Transferring brand-elevating knowledge is in my DNA…

As a brand elevation enthusiast and certified trainer, I crave transferring brand leadership strategies through training + speaking!

Get ready to ENGAGE, as my training programs and workshops are much more than standing in front of an audience with one-way delivery. Whether I am facilitating a brand-centric workshop or speaking at a private luncheon or conference, I engage your audience with compelling content and powerful activities. I love to get my audiences thinking! I turn the typical boring speaking forums into interactive, fun, collaborative events that effectively transfer brand building techniques and key strategies to our audiences for immediate use! Learning happens most effectively in a context of fun, collaboration, and interaction.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:

“Suzanne struck me as someone who was born to be in branding. She was so passionate and knowledgeable about branding that you know she enjoys what she does. I think that her presentation was the most entertaining of all and she really tried to engage the class.”
–Marketing Grad Student, UCCS, Colorado Springs

“I enjoyed Suzanne’s speech a lot! I thought she was super engaging and loved her activity that challenged me to think creatively to build a brand that appeals not only to the minds and emotions of my target market, but also to the human senses.”
–Marketing Grad Student, UCCS, Colorado Springs

“I think that Suzanne is a wonderful public speaker and I can see why she gets paid to do this. Her PowerPoint was creative and I really liked that she let us do an activity on our own. It really helped me to understand the material and get a feel for branding a company.”
–Marketing Grad Student, UCCS, Colorado Springs

“This was a very educational and interactive presentation.  Ms. Tulien gave the class a creative outlet in which to learn about branding.  The class eagerly engaged in her exercise to understand how senses impact brand management and success.  These thoughtful exercises were very useful and empowering.”
–Marketing Grad Student, UCCS, Colorado Springs

“I just wanted to thank you again for such a GREAT session last evening and to let you know that I’m very anxious to start reading the book I bought. When I got in the office this morning I immediately started to ask our staff some of the questions that I learned from you (I’m surprised at what I’m hearing.) Thank you again.” – Jariah R. Walker, Walker Asset Management Realtors

Suzanne is one of those rare individuals who understands discovering a company’s brand is not simply an intellectual exercise where her objective is to “tell” them what their brand is. With her own authenticity and genuine concern for other people’s success, she skillfully guides people to discover what they are about that is more than the product or service they sell. As a result, all employees of the company, at every level, know how to create the experience and “live” the brand rather than delivering something they relate little to and have to be told how to deliver it. Customers have the environment where they feel better instead of feeling indifference. And feeling better is what brings them back for more.”  — Michelle Romantica, Radio Show Host, The Customer Experience Show

“Suzanne is a subject matter expert and superb facilitator for building a dynamic culture and brand. I have been in two organizations that immersed themselves in her engaging and powerful Brand DNA process. Her process fully enrolls everyone from customer facing staff to senior executives so that all conclusions are readily embraced and instantly internalized by all stakeholders. If your enterprise wants to experience immediate and lasting transformation, engage Suzanne.”

–Robert Todd, Co-Founder, Bitweld and Build Value Now

“Suzanne is a dynamic speaker who is highly engaging with her audience.  Her brand building exercise is one of the best I’ve seen in a classroom.  My students were very impressed with what they came up with in such a short time. Suzanne drew out creativity they didn’t even know they had.  From beginning to end, she holds the attention of the audience.” – Andrew Czaplewski, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Marketing & International Business, College of Business, UCCS

“Suzanne has facilitated training in our organization to bring the branding basics to our team.  She is dynamic, entertaining and engages all the senses in her training methods.  If you are looking to elevate your brand and engage your team in the process, I highly recommend her.” – Jane Peck, Administrator, Endodontist Specialists of Colorado, LLC
