Thank you for your trust
Maria is an outstanding Personal Branding Strategist. But that title does no justice to her breadth and quality of service. She has been instrumental in helping me develop, grow and market my brand. She is truly a trusted advisor who goes above and beyond to ensure your success.
Maria isn’t just a speaker manager; she’s a career magician, personal mentor, and, on occasion, a spontaneous therapist all rolled into one. With her guidance, my professional journey was not just about grabbing the mic, but also about growth, laughter, and some truly unforgettable backstage pep talks. If you ever have the chance to work with her, grab it – and keep an eye on her, this woman’s entrepreneurial spirit and eye for opportunities knows no limits!
Maria Papacosta is an exceptional Strategist for the top experts and thought leaders. Maria adds even more value to her clients by using mastery as a Presence & Impact Coach. This is a privilege to work with Maria.
One of the most refreshing feelings to experience, especially in times of crisis and uncertainty, is the one of pure kindness. Met Maria Papacosta not a long time ago remotely through our network. She has been surprising me ever since with her kindness and generosity which are way over and above from what her professional role includes. Maria, people like you are blessed with the gift of energizing everyone around them and spreading inspiration. Keep up the amazing work!
The Fast Track Strategy Session was eye-opening, informative, and inspiring. It helped me define my personal brand with clarity and passion!
Maria is the consummate professional who I trust fully because she consistently has exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend MSC Bureau and their strategy process to anyone seeking to elevate their game.
If there was a “Genie” for speakers and consultants, its bottle would say MSC Bureau. These guys are ridiculously good at what they do and at the same time, the most kind and generous people you will ever meet. If you are a speaker, a consultant or anyone who wants to build a brand out of yourself, you can’t afford not to work with them.
Maria’s deep knowledge and many years of experience in the speaking industry along with her marketing expertise and coaching skills make her one of a kind. She works with professionalism, integrity and mindfulness and always delivers extra value to her clients.
