Testimonials

I was introduced to Joanne by a friend through email. I had written a book that I wanted to get published, but the book was choppy and needed a grammatical review and editing. I had tried Fiverr, but I had a bad experience and lost two months working with someone who had no clue what was needed. I was then introduced to Joanne. As one might expect, I was a bit apprehensive about working with someone I did not know again. Joanne was a pleasure to work with. I explained to her what I thought was wrong and how I wanted my book to flow. She listened, asked appropriate questions, and made me feel comfortable about our working arrangement. She met her deadlines and her updates to my book were exactly what were needed. By the time we were done, the book was ready to be published. More importantly, I was very pleased with the book we created together.

I wanted to take a moment to acknowledge Joanne and her incredible support with her projects. I recently needed some assistance with my own personal story that I was sharing with a larger audience. The timeliness, assistance, and care that she put into the project was really appreciated. She is very easy to work with and has great recommendations. Joanne is passionate about her work and her customer service and delivery are excellent. I received great feedback on the project. I highly recommend Colella Communications!

Joanne gave me that personal communication in a professional manner. Colella Communications gave premium service for a very reasonable price. I would be happy to work with her again and recommend her services to anyone! Thanks for the great job!

I am a small business owner and hired Joanne to create email campaigns for me, segmenting the various categories of customers I represent. She was professional, timely, and the emails were just what I requested. Joanne has the experience to help you and your business find its voice. I highly recommend Joanne and Colella Communications.

Joanne brings passion and professionalism to her work. Her talents lie in her ability to be the editor who allows the author’s work to shine; the writer who does meticulous research for her superbly written articles; the photographer who captures your event just so and matches it with a beautifully detailed press release. Joanne’s attention to detail, adherence to deadlines, and communication with her clients during projects are only a few of the reasons why we are so happy to work with Colella Communications for our public relations needs.

Joanne has a passion for both writing and learning, making her an exemplary freelance writer. Better yet, she is a team player who takes time to really understand the organizations she writes for. For a number of years now, she has been the chief editor of the Holiday Express yearbook. Thanks to her research and attention to detail, each issue truly captures our organization’s mission.

Joanne Colella is an extremely good writer. She weaves together descriptive and informative words, using correct grammar and a flowing syntax. Joanne is great with opening the reader’s senses, allowing them to indulge in imagination or learn through association about the subject she has chosen to write about. In addition to being a talented writer, she is best at being her own critic, proofreader, and editor, reading and re-reading several times, checking and perfecting before displaying her work to anyone. Joanne is a great source who always stays informed with all that is happening in our community. I have worked with her on a few different projects and she has always exceeded my expectations. She is organized, works well under pressure, and meets all deadlines. She is smart and overall a sweet person who is easy to get along and work with. I highly recommend Joanne and her company Colella Communications.

Twenty-five years ago, the Holmdel Police Department started a Neighborhood Watch Program. One of the first residents to get involved was Joanne Colella. She helped the program grow, and through her writing talents, kept the members of her group informed of what was happening in their community. Through the years, Joanne has attended our Neighborhood Watch Meetings and events and has always written accurate, interesting, and factual articles. We are fortunate to have such a talented and passionate “historian” in our town. She asks appropriate questions and gives her readers a clear picture of what is going on.

Joanne is thorough and detailed, listens openly, communicates clearly, and does it all professionally. In short, she’s a pleasure to work with.

Thank you for the wonderful article about our church’s ribbon cutting for our new Fellowship Hall. It was beautifully written – and included all we hoped for. We really appreciate your help.

I have worked with Joanne Colella for over twenty years. She is the utmost professional. She is a very talented writer who takes personal pride in each subject she covers. Her passion for writing is evident in the time and care she takes to provide the descriptive details necessary to purvey her topic accurately and honestly. I highly recommend her for your next writing project. You won’t be disappointed.

Thanks so much for doing such a nice article for us! Great to read an article so well-written!

On behalf of Jersey Shore Chinese School, I am writing this email to express our gratitude for your visiting the JSCS Chinese New Year celebration. I have just read your article in the magazine. It was a fantastic article. Thank you so much for reporting this.

If you hear a loud sigh of relief, it’s coming from Lunch Break. On behalf of the volunteers, staff, our executive director Gwendolyn Love, our board of trustees, and especially our guests and families in need, I am writing to thank you for your contribution to an amazing annual Foodstock event. When we asked people who brought food to the event how they found about Foodstock, everyone said they read about it, so you were part of our incredible success. Again, we thank you very much. Couldn’t have done it without you.

I’ve been meaning to write to tell you that when I received my magazine in my mailbox last month, my eyes lit up at seeing the Bikers Against Bullying story on your cover and the great spread you did on the inside. On behalf of Heroes and Cool Kids, we are all extremely appreciative that you published the event in such a big way, as it will only help get the message out about what a great program this is. Once again, thank you, thank you, thank you!

Joanne, you are unbelievable, not to mention what a unbelievably talented writer you are! How can I express to you how appreciative I am for this beautiful article you wrote? You are too kind to take the time and effort to highlight the salon, Wig Warriors, and me! I am honored and humbled by your kind words and acknowledgements.

OMG!! That article was so beautiful. You certainly have a gift for writing. It got me all teared up. Thank you for representing us so beautifully. I am very grateful to you. Thank you again.

Joanne is not only a master of words, but a joy to work with. Her content writing and editing abilities are second to none. Whether she is editing documents, writing content, or publishing press releases, her work is perfect.

Joanne is an amazing writer, editor, creative ... I don't know how many more words I can use! She has been a great help to me over the last 19 years and although she will only be a phone call or e-mail away, I will miss the opportunity to have her so close! Whatever she says she can do, she will do with talent and gusto and skill! I highly recommend her!

Joanne Colella, from Colella Communications, was wonderful to work with. My husband had written a manuscript based on his many years in law enforcement, which had been through multiple rewrites. Dennis finally hired Joanne for the final step. She assured him that his final draft would be completely free of grammatical errors. She corrected his subject-verb agreement problems, his improper punctuation usage, and typographical errors, all without changing the integrity of his story. She forwarded her corrections in a timely fashion and discussed the “why” behind her changes, allowing Dennis to feel that he was part of the process. In the end, he loved his final draft with all the changes made. Joanne was professional, competent, and confident in her ability to make the book even better. Dennis would highly recommend Colella Communications for your editing and proofreading services.
