Gabby was brought on board to help with the development an internal communications plan to support our disaster work. She worked closely with the team and I, facilitating our discussions, bringing ideas to the table yet keeping us grounded. She listened to our thoughts and concerns, pushed us to think beyond the status quo, and stayed with us thru many delays and changes in team members. Finally, she collected all the data and ideas and put them in a single document with great flow, and much detail. She also understood the needs of the audience to whom we were socializing the plan – and supported summary documents for multiple audiences. The program took several months to develop and complete – with multiple reviews by varied stakeholders – but Gabby hung in there with the team and the final product has been a great success. It is a living document, but without her engagement, we would have nothing to build upon!

Gabby (Breakthrough Communications) was instrumental in leading and facilitating our management team with the repositioning of our 30+ year company to capitalize on the evolution of the brand, while maintaining the value and trust we had built with our clients. She brought great insights and asked the right questions that helped us develop a stronger framework to build our business in fast changing marketplace. It is incredibly challenging repositioning a company, but Gabby made the process much easier and enjoyable with her inclusive, professional and honest approach

Gabby is exceptional. Having worked with her on a couple projects now, we consider Gabby a valuable and reliable partner. Gabby’s industry knowledge, coupled with her creative and insightful ideas, has led to a much stronger brand for I.E. Canada. Her ideas are always dead on, and she is always willing to provide advice and guidance as we move forward with implementation. Gabby has a genuine interest in our business and is as vested in achieving our goals as we are.

I have known Gabby and worked with her throughout the past 20 years. Our relationship began when she was the VP at the PR AOR for my former company. There she forged a strategic partnership to assist in the successful launch of a revolutionary new baby gear product. On a separate business unit, sales were doubled strictly based on a grass roots PR and events approach that Gabby spearheaded. More recently Gabby has consulted for me in the following capacities: PR strategy development; marketing planning and brand positioning development. Her contributions have been invaluable and I look forward to our next collaboration.

I have had the distinct pleasure of working with Gabby Nobrega in her capacity as PR consultant for LoyaltyOne in 2016 and again in 2017. Not only did Gabby provide us with strategic insight and action planning with respect to her PR wheelhouse, she was a valued partner across all aspects of our 2016 marcomm plan. Gabby is on the list of collaboratively focused vendors I have had the pleasure to work with across my career. She is an accomplished strategic thinker, a strong target audience voice at the table and is both comfortable and competent in adding value beyond her core PR expertise. Gabby is also a pleasure to work with and her natural “challenge bent” brings out the best in those around her, ultimately enabling stretch results.

We’ve looked to Gabby to provide strategic counsel, executive remarks for our president, and facilitation of strategy sessions. She is a skilled practitioner who has a keen ability to enable us to achieve our goals effectively and efficiently.

I have worked with Gabby for years and keep going back. Her clarity of thought, creative thinking and practical approach generate results every time. Gabby has an uncanny ability to look at issues and opportunities from unique perspectives, providing clear, practical and workable solutions. Gabby can distill complex challenges into clear opportunities and work with you to map out a strategy and plan forward.

Solo Traveler retained Breakthrough to assist with a BD and MarComms strategy to drive the website’s authority, share of voice and growth in the Solo Traveler community, on both B2B and B2C fronts. The mandate required Breakthrough to achieve a number of KPIs including early ROI on the BD front, a long-term roadmap to continue to build Solo Traveler’s share of voice, including relating to the Solo Traveler Awards. Breakthrough pushed us and asked the right questions that set us clearly on the path to our continued evolution and success. We highly recommend them/Gabby.

I thought Gabby was incredible – so smart! Our group is tough to manage and she was able to take control of the entire conversation throughout the day. Not only that, she was able to handle any questions that were thrown at her. She definitely gave me confidence as a leader taking us through this, so when she talked, we listened.
