“I love to read your emails. I save them.”

— Natalie Hansen


“Ellen has been sending out regular emails since around 2002. She has figured out what works and wants to share that with you.
She is somewhat famous for her results on joint venture partner leader boards above people with much larger lists.
Her colleagues have started using her method and gotten great results as well.
Guess what? I am one of them.
I started using Ellen’s method last year when I was contending with a health challenge.
I learned how I could serve my audience in a new way and also support my joint venture partners, while I was doing my best to kick breast cancer to the curb.”

— Nancy Juetten


“I love your email system. I am actually trying to educate partners on how to make better use of newsletters and I point them to what you do. Too many partners just randomly throw different topics into a newsletter without thinking of how it’s going to flow.”

— Danny Bermant, Director, Captain JV


“I have been following you for years; long enough for a respectful old guy to refer to you by your first name. Over that time I do not think I have ever seen, read, or participated in, any email, program, or other content you have provided that is less than a solid 10 out of 10 in terms of quality and application. Thank you for that!

As for your “10 Techniques for Better Results from Your Emails” series, I found it to be a gem. In fact, there were gems in every lesson — enough to make a very pretty bracelet! As a professional who actually does, and indeed teaches, much of what is in the course, I found enough extra actionable content in the series to make it well worth the time I spent with it.

On a scale of 1-5, with 5 being most likely, how likely am I to recommend it to a friend or colleague? This one gets a solid 5 out of 5 and I have saved the link!

And why? See above!”

Your work impacts me every time I make the time to read it! You always have helpful ideas and resources to help me, both now and in the future, and you introduce me to your cherry-picked, amazing, colleagues, who are doing the best practices you choose, yourself. I would recommend you and your brilliant services to anyone in business. What you have achieved is remarkable. Thank you, for your faithful outreach, delivered in an unassuming, “You-can-do-it, too” manner!” 

— Peggy Carr


I chose to join your Mastermind to help me become a better online marketer.

Since joining, I’ve implemented (still implementing) marketing strategies & techniques and I have met other online marketing professionals. Through sharing our stories with each other, I not only have improved my marketing skills, but also onboarded a few new clients. Yes, real clients. Learning from Ellen and all of her experiences has been great.
Thanks Ellen”

You inspire me

“I’m on your mailing list and really enjoy your emails and your classes.
You inspire me. 🙂 “

— Victoria


“Ellen, thank you for your 13 Steps to a Successful Online Business Guide. It is the only resource I’ve come across—and my overflowing email inbox is testament to how many things I’ve looked at—the only resource that starts at the beginning. And then goes on to lay it all out in sequence. And you’re giving it away for free. Thank you for cutting through all the confusion that comes from people promoting practices that a beginner is in no way yet ready for, until they have those other things in place. I like the way your mind works.”

— Krista Munson, Wellness From Within You

5 on a scale of 1 to 5

“5 on a scale of 1 to 5. I love the graphics and they have really made my social media posting so much easier. Any product I buy from you is always worth the investment. I know that I will get a high quality product and they I will be satisfied with it. I just love your products.”

— Melissa Hickok

“I implemented the 5-day challenge and wanted to let you know how much I gained from it.​I probably gained more actionable ideas from this challenge than many I have signed up for in the past. This process moved me to productive action in record time for me. Thank you! I also appreciated the kind and patient way you responded to everyone’s personal challenges throughout the sessions.” — Vicki Peel

One of the giants in the online business world

While my own priorities (or choices, perhaps?) are not currently on building a business, I am always intrigued and encouraged by what you offer.

Please know that I think you are one of the giants in the online business world, besides being a collegial, transparent and inspirational person who cares that others succeed.
Have a great week!”

She is in your corner

“Ellen is an amazing coach! She has so much insight into the online marketing world. She has helped me to launch an online program, helped me put together stellar presentations, and created a safe space for me to ask questions and grow my business.

When you work with Ellen, she can help you map out a plan of action, and the regular calls help you stay on track.

Ellen is the cheerleader you need when maybe things don’t go so well – she is in your corner, giving you sound advice based upon her many years of study, education, and knowledge.

You can’t go wrong when you work with Ellen. Thank you for the motivation!!”

— Carolyn Ortman, MBA

rick-miller-2Increased my conversation from an average
of 50% to 70%!

“As an Independent Financial Advisor, my business depends upon presenting financial concepts quickly, clearly and with visual power. Ellen worked with me to create a presentation that is unified, beautiful and incorporates people, symbols, charts and numbers (and some humor) in a way that is strikingly effective and pleasing to watch. Using this presentation increased my conversion from an average of 50% to 70%! IF you want the best, work with Ellen.”
— Rick Miller, Financial Advisor

margaret-ann-innis-1Helped me pull everything into a cohesive & dynamic extension of my business

“I reached out to Ellen to help me restructure my marketing & products.  I had all the pieces but they did not relate to each other.  Her analysis introduced me to several ways of successfully integrating my products and marketing. We were able to brainstorm about marketing via my website, email, social media and other venues.  Ellen’s insight has helped me pull everything into a cohesive & dynamic extension of my business. Working with Ellen was easy and enjoyable – wish I had done it sooner!  I highly recommend her!”

Ron PricePerfect balance of skill, knowledge, and passion

“Every now and then you find someone with the perfect balance of skill, knowledge and passion for what they do. You find those qualities in Ellen Finkelstein. Her prowess in PowerPoint added greatly to my own knowledge and skill level, but her expertise in book writing has made a huge difference in my life. I have no qualms in recommending Ellen to any who want to grow their speaking, writing and/or presentation business.”

wendy fisherWonderfully kind and patient coach

“I’m getting a HUGE VALUE from our relationship. You are really a wonderfully kind and patient coach. Seriously. You are so straightforward and yet not pushy, just kindly helping.”
— Wendy Fisher, www.retirement-online.com/

sheila-finkelsteinAn excellent coach and mentor

“I am most appreciative of the work Ellen Finkelstein (no familial relationship) has done with me.  I am a creative person, always coming up with new business, as well as other ideas, and needed a coach who would help me filter, and get and stay focused, then be in action.  Ellen does just that, adding the element of acceptance for ‘imperfection,’ when I am down on myself for not doing ‘everything right.’

“She is an excellent coach and mentor, given her own success in business.  She is a great listener, gives good feedback and also makes great suggestions coming from what I’ve expressed. She is also most supportive in recommending and passing on to her larger community things that I’ve done which fit for her and others she knows. I highly recommend dialoguing with Ellen to check what fit there might be for you. With great gratitude, Ellen, for the contribution you have been in, and made to, my life, both business and personal.”

I can’t say enough about how much value I’ve been getting

“I can’t say enough about how much value I’ve been getting from being in Reach the Stars Club. I am starting a business based on a book I’ve written and thought I could do it all myself, but I quickly realized there is just too much to know. I wanted a coach who didn’t charge me an arm and a leg and who I could speak to live at least once or twice a month. In Reach the Stars Club, you can have a call with Ellen more than that. And Ellen knows a lot about starting and growing a business. There are a lot of coaches out there who will promise big things, and I’m sure many of them are good. But if you want someone who really listens to you, Ellen Finkelstein may be just the person you’re looking for. I have dealt with other “high power” coaches and they may be good for the short term but if you’re in it for the long term and want a coach to help you develop and grow your business step by step, I strongly recommend Ellen and membership in Reach the Stars Club.”

JKoczela2013Just the first 2 weeks helped me breeze through the project

“This course has really helped me overcome my overwhelm around making PowerPoint presentations. I wanted to switch my email series to video. The information just in the first 2 weeks of this course has helped me breeze through the project so that I now have all 4 presentations done with great graphics and headlines and just need to do the audio. This is such a great way to create a teleclass/teleseminar, and the worksheets really make it so much easier to formulate a presentation. Thanks so much, Ellen, for making this easy and fun, not to mention making my series more persuasive!”
— Jeannette Koczela, www.EmpoweredSpiritCoaching.com
