“The First Click is an extremely professional and thorough company. Their knowledge and expertise gets you to a level of freedom in your business that allows you to be hands-on and personal, but also enjoy life as a business owner. I would recommend this company to anyone who is trying to get to the next level of business where they can have a successful balance of life and work. After 5 minutes with Sami, I was learning and making plans towards bettering my business.”
– Kristy Starr, Beers & Business Cards
"Sami is a great teacher! I recently did one of her online courses and I enjoyed how easy she made it. The overwhelm was totally removed by her ability to break it down into smaller, understandable steps! She creates worksheets to guide you and everything is presented in a simple, easy to follow format. Sami makes thing easy for busy professionals, by teaching how to organize, by breaking down the many tasks into smaller tasks and by creating planning templates that are actually executable. Great job!!"

“I can’t believe how much I learned in five days. As a small nonprofit, learning best practices about online fundraising sounds like a insurmountable task at times when the daily activities of serving clients seems more pressing. It is very important to share your story (and therefore encourage giving) in an effective way, which requires planning. After the four-day summit, our organization has a better grasp on what next steps for fundraising and were given many tools and suggestions to more effectively tell our story. It was definitely worth it to clear my schedule to be able to attend. I came away with action steps that we will take over this next year.”
- Lorraine Meyer -Founder & Executive Director of A Friend 4U
“The Online Fundraising Virtual Summit was 4 information packed days of incredible speakers. The summit was: INFORMATIONAL – so much great content INSPIRATIONAL – we can do MORE! ENABLING – useful tools and processes were made available ENGAGING – interaction with the speakers was easy * ACTION-ORIENTED – I walked away with so much to do that will make our organization truly successful. Just as important was recognition that we were doing great things and the advice to PRIORITIZE and FOCUS – taking it one step at a time and not be overwhelmed. Thanks to the organizer – Sami! I’m looking forward to the next one.”
