“I just want to thank you for lighting a fire under me months ago to get into social networking. I signed up for FB and Twitter mainly to promote my brand, but it’s paid dividends in so many ways. I’m now a social media junkie. Funny thing is it’s really paying off from a PR standpoint, but that only happened when I let go of my need for it to, and started having fun with it. I don’t think I would have done this if it weren’t for you.” Debra Lee Baldwin, author, Designing with Succulents and Succulent Container Garden

“I have known Caron Golden as a colleague for many years, and have always respected honest, straightforward approach and her excellent writing and editing abilities. Recently, the Marguarite Clark Public Relations team tapped her to conduct a social media workshop, and we all emerged feeling much more confident about our social media skills. She was a great teacher — extremely knowledgeable, detail-oriented and personable. I would highly recommend her for any writing/editing projects, as well as any work involving social media and consulting. She is the consummate professional and a true leader in her field.” Sydnie Moore, Associate, Marguarite Clark Public Relations and Principal, Moore & Moore Communications

“I worked with Caron while working at The Pinehills. Caron is very easy to work with and jumps right into each project and finds a unique and create way to tell the story. One of the major projects Caron and I worked on frequently was the community newsletter that always sparked renewed interest from prospects. I would provide Caron with the stories that we would like to cover in the piece on the community and she would always come up with related and fun ideas to tie into the theme of the piece and peak the readers interest. Caron helped turn an informative piece on what was new in the community into something that people kept around to refer back to for recipes, decorating ideas, gardening, etc. I would welcome the opportunity to be able to work with Caron again in the future.” Christine MacDonald, Marketing Manager, The Pinehills

“Caron is a brilliant writer and editor with the ability to research any subject thoroughly and make complex information easy to understand. She is extremely well organized, has a high level of professionalism and is a genuinely nice person. I especially admire Caron’s networking abilities, and her expertise as a food writer, critic and radio show host.” Debra Lee Baldwin, CEO, Debra Lee Baldwin

“Total Pro. That’s Caron Golden. She’s a high-quality, on-time performer who delivered the goods for me at Audatex before a major tradeshow. Will tap again for complex and critical writing projects.” Jeff Bean, Manager, U.S. Marketing, Audatex

“I have worked with Caron and have misspelled and mispronounced her name for years. Despite that, she is still my friend and colleague. Caron and I have worked together as directors for the San Diego Press Club where she enthusiastically worked to make it one of the best of its kind in the country. Her journalistic skills are first rate. I have followed her freelance career for many years. And for years I have recommended Caron to my journalist friends whenever they needed freelance work. We do share a passion for great food and last year she joined me as a co-host on my food and wine radio program “The Gourmet Club.” She immediately took to the radio and added a great deal to the quality of the program. She also added to the quality of the show by bringing wonderful gourmet goodies into the studio for us to munch on. Caron is a good friend and a first-rate journalist and I would recommend her without exception.” Ron James, Online Content Manager, The San Diego Union-Tribune

“Caron is spot on in any category. Give her the basics of information and she can write something appropriate. She has written serious factual articles, testimonial stories and some pretty good comical speeches that were all perfectly done. She is quick with a deadline and the quality of her skills stay true even under and tight deadline. I would recommend Caron in any category of writing, she will make you look good!” Denise Bader, Sales & Marketing Manager, John Laing Homes

“Caron is an extremely talented and creative writer. She did a tremendous job for our company by fine-tuning the text for our website. Caron’s editing skills helped us to identify potential, unanswered questions with the website text that would be important to visitors to our site. She also helped us to present technical, medical information in a fashion that would be understood by medical and non-medical readers alike. Caron is very thorough and highly professional. It is my pleasure to highly recommend her.” Angela Nava, CCP, Owner, Perfusion Concepts

She is down to earth, easy to work with and worth every penny. I recommend Caron whole-heartedly!” Liz Jaeschke, Barratt American

“Caron is well known for her creativity and diligence as a professional writer. But what is not as well know are her talents as a skilled manager, able to build consensus no matter how divergent the approaches and opinions of the individuals involved. Any team with Caron as a member is very fortunate. Caron is patient, flexible, and a good listener. This is why anyone who’s had the chance to work with her is eager to work with her again and won’t hesitate to recommend her to their colleagues and friends.” Gayle Falkenthal, APR, Owner, Falcon Valley Group

She makes it much easier to get the job done right and on time.” Cheryl Dine, President, Design Perspective
