Introducing Power Hour

Let’s address your challenges head-on by combining your industry expertise and my communication expertise. 

In advance of our session, you’ll complete an intake form and I’ll do some homework. You’ll come with a clear head. I’ll come full of ideas.  

Our fast-paced session will address your challenges and uncover new opportunities. Together, we can make it so much easier for you to move forward!

You will walk away with an actionable plan. A clear roadmap. Some might call it a to-do list. No matter what you call it, you’ll be ready to hit the ground running!

Story Time

In 2015, a recruiter reached out to me and said my experience was perfect for a marketing consultant role at Verizon *especially* because I didn’t have a telecom background.

WAIT. WHAT?

You heard that right. They had an incredibly smart and capable marketing team with decades of telecom industry experience. However, the team wanted to bring someone on who had senior-level marketing and communications expertise but limited knowledge of the actual telecom business.

If a Fortune 500 has that mentality, shouldn’t you take the same approach?

Wish you had access to someone with senior-level expertise who can provide a fresh perspective?

Hi. That’s me, Lori.

I am the founder of elssus, LLC, a multi-disciplined communications consulting firm. I build and grow companies’ reputations thereby increasing awareness, business results and credibility. Think of me as a nontraditional publicist for companies as early as startups and as established as Global 500s. 

I am also a co-founder of Business Abnormal, a human communication collective, bringing together three communication experts with different skill sets and similar mindsets. Business Abnormal is a flexible, on-demand resource offering agility and experience in navigating tumult.

Prior to launching my consultancy, I held senior-level marketing, communication and business development roles at world-class global organizations including Verizon, World 50, NBCUniversal and DDB. My writing has been featured in prestigious media outlets such as U.S. News and World Report, Huffington Post and The Muse.

And, now, I’m extending my expertise into a bite-size offer for startup founders, business owners and those who are looking to find their way.

I’m ready to get started! Are you? Yes? Book your time here.
