Our task was to bring the industries most talented speakers together for our first Annual Licensing Summit. We were looking for someone who had a deep knowledge of the packaging industry and trends and someone who could communicate to our partners the importance of building brand equity through product packaging design.

As an inventor, I was amazed at the complexity and challenges of launching my very first product. I resolved to only surround myself with the very best experts in their field. We had a compelling product. We had orders. We were in a hurry. But our packaging was late. JoAnn quickly grasped our challenge: how to take our existing packaging and turn it into outstanding packaging! Her comments came back lightning-fast and with a recommended expert to complete the job. I highly recommend her service. -- Patrick Raymond, President & CEO, ShowerBow
