“I’m no stranger to using social media, but I had never used it to promote myself or my writing. As a new author, I found the internet difficult to navigate and quickly abandoned the idea. Then I met Riley, and she allayed my fears and doubts. She helped give me a great new perspective. Her input was not only strategic, she put plans in place to ensure I continued to be inspired and grow. Without Compass Creative, I would be like thousands of others trying to make their voices heard.”

-Karlie P.

“Whether a debut author is still figuring out their brand or an established author looking to keep up with the ever-changing social media and online community, Compass Point Creative is an absolutely vital tool in any author's arsenal. Writing and storytelling are very personal; each story, author and reader are different. CPC is a fantastic business that helps authors hone in on connecting with their readers and enhancing their brand to make it accessible and desirable to the greater community.”

-Bronwyn E.

“Compass Point Creative’s client-centred approach makes it an enticing offer for authors looking to establish or grow their personal brand, not just market their books. By collaborating with clients to create a bespoke marketing strategy, authors can transform their digital presence while also developing skills that will support sustainable self-promotion in future.”

-Stephanie S.

“I started a charitable organization and thought I knew what I wanted my logo to look like boy, was I wrong. I sent my ideas, and after a little back and forth, I got back something so beautiful it made me cry. I highly recommend Compass Point Creative to family, friends and anyone else looking for these types of services!”

-Leslie W.

“Riley has done all our social media for years. From updating with bright graphics to engaging with potential families, her work helps drive our business forward. She has also done a phenomenal job with revamping our website to look so fresh new and colorful! I don’t know where we would be without her.”

-Julie K.
