ARLI LIMA @arlisappetite

“Heidi at HNS is a professional in the events and marketing scene in Baltimore. It’s rare that you come across such a great personality with this proficiency. I’ve attended several events that they have invited me to, and I was amazed each time at the organization and execution they poured into the event. I am always particularly impressed by their ability to bring together different groups in Baltimore with different interests, and we always have a great time—and they do it effortlessly. I was particularly impressed with their Gordon Ramsay restaurant opening event. They invited foodies, fashion bloggers, local personalities and politicians, and everyone was blown away by the celebration.”

In particular, Heidi’s work on the opening of South Point in Port Covington was one of our most successful events to date, bringing in hundreds of engaged, diverse people from all over Baltimore. She ensured that key influencers and stakeholders were introduced to the amazing space in the best way possible, assisting with the highest-quality experience and entertainment from beginning to end. The social engagement that we saw from that event boosted our audience and created great impact in our digital outreach. One of the hardest-working people in the business, and always a pleasure!”

DAVID SCHWARTZ

“My partners and I decided to stage, produce and promote Baltimore’s first-ever New Orleans Jazz North Festival at GAME. We had never promoted a show together, however, zealous and faithful blind determination and the proper team can do wonders! We had a finite, fleetingly short period of time to promote the event: Enter Heidi of HNS. We pulled our collective energies, knowledge and passion together and committed to making this work. We had no conventional advertising budget. None. Instead, we had Heidi. Heidi designed a complete social media campaign tailored to fit the goals and notified anybody and everybody in the Baltimore-Washington market associated with jazz, in other words, blanketed the market about our event to make it work. The harder the challenge, the more determined and committed Heidi worked. She stops at nothing and is a tireless worker. We are proud to report our event was an unequivocal success. I am on record as saying that if not for Heidi we would have never sold the amount of advance tickets nor would we have had the tremendous walk-up nor would be thinking of putting on another jazz concert. She is the best at social publicity. She is a Pro’s Pro.”

As a musician, I really appreciate how easy they make the event for us. They provide sound and a tech for the event, run sound checks, and do a great job promoting the event for us. The shows are always filled with a listening audience and there is always an array of different talents. You never know who you will see- a solo acoustic artist, a band, an R&B performer, or all the above. It’s always a great mixture of talents, and no two shows are the same. Aside from the great shows, they are always friendly, professional, quick to respond if any of the bands have any questions, and of course at every show cheering us on. I have very much enjoyed working with HNS in the past, and I look forward to working with them again in the near future.”

“I want to send my deep thanks to Helene & Heidi at HNS for your dedicated, creative work in planning our Annual Soiree for Play. It was a phenomenal night. Our major financial sponsors enjoyed themselves & our board was impressed. A few months ago, things seemed bleak. I was completely stuck for options this past August with no dedicated staff to plan the event and very little preparatory work completed. You jumped into action & worked tirelessly and cheerfully on a million-plus details, secured discounted vendor services, brought on food and drink sponsors, arranged for a talented graphic designer with quick turnaround and reached out to media sponsors. The transformation of the space was stunning. Your vision for the event came beautifully to life!”

They suggested a new club opening with many perks, and assurance of an unforgettable night- and they were right! I will always remember that birthday as being well thought-out, well -executed, and a great time for all! The club opening was fantastic, and HNS was right there when I needed them throughout the event and followed up with me afterward. I received nothing but outstanding comments from those who attended.”

“Thank you for the best Saturday night out at Red Maple. We have never had so much fun in Baltimore. All my friends really enjoyed the party!!!!!”

CHRISTOPHER CUMMINGS

“I am privileged to have known Heidi from HNS since 2007. Since then, I’ve watched her firm grow in stature, relied on her as her client for where to go and what to do in town, and saw her spin off another firm this year. I highly admire her impact and positive contribution to social causes, her entrepreneurship, and her leadership and prowess in Baltimore’s event planning and promotion industry. She has one of the best souls in this town, an influential leader, advocate for what’s right, and is admired and respected by many in the Baltimore business and social communities. As I raise my daughter to be a good person and contributor to society, and as I myself consider what excellence in entrepreneurship and community advocacy looks like, I hold up and present Heidi as our role model.”
