American Roads, LLC
"With her media and communication expertise, Melanie Rembrandt
helped us squelch online rumors from developing into a major
problem within days. After assessing the situation, creating a
personal letter, teaching our team about social media, and securing
two feature stories on the front page of the local paper, Melanie
helped us turn a potential situation that could have impacted
revenue into positive results with great publicity and increased
public awareness. Thank you and we look forward to an ongoing
relationship.”
Neal Belitsky, American Roads CEO
American Writers & Artists, Inc.
"Melanie Rembrandt is a reliable copywriter who communicates
information in a way that is user-friendly and engaging. When
creating her Secrets of Becoming a Publicist program, very little
editing was necessary. This saved us time and money and allowed us
to get the program to market faster."
Katie Yeakle, American Writers & Artists, Inc. Executive Director
"Working with Melanie Rembrandt can reduce your stress level! In
addition to writing her PR program for us, I can always rely on
Melanie to provide the SEO and PR copy I need within tight
deadlines. Plus, she engages our members with excellent, in-person
and online speaking presentations that offer valuable information
and help sell our products and services."
Rebecca Matter, AWAI Co-Managing Partner, and Wealthy Web Writer
Founder
"Melanie is a dedicated, knowledgeable PR expert with just the
right combination of caring, finesse, and determination. Melanie
recently completed an engaging, very well-written home-study
program for AWAI called "Secrets of Being a Publicist" which shows
you in detail how to build your own PR firm. Melanie's upbeat,
go-getter attitude shows through in her writing and she has the
ability to break down complex tasks into simple, easy-to-understand
pieces. Melanie is definitely THE expert in the PR field! She's
very personable, easy to work with and completes all of her
projects on schedule (or ahead of schedule).
I highly recommend her for any PR or copywriting opportunities you
have available and would definitely work with her again!"
Tammy Lawman, AWAI

as well as public relations. She has helped us write press releases
and pitch stories to local and national media outlets to promote
our community outreach and fitness programs. Melanie’s efforts and
extensive media contacts have gained us national media coverage for
a major health and fitness program that we are piloting. I enjoy
working with her and highly recommend her for her extensive
experience, professionalism and responsiveness."
Marcia Luke-van Dijk, Ann Arbor YMCA Marketing Director

"Melanie has a dedication to her clients that far exceeds the norm
in her industry. Melanie was able to get me the media exposure with
well known publications where others had failed. Melanie not only
is dedicated to help her clients, she goes the extra mile to
formulate a good friendship with you. Having Melanie on my team has
been instrumental to my PR success. If you hire Melanie's firm from
this recommendation and you don't get the results you want I will
personally give you back 2 X your money."
Michael Lara, Brandango Incorporated, myBRANDANGO.com

services has been a huge help. Since our move into a beautiful, new

what you did for me."

admissions. I highly recommend her as an excellent choice for
authors or entrepreneurs who want to break into mainstream or
