Working with Lori Frisher on our ADA compliance and disability awareness training has been game changing for our company - Clayton Members Club and Hotel. Lori not only came to us with an astounding amount of information, resources and expert guidance, she is truly the most joyful and positively infectious person.
 Lori made it her mission to know each and every one of our staff here at Clayton (over 100 people!) and I cannot count the number of times I have personally been thanked for bringing the gift of Lori to our company.
Rachel Smith
Partner Clayton Member’s Club and Hotel
Lori is a motivated, detail-oriented individual who works as hard as anyone I know for her clients. She is extremely creative and is able to see and forge strategic partnerships for the mutual benefit of all involved. Lori also knows exactly what it takes to communicate a client's message, both for the client and, just as importantly, to the client's target audience. A talented business woman with a heart!
Max Gomez
Media Production, Consultant and Talent
Trying to pick the top three attributes for Lori is difficult, since she has consistently been one of the most proficient and trustworthy people I've ever done business with! Her dedication to make everything right, in a first class way, even if she needed to roll up her own sleeves is something that more people need these days in the workforce. Her creativity and passion are above and beyond what you might expect. She is truly a gift to any project or vision you may have!

Keynote Speaker, Founder of FREEDOM TEAM of Wounded Vets
Lori Frisher is an out of the box creative individual who will bring that same mantra to Ready or Not! Media. I have been fortunate to strategically collaborate with Lori during the 2000 Sydney Paralympic Games while she worked at We Media. Lori and We Media raised the bar for not only the United States Association of Blind Athletes but also Paralympic athletes by promoting their abilities around the world.

* Empathy, or the ability [for a business] to understand and share the feelings of [its customer], is an important (yet overlooked) business superpower. In 2013, a prominent market research firm found emotionally engaged customers to have a 306% greater lifetime value (ROI), over those who are not emotionally engaged.
