“Peter helped us clarify our message and differentiate our advanced analytics company. He asked great questions about our business. His work had an immediate impact on helping potential partners better understand what we do through LinkedIn, our website, sales decks, and op-eds for target publications.”

“I have been struggling to get traction in my job search after taking an extended absence to care for three family members. Peter was recommended by someone I trust and he really delivered. We consolidated my four-page resume into one tight page, created a networking document, and rewrote my LinkedIn profile from top to bottom.

He focused first on my positioning—consulting vs. full-time—and the problems I solve for people. He’s a great interviewer and wrote everything in my voice, taking the time to understand the technical aspects of what I do.

This is a challenging job market for older applicants with lots of experience, and the proof of Peter’s skill (and empathy) is that I’ve gotten more inquiries from people in the last week than I had received in the previous few months.”

“After completing the first draft of my book about the challenges WSFS faced in the early 1990s, I wanted feedback from someone I trusted. Peter Osborne was the perfect person. Throughout my time as CEO, he had asked great questions, researched diligently, and helped his readers understand the problems facing our industry. For this project, Peter captured the voice and tone I wanted and pointed out opportunities to improve the structure and add meaningful stories. His advice greatly improved the final product.”

“Peter completely revamped my decades-old resume and LinkedIn profile at a reasonable price during a very difficult time in my career. His work has garnered very positive feedback from talent acquisition professionals. He showed a strong commitment to positioning and was willing to do multiple revisions. He was compassionate and focused on delivering results that [helped me secure my new role in just a few months].”

Use the PESO Model to Tell Stories That Streamline the Sales Process

Customers and prospects have questions. As they move through the funnel — Awareness, Interest, Consideration, and Action — let’s create content that proactively answers those questions, builds trust, and raises your visibility.

Telling stories that address prospect/customer pain points drives leads that convert.

Peter took on the difficult task of synthesizing many MBNA sales presentation materials and customer-facing communications and developing a portal that featured the ‘best of the best.’ His leadership drove a change in behavior among a peer group that was relatively set in their ways and resulted in more consistent brand messaging.”

As a client, I used Peter to help fine-tune and add clarity to our branding statement at Flightdocs. When I left Flightdocs, I called on Peter again to create my personal brand and value statement for my professional career. Within a short time, Peter had refined my LinkedIn profile and moved it from "Fluff" to "Stuff". He painted an effective value and action-oriented picture of me that resonated. The week following the "rebrand", I ended up with three requests for interviews!
