Privé Porter

Miami-based authentic luxury handbag reseller took the fashion lovers world by storm with the ability to find rare and highly coveted pieces. After giving the brand a sophisticated, high-end, and slightly edgy look, Privé Porter got its fair share of attention with a Birkin boat in 2015, a pop-up store in Miami's Brickell Center in 2020, celebrity custom requests, and owner and founder Michelle Berk featured on the cover of Forbes France in 2021.

FROM WOMEN FOUNDERS

"I've finished the course, and wow! Thank you for doing what you do! I feel so much more confident going into this phase of my life where I want to build a brand/true business for myself as a writer. It's like you've helped to lift a fog, and now I can see more clearly the steps I need to take next as well as the goals I'd like to achieve as I progress. When I find myself stressing about the state of entrepreneurship, business, or gender inequality in our world today, I'm comforted knowing people like you are working to create a healthier, happier, and fairer environment in which women can thrive and achieve their dreams."

Adrianna N., Phoenix AZ

“Working with Erika is unlike any branding experience I’ve had before - she doesn’t just design a beautiful brand, she uncovers who you actually are and builds everything from there. Through her method, I clarified my long-term vision, identified my ideal audience, and finally felt like my brand tells the true story of my work. After more than thirty years of knowing her, I can say without hesitation: she has a rare gift for helping women discover what they didn’t even know they had in them.”

Dr. Nancy Yen Shipley, Form & Function Orthopedics

"I came to Erika thinking maybe I needed a website, and that's it. But through the strategy sessions, branding, website and materials designs,  I realized I needed so much more. It wasn't just the pieces Erika created for me, it was having an ally who could help me through the process of starting something totally new on my own. I couldn't have done this without her helping me find my voice."

Dr. Andrea Matsumura, Sleep Physician

"I was recommended to Erika by a friend who had consulted with her and said she was 'simply the best', without a doubt no truer words have ever been spoken. Erika invests far more time into the why, who and how of what makes YOU you than anyone else in her business sector. There were so many moments over our 6 months working together that I was moved beyond words at her ability to see me and my vision and bring it to life through design. Without a doubt, Erika is the asset of a lifetime to build a company, a brand and a business to span lifetimes."

Jessica Gylsen, The Dazzling Concierge

"In the past six months, I have invested in countless online classes and programs. The Branding Masterclass was quite simply the most effective experience I have had – and that is exactly why: because it is an experience. This class is not simply a tool; it reaches far beyond strategies and tactics (which of course are phenomenal with an expert leader like Erika). Erika, I can’t thank you enough for the energy and wisdom you are sharing – you are literally changing lives."

Maris D., Columbus OH

"As a one-person marketing team in a start-up, Erika is not only a sophisticated brand, graphic, and UX designer, but she’s also my sidekick marketing strategist, brainstorm partner, and social media adviser. She brings creativity, insight, and a positive outlook to every project, and her ability to translate ideas into compelling visuals is unmatched. On top of all that, she’s such a thoughtful, lovely person to work with. I'm so lucky to have her on my side!"

Leah Morgan, Head of Marketing, Qvin

"I enjoyed the whole trip! Every day had a lot to offer and was well balanced with workshops and activities. I loved not knowing all the details of the places we visited. To me it added more magic to the experience. Coming in not knowing any of the ladies made me a bit nervous at first. I believe Erika did an amazing job selecting the candidates. Everyone was amazing, kind, supportive and had a lot to offer in terms of business and personal experiences. The place we stayed at was perfect. It felt like home and the food was delicious. There was a great level of attention to detail that elevated the experience. I am so grateful to have been part of this and to all the amazing connections I made. I was looking forward to being part of the Project Soar volunteering opportunity and I think that was an important part of the retreat. Thank you!!"

Oula Siblini, OU LA

"I have to tell you, I was always dying to come back and learn more even with having a 7 month old and an ever growing TO DO list. Your passion and knowledge kept pulling me back. I am truly so grateful and will recommend this course to anyone I know wanting to start something new. I feel so energized and excited for what is to come. I am so grateful for all the work and dedication you put into it because out of everything I have done to get prepared to launch my own business, I have to say this course gave me so much joy and excitement and it will have a lasting impact on me."

Maria M., Dallas TX
