"Sabine is a top-league brand strategist, who knows what it takes to develop strategic positionerings that don’t only service marketing communications but truly guide business strategy. From boardroom to operations. Her work is aimed to help a company walk the talk."

"Alsof je boks-les van Mohammad Ali krijgt. Sabine is extreem scherp en heeft het niveau van onze marketing in 3 maanden tijd 5 niveaus omhoog gepusht. Aanrader!"

"Samenwerken met Sabine is van een intensiteit die het beste in je boven haalt. Fenomenaal scherp op de inhoud, met haar ga je altijd samen de diepte in. Het is niet van; ik doe strategie, jij creatie, nee: je zit echt met elkaar zo’n merk uit elkaar te pulken tot de kern bloot ligt. Ze heeft een enorme drive en energie, aanstekelijke passie voor het vak en een sterk gevoel voor wat creatief kwaliteit heeft en wat niet. Sabine is zo’n stratege die overal de luiken wijd open zet bij iedereen, aan klantzijde zowel als bij creatieven. Verschrikkelijk waardevol."

"Working with Sabine brought real authority on brand and identity to our positioning work. The result was a clear statement of who we are, around which we could build strongly focused communications materials. Sabine has remained on board as we move into the implementation phase, including a new visual identity for the organization. Sabine brings a wealth of experience to her work, along with a no nonsense, get things done attitude."

"Sabine was very generous with her knowledge and time. She really made an effort to understand our business and has a truly collaborative dynamic. The knowledge she has from working in a range of industries was valuable in providing us with a broader POV that ultimately helped us define a communications plan that effectively supported our brand positioning and commercial goals. I’d definitely recommend Sabine for both her approach and the quality of her output."
