What We Do

Blue Chair Communication’s ideal client is looking for a partner to: 1) develop a strategic plan for reaching their target audience and 2) execute the plan on a monthly basis! We have the capacity to manage all of a client’s organic marketing, outreach, and public relations needs. However, we also love creative storytelling projects or developing strategic plans and trainings for clients that may not fall into this “ongoing work” category.

Whether you’re looking for a team to handle all your marketing needs, someone to host a communication training for your staff, or a creative friend to tell your story through a booklet or video, click the “launch you project” button below!

“Ashley [Blue Chair founder] worked for me in Communications and Public Relations in Central Unified School District. She… quickly picked up the vision and mission of the district, knowing exactly how to craft words for press releases, magazine articles, and social media posts, as well as graphics and fliers appropriate for our stakeholders.
                                                             She is not only gifted with words, stories, and innovative ideas, but she also has a keen and creative eye for design that will help a business command the attention of clients and customers who are already bombarded with advertising. She will greatly benefit any individual or business looking to redesign their brand or reach a new client base.”

“Ashley’s, [Blue Chair founder’s] knowledge of social media, fundraising, her ability to organize events, and her strong written and verbal communication skills has been extremely beneficial to our organization. She put all of these skillsets to work in order to launch our first ever student leadership conference that was a huge success.

She has integrity, is responsible, takes initiative, and is hard-working. Along with her undeniable talent, Ashley has always been an absolute joy to work with.”

Lorinda Riffel, Executive Director, Kids On A Mission

“I worked closely with Ashley, [founder of Blue Chair], for over two months. Ashley showed excellent communication skills and her leadership qualities were evident from her first day on the job. Ashley has a deep understanding of how to best coordinate events…

She worked diligently to ensure a briefing on Capitol Hill was successful. She led the association’s efforts to organize catering for the event, design a brochure, send invitations to members of congress, and track RSVPS. In my over ten years working for charitable nonprofits, a trade association, and government agencies, Ashley stands out as a strong leader and, more importantly, as someone with exceptional character.”
