“Zina is truly the full package. She is that rare mix of analytical and creative. She designs, codes, reports, analyzes and documents, but best of all, she researches! She is constantly in the know, before all others, of where industry is going, what will be useful, where to direct new business and where to apply resources. She’s innovative yet pragmatic… a big thinker yet detail oriented… Results AND process oriented. Really, she’s one of a kind and amazingly, gets it all done… fast and furious. Also, she’s a joy to work with. Zina gets my highest recommendation.”
Adrianne Bockhorst, Digital Communications Advisor at Aurora Health Care

“Zina Harrington’s hunger to learn more and stay abreast of new digital technology never seizes to amaze me. She is always reading, researching, and implementing new trends in her digital work, especially in email marketing. She is also persistent that all products that she designs and codes are at a high quality standard. She is a great multi-tasker, and is not afraid of challenges. To summarize, the rare talent and qualities that are sought after in an interactive expert is exactly what Zina has.”
Kate Schmitt, Digital Marketing Coordinator at Kohl’s Department Stores

“I trust Zina from GoToGirl Digital as my own personal brand manager. Her insightful and clever approach to design has brought a cohesive look and feel to all elements of my online presence: Peanut Blossom. Not only does Zina exceed expectations on any design assignment, she also brings extra suggestions on taking the project to the next level. She can’t do “A” without considering the effects of “B, C, and D” and my campaigns have all been the stronger for it.
If you want a simple order-taker, look elsewhere. If you want a true partner and steward of your brand, stop right here. Zina will harness all the cutting-edge interactive tools in her toolkit to build your brand a strong and vibrant online following.”
Tiffany Dahle, Author of Peanut Blossom

“I highly recommend Zina Harrington as a graphic design specialist. She uses creativity to put together the type of email our flower shop needs – colorful, modern and with marketing that goes straight to the point and grabs the attention of the reader.
Zina’s personality is easy to work with, as she enforces necessary deadlines but also can bend easily to help assist with appropriate suggestions when we are at a loss as to how to get our point across. She knows the inner workings of an email… how to write an attention-grabbing title, links to other sites, tie-ins with blogs, etc…. which are all beneficial to the novice client.
If I could hire Zina to work here full time, I would! I think she is an asset to her company and clients, and she has certainly been beneficial to our email marketing success.”
Jane and Marty Loppnow, Owners of Waukesha Floral & Greenhouse, Inc.

“Zina is an incredibly talented designer and it is my pleasure to recommend her. She has the ability to incorporate beauty and function into a design better than many I have met. She is constantly growing as a marketer and designer, eager to learn and implement.”

“We redesigned our website and needed an email template to match the new look and feel. We wanted something that didn’t have an overly corporate feeling. Because Zina designed our original email template we felt comfortable having her do the redesign.
She was able to pull together a design that is energetic, but still coordinates with our company brand. We couldn’t be happier with our email identity and the feedback from customers has been incredibly positive.”
Mark Burrall, Principal at Burrall Associates LLC

“Zina is the best of both worlds – both creative and detail-oriented! I was constantly impressed by her ability to express the agency’s clients’ brands online. I truly enjoyed working with Zina and her abilities are an asset to every organization fortunate enough to be able to work with her.”

“Zina Harrington is an extraordinarily talented individual with vision, creativity, excellent technical skills, and an unparalleled ability to develop and nurture business relationships.
When I first starting working with Zina, our small company had little to no experience in email marketing. Zina patiently walked our team through the process and made sure we understood each step, thus reducing the fear and risk of the new technology. She tamed our wild, brainstormed ideas into an effective campaign that brought in results. Zina brought a wealth of knowledge and ideas to her marketing role. She is extremely knowledgeable on industry rules and standards and made sure we followed best practices. She also understood that we were on a tight budget, and maximized our efforts.
Zina would continually look for ways to communicate more efficiently, and she had an eye for innovation. When asked for feedback, she would consider all aspects and provide a well-thought out and honest opinion. Most importantly, Zina jazzed up our boring copy and created some eye-catching messages with complementary images that resulted in increased response rates (not easy to do in our industry of industrial automation and engineering.)
It’s not everyday you find someone of Zina’s talents on both the technical and creative side, and I am grateful to have partnered with her.”
Heidi Peters, Former Marketing Manager at Doig

“You are not going to find a more reliable, trustworthy, and conscientious person than Zina Harrington. She has a unique skill of bringing out the best in people by encouraging them to work with their skills. She is an avid supporter of teamwork and collaboration and is not intrusive with her own opinions. With all this said, she can even make you laugh!”
Annie Burkhart, Advancement Communications Manager at University School of Milwaukee

“How do you best describe someone like Zina? I would take an initial stab at it by calling her a “digital realist”. Always end-user focused, Zina asks the hard questions and challenges everything before it is put in front of its intended audience. An advocate for the consumer, a voice for the target. Zina is by far one of the most creatively conscious human beings I have had the privilege of working in proximity to in what has been a most robust career. To top it all off – she’s one helluva sweetheart to boot. Anyone with Zina in their employ is a lucky lucky sob.”
Ted Koszuta, Associate Creative Director at Sapient Nitro

“It’s my pleasure to recommend Zina. Working together with Zina is like a breath of fresh air, and anyone who has crossed paths with her would tell you she’s smart, funny, creative, dedicated, analytical, and a damn good email marketer. She has an excellent eye for design, but also deeply understands the limitations and complexity of email as opposed to other marketing channels. I’m continually impressed by her out of the box thinking on how to capitalize on all of the emerging technology out there, and tie it all together. Zina has been a mentor helping me to develop my own skill set. She is a true asset to any organization.”
Mike Kissel, Interactive Marketing Specialist at Data Dog Interactive Marketing
