Client Testimonials

"Dabney and her team's work has been incredible for Outschool. They are effective executors, strategic advisors, and a delight to work with."

"Dabney has been an incredibly invaluable part of our extended team. She came in and rapidly built a strategic approach to our PR goals, secured a ton of briefings with top tier reporters and exceeded our very high expectations with our fundraising announcement! Dabney clearly has been able to build highly respected and valuable relationships with the media which really helped us get perspective on our messaging and ensured our ability to rapidly gain traction.
I have relied on Dabney for her advice, support, and partnership and can't recommend her highly enough!"

"I cannot speak highly enough of Dabney Lawless. Strategic, consummate professional, drives amazing results, a trusted advisor and business partner, a wonderful mentor and leader for our PR team, and just a fabulous, positive, and high integrity person to boot! She has played a critically important role in helping to drive the ModCloth brand and business forward. We are thrilled and fortunate to have the pleasure of being her client."

"Dabney is a true gem. She strikes just the right balance I look for in consultants - big focus on results, while also being fun and personable to work with. Having been in-house, she has a unique understanding of what is needed as a communications leader at a startup, and how she can most effectively help. She also has a very collaborative, yet direct approach, which is refreshing. She'll call it when she doesn't think something will work, but always has another solution to offer up. Plain and simple, she helps me do my job better. I am incredibly appreciative for the great work she does - and the fun she brings to it."

"Dabney is quick, proactive, and results-oriented. She's tenacious with the media, great at organizing a team, and just gets stuff done!"

"Dabney has been the exclusive PR partner for theBoardlist for the last several years and we are so lucky to have had her support. theBoardlist is an early stage startup that achieved an outsized media presence and developed a premium brand, in large part because of the incredible work that Dabney and her team did. She has incredible intuition built on years of experience about how to pitch stories and provided us access to some of the most prestigious media outlets - New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Fortune, etc. Her work has helped establish us as a thought leader in board diversity. theBoardlist wouldn't be what it is without her!"
