“Our partnership with Julie and TMG has been transformational for the growth and expansion of Envision Dallas. Julie has created a process that finds, cultivates and engages new donors in our mission in a way that we have never experienced before, and it is having a profound impact on our organization. Julie cares deeply about our agency, our people, and ensuring that the ROI we are making in our grant program is significant and meaningful. She is a true partner, and an extension of our development team. As one of the largest employers of people who are blind and visually impaired, with the help of TMG, we are working to dramatically increase the number of people we employ and serve—through both capital and programmatic grant relationships. ”

“Julie is one of the best grant consultants that I have worked with in my 30+ years of development. She is the consummate professional—organized, strategic and creative. Julie effortlessly pulled together an inordinate amount of information into concise, compelling and successful grant requests. She has researched and developed a significant prospect list for us and been instrumental in creating valuable and productive cultivation strategies. Julie is the absolute best!”

“Julie has really helped me “up my game” in the donor cultivation and stewardship space. She asks thoughtful questions—always looking for the “why”—and nudges me to connect with funders in ways that feel authentic to me, and in ways that I have never considered before.”

“Julie has been instrumental to the fundraising efforts at Marian Middle School. Her creative and collaborative style meshes seamlessly with our existing development team to advance our school forward! With her help, we’ve been able to find new sources of funds, grow our existing donor base, and better target our grant requests to both meet the needs of our donors and our students. She’s extremely organized, professional, and brings new and fresh ideas to Marian at each meeting! ”

“Julie was a great addition to our agency! She quickly learned about our programs and captured the essence of our mission in her writing. Julie created a robust prospect list, and our grant funding increased threefold in one year. ”

“Working with Julie has allowed our organization to focus on major gifts, the annual fund, and special events, while not missing a beat in securing grants. Julie’s enthusiasm has brought life to our grant program, and working with her is a breath of fresh air. The knowledge and professionalism she exudes has made for a seamless entry to our team. We are truly grateful for the partnership with Julie and Taylor Management Group.”

“I am so appreciative our paths crossed. You and your team elevated our message in a way we never could. We are excited and humbled at our future with your partnership!”

“When the Saint Louis University School of Medicine wanted to overhaul our Grand Rounds alumni magazine, we turned to Julie. From developing a new thematic concept which helps us showcase our thought leadership, to editorial strategy, Julie marries creative vision with an eye toward ROI. Julie is hands-on—interviewing our physician and scientist teams, writing articles and editing. She’s forward-thinking and collaborative when it comes to development solutions, and works creatively to leverage communication strategies for higher education. ”

“While Mary Ryder Home has been serving St. Louis’ most vulnerable senior women since 1930, it was only since we hired Julie and Taylor Management Group, that we were able to research and secure new sources of grant funding for the organization. Under Julie’s leadership, MRH found and secured new grant dollars that are truly helping our residents live better lives. What’s more, using Julie to outsource our grants made sure that our development needs were handled by an expert team of grant writers, researchers and consultants—and allowed us to better focus our time and energy on our mission.”

“Tara is truly a gem. I’ve worked with a lot of grant writers, and have rarely found someone so responsive, knowledgeable and thorough. She got to know our organization so quickly and really helped us get to where we need to be. We’ll definitely reach back out when we need help with something like this going forward.”

“For several years I have worked with Julie. She has helped develop our website, researched and secured funding as our contracted grant writer, and has helped to create and build our social media campaign. Julie is professional, organized, and a great writer. For her nonprofit clients, she comes with a great perspective, adding valuable insight due to her background in corporate philanthropy. Julie has been a great addition to our team and I feel very fortunate to work closely with her.”

“Julie’s work was invaluable to our mission and our growth. Because we are a start-up credit union serving low income teenagers, we turned to Julie for her expertise in both nonprofit fundraising and small business consulting. She helped us every step of the way—including formation and operations, business plan development, grant writing and donor communications. Julie’s ability to tell our story and to communicate with a variety of different audiences, donors, collaborators to name just a few, has allowed us to grow much more quickly than we had anticipated.”

“Julie is more than a writer….she’s a thinker and an excellent addition to any strategic or creative team. Julie asks the right questions and delivers smart, thoughtful results on budget and on time.”

“Julie really understands food marketing—both at a strategic level, and in terms of connecting with our customers on a day-to-day basis. I’ve worked with her in both B2B and B2C environments, whereby she created and executed our social media strategy that included creating relationships with customers that that drove significant traffic to our website. She is great to work with and really drives results.”

“I have hired Julie to write our annual reports, edit, write and proof read for our website, write for brochures and events. She was very professional and personable. She was able to grasp what we are all about and write about us in a way that was easy for people to understand and made it compelling to read. I highly recommend Julie! She is our “go to” person when we need anything written!”

“Julie looks at her work with nonprofits through the lens of a donor. While she is mission-driven, she knows that we need to be wholly focused on fundraising in order to support both our day-to-day work and our long-term vision. Julie helped Pianos for People reframe the way we tell our story, so donors can better understand how we help change the lives of children through the transformative power of music—and she made it easier for donors to say yes.”

“Gateway Government Solutions has relied on TMG for many years for social media strategy and online content. Julie and her team are professional and innovative—they work to understand our audience and develop messages that resonate with our various stakeholders, develop original content, and create a buzz around our message so we can do what we do best—run our business. Julie has an innate ability to understand complex issues very fast and very well, and write about them like an industry insider.
”

“I would highly recommend working with Julie and her company. She is thoughtful, analytic and resourceful. Julie was able to think outside the box and help us create a plan that worked with how our organization operates, and not how it should operate. She was able to understand our philosophy and how we like to involve people in the process. That meant taking a typical retail operation and standing it on its head and making it work. Julie got us and so we got a great product that worked for us!”

“Working with Julie for the past five years has been a wonderful experience. We were introduced through a mutual client and from that moment on our collaborative relationship blossomed. We now work on multiple client engagements together with more in the pipeline. Unlike many marketing professionals, Julie is both a strategist and a storyteller. She’s a consummate professional—smart, thoughtful and always looking out for the best interest of the client. In summary, Julie is a joy to work with! ”

“Julie is one of the most conscientious people I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Her level of commitment to clients, and her patience, creativity and thoughtfulness in helping them reach their objectives are unsurpassed. The care and thoroughness she puts into each individual project, and her ability to continually (and timely) meet and exceed clients’ expectations truly make Julie exceptional.”

“Julie helped me write the business plan for a startup company seeking private equity investment. I had a general idea of what the company was all about, but Julie was able to take those raw ideas and weave them into a coherent and highly-polished document that has been well-received by our investors. Without her assistance my company would not be where it is today.

Working with Julie was something I looked forward to every day. She’s one of the most intelligent and gifted writers I’ve ever met, yet she has such a warm personality I actually enjoyed it when she would destroy or delete whole paragraphs of my writing.

I look forward to every opportunity I have in the future to work with Julie again. I would recommend her highly to anyone seeking someone with experience with business plan development or original written content creation.”

“I have worked with Julie several times and we will continue to do so into the future. Simply put, she is the most effective communicator and writer that we have worked with. As an entrepreneur herself, Julie has a unique ability to ask the right questions, dig in to get the best answers and facilitate a process that allowed us to clearly communicate our company’s vision and value. What we wanted was writing with flair, what we got was not only that, but also creative communications that help bring our company’s story to life. From concept to final deliverables, Julie is fun to work with and willingly shares her expertise to make our company better.”
