“My name is Brian Hebbel. I was a senior federal contracting official for 34 years. Since retirement in 2017, created and manage a consulting and training company, BARC Business Advisors, LLC. My company provides consulting and training services to help Government Contractors win more government contracts.

I have been using the services of Strategic Management & Logistics (SML) for over 18 months. SML provides marketing and training support services to my company. SML has a been can-do company, always willing to manage and support the marketing and training support activities. SML’s expertise in marketing and training support services allow me to focus on activities in my areas of expertise to drive new business to my company.

SML use various marketing techniques to bring more customers to my company’s the training events. SML provides marketing on both LinkedIn and Eventbrite marketing platforms that drive attendees to my training events. It is done in a seamless manner. SML is so good at this process, I do not have to review their work. I’ve learned to have 100% confidence and trust in their expertise and knowledge of my business marketing drivers. They provide significant value to my company. As a result of their expertise, my small training and consulting company appears to be a much larger and professional organization, all thanks to the expertise of SML.

In addition, I can’t do without SML on the day of every one of my virtual training events. All of my training events have appeared to have run perfect to the attendees. SML is at each of my training events to tackle challenges in technologies and attendees challenges with a virtual training/technology world. SML has been able to do this in a professional can-do manner. I could not do without SML support services for all of my past training events and continue to use their services long into the future. They have become an integral part of my training platform.

SML has allowed my business to concentrate of what we good at, and not have to worry about technical aspects of marketing and training logistics activities that are not in my company’s wheelhouse of skills. Through our partnership, SML has become an integral part of my business processes that I can not do without. My training colleagues also recognize the value of SML’s expertise, as the 75 training sessions I have conducted over the past year have had SML support to ensure the trainers and attendees see no problems with the virtual technologies.

In addition, SML President, Marney Lumpkin is always and I mean always, a positive force on every training event or support activity for my company. Her attitude is infectious and she never says “no” or “I can’t do it”. When I need an activity completed or have a problem, I know I can always count on the experts and professionals at SML to support my business endeavors.”

“When I think of dependability, someone who is always on-it and ready to take on any project with a smile, it’s Marney. My team and I rely on her for a variety of support and I never have to think about whether it will get done!”

“Marney is a treasure to work with. She is a critical thinker who gets things done without hand-holding. She is quick and efficient and accurate. Her positive attitude makes my job so much easier. I am afraid to refer her to too many people because I need her!”

“I’ve had the opportunity to use the diverse services of SML and Marney Lumpkin for the past 4 years. There hasn’t been any task too complicated or simple that they haven’t enthusiastically embraced and accomplished. Marney Lumpkin, is outstanding and energetic and always willing to take on new tasks. When we enter territory and tasks that they are not familiar with, the challenge of mastering that new information is approached with intent and excitement. Bottom line, there is no one better.”

“I was introduced to Marney in 2021 when I was struggling with all the tasks that a solo entrepreneur has to handle. She quickly connected me with one of her team members, who has done a terrific job helping me with my miscellaneous tasks as a virtual assistant, particularly helping me stay on top of my events and my social media. Grateful for all of the help that Marney and SML have been to me even after only a few months!”

“Marney has helped me with my administrative work over the past few years. This includes scheduling and posting social media and email campaigns, assisting behind the scene in my webinars, helping transfer contacts to a CRM, and many other tasks to take the burden off me! She is extremely organized, energetic, pleasant, and ready to help out wherever needed. Marney is a lifesaver and I highly recommend her services!”

“Where do I begin? I truly appreciate Marney (Strategic Management & Logistics) and her professional work ethics. She has helped me rebuild my entire brand website (www.ericasurvived.com) from scratch and she always supports my request for any site assistance in a timely fashion. I enjoy working with Marney and I would highly recommend Strategic Management & Logistics if you’re looking for support to rebuild or start a brand new website for your business or brand.”

“I have been working with Marney and SML for a few years now, and I can definitely attribute the growth of my business to her team. They have provided me with critical outsourced marketing support that allowed me to concentrate on what I’m best at – Business Development. The staff I work with is proactive, bringing me fresh ideas before I have to ask for them. Marney and Pam are so good, that I continue to give them more work to do, and they continue to impress me with their ability to complete any task I ask of them.”
