My experience with
Lari Powell Hatley:

Martha Causey,
Board Member
David's Table
We asked Lari Powell Hatley to update David's Table's website. We think our new site is awesome! She captured who we are and what we do - at a price we could afford.

Greg Dye,
Director of Administration/Operations
Duke Lemur Center
Lari Hatley is a truly gifted writer. Her extensive writing background and business savvy allowed her to accurately identify our organization's target markets and create prose that was persuasive and created important connections. Lari thinks strategically before writing a story to determine how best to position an organization's mission and how to move her audience to action. She is simply superb!

Christine Baggerly,
former Director of
Admissions
Chatham Hall
Lari did an amazing job of capturing the intangibles which set the Chatham Hall experience apart from other secondary schools. Her descriptions of the golden teaching moments that only a boarding school experience offers were brilliant. Lari was able to translate Chatham Hall's distinctive qualities to middle school age girls and to their parents. She helped us hone our message to one that was both emotive and authentic at the same time.

I've partnered with Lari for more than a decade. Whether she is creating ad copy for a heavy industrial construction company, a business plan for a credit union, a View Book for a boarding school, or an appeal letter for non-profit, she nails their voice and tells their story. Plus, she brings cookies to the design meetings! Oh, and I get to call her Mom!

Lari Hatley is a master of words, and she is second to none in her ability to tell an organization’s story in an organized, thoughtful, and inviting manner. Mrs. Hatley makes it appear effortless as she captures the essence of an organization's mission and then carefully crafts a narrative that compels her reader to invest liberally. She is among the most gifted writers I have encountered, and her gentle, kind spirit make her an endearing and admirably suited partner for success
