I have worked with Christine Rambo for more than five years as the Chair of the Economic Development Committee and Vice President of the Jackson Parish Police Jury (county government). Together we worked toward assembling land and certifying an industrial site in our parish (county). Christine is one of the most dedicated economic developers I could ever have worked with. Her knowledge and work ethics are outstanding.

Women for Sobriety was in need of a total rebrand and marketing plan for our non-profit. Christine and all her staff at Upsize Marketing Strategies were knowledgeable, professional, compassionate and creative! Their knowledge of marketing and the non-profit sector is unparalleled. I appreciated their thoroughness and patience as we went through this process for the first time ever. Additionally, we used them to create new marketing collateral for us as well, therefore, we cannot recommend them enough for their skill and talent!
