"After more than 300 interviews and counting, I know what makes an excellent podcast guest, and Nancy Quinn (Nancy Ganzekaufer) hits not one but all four of my favorite qualities: 1) She comes prepared with actionable advice and strategies for her topic. 2) She relates her information in a way that inspires and doesn't intimidate or overwhelm. 3) She can think on her feet and have fun! 4) My audience loves her!"

Interested in Interviewing Nancy or Lesley?

"I can't say enough good things about Nancy! She spoke at a conference for IDS Portland and attendees are still raving about what she talked about. Not only did she share tools and strategies everyone could use to build their businesses, but she also presented them in a way that we can easily take action and implement what we learned. Nancy also connects with everyone on an individual level and understands that our businesses are as unique as each of us. As one designer shared with me afterward, this was the first time she left a conference without thinking she needed to change her way of doing business because it didn't match what was presented. Nancy truly wants to see everyone succeed and because of this, she teaches with a heart to encourage and build up."
Beth Clark
President | IDS Portland Chapter
"Nancy is a powerful professional with a fierce heart for service. Her wisdom and expertise are apparent in her energetic and passionate presentations. She's a joy to interview and to work with. The audience was shocked at the amount of value she delivered!"
Katie Gutierrez
Owner/Founder | Biographical Design
"A big thank you to you and your team for hosting this 4-week masterclass with our designers. It's been nothing short of a wholesome experience of running an interior designer business successfully. You touched on all aspects of a design business from approaching a client to getting more clients and increasing the profit curve. I am sure each designer who participated found this valuable just as I did. We look forward to partnering with you in the future for many such engagements and feeding our designers with the taste of one-of-one mentorship."
