Working with Alison Shuman from Alison Shuman Media was an excellent experience. She supported us in bringing our existing site into the NationBuilder platform and helped us think through exciting and creative ways to use its tools to grow our community. With her guidance we were able to set up features that allow us to recruit volunteers, receive donations, launch events, run campaigns, and more.
One of the most valuable aspects of working with Alison was her deep knowledge of the NationBuilder platform and her creative approach to problem solving. NationBuilder has its limitations, and Alison helped us find smart and effective ways to work within those while still creating something that felt dynamic and tailored to our needs.

Given the sensitive nature of our domestic violence work and the timing of our rebrand, our key priorities for the new website were to make it cutting-edge for professionals, engaging for supporters, and easy to navigate for survivors and community members of all electronic literacy levels. Alison’s design not only met these needs and aligned with the launch of our rebrand but also allowed for future expansion as our organization grows its online presence. Her willingness to bring our ideas for new interactive pages and features to life has been invaluable. Her creativity and ongoing assistance truly demonstrate her commitment to her clients. With her help, we now have a website that we’re proud of, one that expands our reach to communities in ways we never thought possible.

Alison Shuman has been our website guru since 2016 and is the most reliable, knowledgeable, professional, and talented person for the job. I am always impressed by her quick fixes to any problem that arises and in her solutions to our inquiries. Alison recently redesigned our website and did a phenomenal job. Her creativity stands out on every page. The dropdown menus that she created are user-friendly and the pages are clear and concise.
