When the National Association of Workforce Boards chose a new communications firm, we did a thorough review of our choices and could not be happier with FCM.

Without a doubt, FCM provided our organization with the right re-branding strategy and solutions. Using a collaborative approach to engage our stakeholders resulted in an expanded awareness and understanding of our mission.
Bruce England – Executive Director
Susquehanna Workforce Network
Full Capacity Marketing has a distinct and effective style of collaboration that is highly successful in bridging gaps and finding common ground between various stakeholders. Their public awareness campaign was highly successful in improving our brand awareness, but most importantly laid the foundational groundwork for building partnerships with our most important community stakeholders within the public workforce investment system, economic development and community colleges.

FCM has an energetic, professional, smart team that understands the world of community colleges. What I appreciate most about FCM is their responsiveness and ability to deliver quality products and services very rapidly. Our brand strategy and subsequent marketing and communications tools developed by FCM are outstanding and have helped our team achieve great success. I would recommend FCM without hesitation to any community college.
Audrey Reille, Ed. D. – Director

California Corporate College hired FCM to help one of our customers with understanding their market position and how to best sell their products and services. We were so impressed with FCM’s approach, analysis and the presentation to our customer. It has far exceeded what we were contracted to do and I know the information will help our customer make an informed decision on how to best position their organization. Thanks FCM!
Catherine Swenson – Director
California Corporate College
Part of our Board’s strategy in looking at future trends and creating solutions for our community requires engaging the many public/private workforce, economic and educational partners. FCM has greatly supported this strategy that provides a two-way communication mechanism for our community stakeholders to weigh-in on our funding, our strategies, and key initiatives.

By far, Celina Shands is one of the most talented PR professionals that I have ever met in my 20 years in broadcast. Thinking out-of-the-box is the norm for Celina as evidenced by her cause-related marketing projects.
Leslie Groza – Noon News Producer
KFMB TV 8 – San Diego
Celina and FCM is an exceptional talent. Her ability to perceive the intellectual concept and the parameters of a problem or challenge and artfully apply solutions and expertise is astounding. She has powerful and effective interpersonal skills and consistently delivers outstanding products and service on time and without cost over runs. I strongly endorse her company and the work performed.
Booker Graves – Former Executive Director
State of Colorado – Office of Workforce Development
FCM is a resource that other workforce boards should tap. As a result of our work with FCM, we have completely re-branded our Board and restructured our customer service and communication processes. I would recommend their services without hesitation to any of my workforce colleagues.
Adam Peck – Executive Director
Workforce Investment Board of Tulare County
We worked with FCM to teach employees consultative sales techniques and to think differently about service delivery for our employer customers. In a time constrained environment, FCM kept in regular contact with our office, developed marketing materials and trained all our staff. The staff enjoyed the training while they were learning and were pleased with the professional marketing materials.
Shannon Munro – Executive Director

The FCM team is bright, professional, creative and highly strategic. The brand strategy and outreach materials they developed exceeded our expectations, and have been instrumental in helping us meet our goals and objectives.
Sharon Sewell – Director, Program Operations

The plan developed by FCM has helped position CRY-ROP to clearly communicate its benefits to each of the target groups based upon evidence of impacts. CRY-ROP would not hesitate to hire/contract with FCM in the future. Working with the responsive, professional FCM support team has been a pleasant reminder of how powerful and effective the blending of industry leading professionals and progressive educators can be.

I’ve learned in our re-branding journey with FCM that there has to be a clear alignment from all of our business processes to our brand strategy.
