‘I recently had the pleasure of joining Shandel on a podcast, and it was an experience that genuinely stood out.

From the outset, she was incredibly well prepared, not just in terms of the topic, but in how thoughtfully she shaped the conversation. She struck that rare balance of being structured while still allowing space for a natural, engaging discussion.

What I appreciated most was how she made the whole experience feel easy and comfortable. Her style puts you at ease quickly, which brings out a more authentic and insightful conversation something not every host can do.

Shandel clearly knows her craft. Her depth of knowledge across marketing and her ability to connect ideas in a meaningful way really comes through. She asks smart, considered questions and listens just as well as she speaks – a powerful combination.

Beyond that, she’s simply a great person to work with, professional, warm, and genuinely invested in creating value through what she does.

If you get the opportunity to collaborate with Shandel, take it. She’s the kind of marketer and host who elevates the people and conversations around her.

Highly recommend.’

Dimi Bartolillo, Head of Marketing and Brand: Helia

‘I recently had the pleasure of doing my first-ever podcast with Shandel for her Ceretivity with Shandel podcast.

Shandel talked me through the process in advance, explained what she was wanting to achieve and gave me good time to plan the key messages in advance. Throughout the discussion – and it really just felt like two friends discussing business – it was easy and comfortable.

Shandel made the whole process easy and enjoyable. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone who is interested in participating in Ceretivity with Shandel.’

Charles Batt, Owner: MBE Paramatta and Agility Print

‘I had the pleasure to first work with Shandel years ago, commenting on one of her stories for the media. She was great at capturing and simplifying a complex story, helping more people to understand and connect with it. More importantly, she was great at helping me to best share my story, so it landed with impact.

I recently got to work with her again and appreciated her desire to pull her marketing and my culture worlds closer together to find the stories that connect both.

Shandel’s ability to find the story to connect with her audience always stands out.’

Deepak Singh, Founder: Mission and Rhythm, Just Sing Out, and People Stack

‘I could not rate Shandel high enough! In our nearly 2 years of working together her professionalism, attention to detail, content expertise and account management had excelled any of my expectations. She goes [above] and beyond to ensure we have the necessary support, and is always a pleasure to have a chat with!’

Victoria Gretton, Commercial Marketing at ANZ

‘I’ve been fortunate to work with Shandel on her podcast [HR Leader] and some written media together. She’s a delight to work with, she is knowledgeable on the subject matter, took time to get to know me and our business and has created some wonderful content that’s helped us grow our reach and brand awareness. I would love to continue working with Shandel on future content.’

Helena Turpin, Co-founder at GoFIGR

‘I commissioned Shandel to provide a number of articles/communication for the Parramatta Chamber of Commerce to appear on websites and in local papers. With a minimum of direction Shandel produced excellent and informative articles which were well researched. I would have no hesitation in working with Shandel again in the future.’
