“Tara is an absolute pleasure to work with because she is an exceptional person all around. A fearless, uplifting personality with passion and drive like no other. I have every confidence that Tara will continue to go far, creating solid partnerships along the way.”

— Jeana S worked directly with Tara at Trippin’ with Tara

“Working with Tara was an absolute delight. All communications were clear and to the point prior to travel, so I never felt like I didn’t know what was going on. Itineraries upon arrival were always well thought out and provided me with lots of talking points for my blog and others I write on. Tara met every need of those traveling in our group so that they felt they were at a home away from home. I wish I could work with her on every media trip.”

— Candace Derickx, was with another company when working with Tara at Trippin’ with Tara

“Tara has shown incredible talent as she dove into the turbulent, ever-changing waters of social media. As I’ve worked with her, she proved to be a leader in her marketing efforts. It was exciting to see her creativity first hand as she developed an impressive social media plan for Global Resort Homes along with beginning her own Trippin’ with Tara blog. I look forward to seeing her continue to evolve in all the new media channels that keep coming at us, a journey for which she is well-equipped and seems to enjoy passionately!”

— Chris Brumbaugh, was with another company when working with Tara at Trippin’ with Tara

“Tara is a top professional in the area of using social media and blogs for marketing and public relations. She is NOT a Facebook expert; she is a TOTAL social media and blogging expert. I directed and photographed a short film for her in 2013. Tara masterfully dissected the short into clips and teasers, trailers, and soundbites and distributed them through her blogs and social media outlets.

Using these clips and a slew of photographs, Tara cleverly promoted our film for a full month before its release. There is a shortlist of internet marketing professionals on the bleeding edge of this new advertising method, and Tara is leading this group. There are few people who have as deep an understanding of how to utilize websites and YouTube, social media, and blogging to drive sales as does Tara. Yes, I recommend Tara. Big NYC advertising firms are trying to figure out what Tara is achieving today!”
