CASE STUDY:
In 2016, George Pusser asked me to coach him because he wanted to sound more confident as the spokesperson for Cornerstone Contracting, his luxury home building company. In just six session George was able to confidently articulate the unique “what, why, and how” of his business.

In 2020, George asked if I would help him create and produce a series of videos promoting his company’s extraordinary luxury home building expertise. Eight videos highlighting Cornerstones expertise and value were created including one that won a HOBI award.

The Cornerstone Edge
The Bridge

“Don has a unique facility for finding your 'sweet spot' and crafting language that suits both your style and your purpose. After twenty-five years in business, he has helped me hone a message that simply states why we do what we do and what make us different from our competitors. The impact his coaching has had on my leadership presence and its effect throughout my organization will pay dividends for many years to come.”

George Pusser, President/Owner Cornerstone Contracting
