Marisa Smith

“Marisa’s guidance has been instrumental in our success with implementing EOS® at Total Security Solutions. Before we got started with EOS, we were doing well, but I was becoming a bottleneck to our growth.

After implementing EOS throughout the entire organization, we’re in a really great place. I have a strong leadership team aligned to our vision with clear accountability, our culture is stronger than ever, and I've gotten my life back!”

Jim Richards, Total Security Solutions

“By following EOS® we have been able to completely restructure our team, enforce accountability, and finally have predictable growth. I’m positive that utilizing this process, we are ready for anything.

Marisa has been a critical part of this process, helping us along the way to focus on the real and most important issues and find barriers we didn’t know existed. I am so grateful for this process and for her as we continue on our journey.”

Jennifer Ferris, Federated Service Solutions

“Working with Marisa has become a necessity. It’s hard to get out of your own way and having an Implementer with real-world experience is extremely valuable.

Before starting the EOS® Journey, we were struggling with everything. Now that we have become so much better at this process, nothing seems impossible. Frankly, I don’t know how anyone operates a business without EOS and a Professional Implementer.”

Scott Aubuchon, Rejuv Ave Skin Spa

“While the EOS system brilliantly connects all the pieces of the business puzzle, we would not be as far along as we are without Marisa’s direction and guidance.

This process has been revitalizing for our company. We now have clear accountability, goals, and processes that have allowed us to optimize our time and our resources. Our culture and lifestyles are changing in ways that felt impossible just one year ago.”

Melissa Kennedy, Meadowlark Builders

“Before we had the EOS tools in place daily operations were a bit chaotic and it was hard to maintain accountability. As we developed our accountability chart and held regular L10 meetings the chaos was replaced with order.

Prior to implementing EOS, I could never truly take time off because I always worried that I wouldn’t have a company when I got back. Now I’m happy to say that I’m able to go on vacation and have confidence that my team has everything under control.”

Michael Rickabaugh, Livonia Tool & Laser

“Working with Marisa has been an absolute pleasure. She holds us accountable to what we say we’ll do, she is honest with us about how we can improve, and most of all she has fun with us. Our EOS® journey has been hard at times to keep to it, but it pays off.

EOS has been game changing for our team and company. Creating structure, routine, accountability, and building leadership. A company is much stronger with a capable team. We are grateful for all that Marisa has taught us.”

Leah Konrady, Konrady Plastics

“With our rapid growth at Blue Chip Partners, EOS® seemed like a logical fit for enhancing our structure and accountability. However, selecting the right EOS Implementer was a bit more subjective and required due diligence.

We are thrilled we chose Marisa to guide our journey. She truly understands how to keep our management team focused, on task and organized. Marisa’s customized implementation of EOS at Blue Chip Partners has been a game changer for our business.”

Daniel Seder, Blue Chip Partners

“Our leadership team felt we had reached a ceiling in our 17-year-old company, and were looking for ways to break through a variety of seemingly impenetrable barriers. We discovered EOS on our own and spent a year reading books and processing ways to implement this system.

It wasn’t until we started working with Marisa that the transformation began. Marisa felt like a trusted member of the team from the beginning. With her deep expertise in EOS implementation, we began gaining traction almost immediately.”

Rio Vetter, Neuronexus

“Three years ago, we bought out our business partner who had been running the daily operations of our company. When we took over management, we found we’d been left with a chaotic mess and unhappy, disgruntled managers and employees. There were so many fires to put out, we hardly knew where to start.

Then we found Marisa and EOS®. Using EOS tools and philosophies, we have rebuilt our company, become consistently profitable, and everyone in the company is engaged, excited and rowing in the right direction. We are so excited about our future and are EOS-ers for life!”

Tonia Rose, Ann Arbor Arms

“We started working with Marisa in 2019 before the pandemic happened, and we couldn’t have survived 2020 without Marisa and EOS®. The guidance Marisa gave us to help pivot and navigate through the challenging times of 2020 was unmatched.

We have added 6 new employees since starting with EOS and have systems and strategic L10 meetings that help us stay on track for our quarterly and yearly goals. We look forward to further growth and expansion all due to working with EOS and Marisa.”

Meko Price, Glo Skin Spa

“Marisa’s experience and independent guidance have been the missing pieces for our company. Her assistance in uncovering and solving key issues and her expertise in teaching us how to use the EOS tools and system have enabled us to gain traction.

Before meeting Marisa and implementing EOS, we rarely identified the core issues and struggled with proper implementation to address them. Today, we have a clear path and the tools to navigate and finalize implementation.”

Tony Mazzali, CG Financial Services

“EOS has brought clarity to the leadership team and the entire company about where we came from, what we have accomplished, and where we are heading.

Since adopting EOS and bringing Marisa on as our Implementer, we have grown in revenue each year, and more importantly, we have grown the bottom line.

It is easily one of the two most impactful decisions we have ever made for the business, and I hate to imagine where we would be if we hadn’t made that leap.”

Bill Burkhardt Jr., Four Seasons Kanga Roof

“Marisa has been a vital resource and partner for Güd Marketing as our EOS coach for over five years. Her expertise, guidance, and support have been invaluable as we’ve grown and navigated new challenges within our agency.

Her commitment to our success is evident in every interaction with our team. We genuinely look forward to our quarterly meetings with Marisa. She helps ensure that our leadership team is aligned, focused, and motivated for the quarter ahead.”

Debbie Horak, Güd Marketing

“Before implementing EOS with Marisa, we struggled to establish routines and processes to help us stay on track. With EOS, we now have a scalable system that promotes and supports growth for the company and our people.

Marisa’s ability to listen and guide us helped create clarity for the team and identify action steps, allowing us to be proactive vs reactive.”
