About Anne and April:
Anne Candido and April Martini are the co-founders of Forthright People, an “On-Demand” Branding and Marketing Agency focused on helping businesses of all sizes quickly capture the hearts of their customers without breaking the bank. And by “all sizes” they mean from an individual’s Personal Brand to multi-million dollar corporations. They do this by meeting businesses where they are through their model of “Coach – Train – Do”. This “On-Demand” nature lets businesses control their investment in time, money, and deliverables while maintaining agility in this dynamic world. And this enables quality work that has immediate business impact while at the same time building capability in the people who are leading and delivering the work. Their commitment is to leverage their 35+ years of experience in the corporate, agency, and entrepreneurial worlds to always be of service in enabling businesses to become savvier brand builders and marketers while building the teams and infrastructure to support them.
