Michelle Damico Communications - Chicago, Illinois

Ella S.

When I first connected Michelle Damico for mentorship, I was still very new to the US PR landscape. I knew my fundamentals, but still had a lot to learn about pitching in a new media environment. The shift came with a lot of challenges and, honestly, some self-doubts. Michelle’s guidance not only helped me sharpen my strategy, but it also gave me the second wind I needed to go after my aspirational outlets, and eventually land them.

But beyond the PR wisdom (which, of course, is already incredibly valuable in and of itself), what stays with me on a personal level are Michelle’s encouragements. With every tactical insight came a reminder that I CAN do this — that my skills are solid and that I had no reason to hesitate. That kind of reassurance leaves a lasting impact, especially when you're navigating new territory. On top of all that, she makes time for me despite the time zone difference all the way from the Philippines.

And the fact that she does all this gratis? That just speaks volumes about the kind of person she is — generous, supportive, and truly invested in helping others succeed.

I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to learn from her. Endless thanks to you, Michelle!

Michelle and the whole team at Michelle Damico Communications worked very well with our internal corporate marketing team and we utilized them for a 2-year period. They constantly had new ideas on how to increase our PR and especially garnering speaking engagements for our leadership. When we stopped using them and hired an internal PR team, we were very well trained on who to look for and what successful PR looks like.

I highly recommend Michelle Damico Communications for any company new to PR or looking for a talented outsource when you need to increase exposure.

Our business is much too small to hire a PR firm, but that doesn’t stop Michelle from offering great ideas and tips to improve our marketing and increase our reach on social media. She’s very insightful with a natural drive to help.
