Case Study:
Michael H. Smith, Ph. D. & Associates
Michael H. Smith is an Oakland-based management consultant specializing in workplace conflict management resolution. Although he had established his firm over 24 years as experts in resolving organizational conflicts and improving workplace productivity, he realized the need to more clearly articulate a focused client niche.
Since 2007, Get The Word Out helped Smith reinforce his credentials in key target markets with a particular focus on the legal and accounting industry. Drawing from years of working within professional services firms, our approach centered on showcasing Smith’s expertise through published articles and webinars aimed at the legal sector.
