Testimonials
I met Rachel in one of the ClubHouse rooms. I was seeking to find substantial content on brand, someone who did speak brand beyond the conventional thoughts of logo, shape, and fonts.
As a global brand consultant, I cherish the passion and notion Rachel brings to the brand universe. She cuts through the clutter and brings profound thinking that helps you as a professional understand the value you bring to the table.
Right there, I knew I had to collaborate with Rachel across different platforms on the subject of brand. If the opportunity arrives, I would love to work with Rachel as a consultant, speaker, or even author of several articles, she’s just magic.
I have been working with Rachel and the team at Standout Authority for a number of months and already recommended them to a number of friends and colleagues. Rachel has done an exceptional job adapting the StandOut Authority services to what I am looking to do with my network. She and her team have also taken the team to learn and reflect my voice. I have learned a lot from them in the process. Very professional, very knowledgeable!
I had the pleasure of having Rachel B. Lee speak at my event, Social Profit Lab, and was thoroughly impressed by her presentation on ‘How to create compelling content that gets you seen and heard’. Rachel’s deep knowledge and understanding of content creation and marketing were evident from the start, and she provided valuable insights on how to create content that engages and resonates with your target audience. Her engaging and informative presentation was delivered with enthusiasm and energy, and attendees were able to walk away with actionable steps to implement in their own businesses. I appreciated Rachel’s ability to make complex concepts simple and accessible, and her passion for helping entrepreneurs succeed with content creation was evident throughout her presentation. She is a true professional who not only delivered an excellent presentation but also took the time to connect with attendees and answer their questions. I highly recommend Rachel as a speaker and content marketing expert, and I look forward to implementing her insights in my own marketing campaigns.
Rachel is a warrior…fierce, driven, confident. and highly motivated, yet she is kind, collaborative, well-liked, and highly respected by her peers and stakeholders. I absolutely loved having Rachel on the team…one of my very best hires ever. She is whip smart and will just “figure it out,” whatever it is. She is an advocate for great brands and great women leaders. If I wouldn’t get in trouble for it, I would take Rachel with me to every company I go to. She is a future CMO and #ladyboss. I can’t wait to watch her career journey…up and to the right quickly!
