Mike brought a wealth of board experience to the Saskatchewan Professional Marketing Association (SPMA). I often relied on Mike for advice when it came to the proper operation and structure of a governing board. Mike is a strong community builder - His help was of great benefit regarding the formation and growth of the SPMA during it's formative years.

Michael Klein has been a great asset to my medical practice. He has provided expert advise and assistance in helping me communicate in the world of social media - to my referral base and patients alike. Mike has been very professional to deal with and has an abundance of creative ideas. I have found Mike to be a highly effective strategic planner and has completed all projects on time with excellent results. I look forward to continuing to work with Mike, and I would recommend him highly.

Mike has worked on our strategic marketing development, client mentorship and delivers key presentations at conferences and to clients. His strategies increased our direct leads and taught us how to market through social media. He continues to impress his audiences with his ability to offer great advice; Mike takes the time to understand his client, their customer and works with them to strategize a successful social media campaign. He not only understands the business he works with, he understands their community. His presentations are truly entertaining and impacting. I would recommend Mike to any business that is looking to new or expanded marketing strategies.

I worked with Mike Klein at the University of Saskatchewan. As a Senior Communications Specialist, Mike provided valuable consulting services to the colleges and schools across campus. I found him to be creative, hard working, trusting and innovative. He understands business communications and stays current of trends in website development, inbound marketing and social media management. He is a leader in his profession and is sought after to facilitated educational sessions at conferences and workshops. He is a true team player and knows how to get the job done. I heartily recommend Mike and would be only too happy to work with him again.

I have been mentored by Mike Klein for a couple of years. A large part of my success in my job can be directly attributed to Mike. His extensive knowledge, patience and good humor have made it possible for me to make my role of Communications for the Bookstore an outstanding success.

I am but one of many Campus Communicators and Mike has worked with all of us. I am pretty sure it is like herding cats, but Mike is certainly up to the task. I can and will strongly recommend Mike Klein in his role as a strategist, communicator and mentor to many. He would be an asset to any employer.
