 "Maria is helping me create exciting new opportunities, professionally and personally. She understands my goals and is committed to helping me achieve them. What is unique about Maria is that she values human potential and weaves this into her image consulting work. She understands my goals including a phrase I regularly use in my work called "aligning personal and corporate branding". I would highly recommend Maria to anyone who is interested in taking a bold leap forward internally and externally."

“When I first met Maria, I told her I didn’t need her service and that I was perfectly aware of what professional appearance entailed.  At one of Maria’s workshop's, I realized I still had something to learn.  On a shopping trip with Maria it didn’t take long before I had three strong outfits that flattered my build and showed me at my best.  I feel more confident and professional and I am now taken more seriously.  I recommend Image Impact for anyone who wants to improve their image and confidence whether professionally or personally.”

"Maria helped me determine what MY colours are and to understand my body type and the clothing that best suits it. With this knowledge, I  know now how to dress for success and feel great at the same time.  She is professional, friendly, and knowledgeable and I would highly  recommend her to everyone.

“Maria has been a great help to me in teaching me how to put an outfit together, what colours and styles to wear.  I always feel great when I wear the clothes she has helped me choose.”

“I was amazed by how much Maria knew, who I was on the inside even though I was portraying a different look. Everything was great!”
Dayna Trush – Entrepreneur – Wee Piggies & Paws

 

“Maria Smith of Image Impact showed me how much my outer appearance was affecting my inner self. I was self sabotaging by how I was dressing.  I took Maria’s advice and dressed professionally.  Immediately I saw instant changes in my life.  Success came to me in my business, personal and spiritual life.  Most important, I started respecting myself more. What I enjoyed learning most was business etiquette and manners.  Before I was inadequate and self conscious, now I feel confident and worthy.”

“What a revelation! Okay, so I had a lot to learn, not to mention a closet full of, well, let’s say unsuitable clothes.  Now I know what styles and colours to shop for, I will find what works for me, my body shape, and how to put them all together to create the image I want to portray.”
Debra Philp – President, Thunder Bay Business Women’s Network
