewrite our website in coming months.
Tracey Olive – Manager Corporate Services
Whitehorse Maningham Libraries
Vikki attended our office over two days and conducted seminars with outstanding success and results. We would have her back at any time.
