"Kathy’s ability to connect with a wide range of personalities adds tremendous value to her training. She is able to share information in a way where it can be absorbed and implemented immediately. Kathy is an incredible trainer!"

We met Kathy a few years ago at a training event, and since then we have had the privilege of working with her on several other occasions both on site and at her group training functions. Kathy’s ability to connect with a wide range of personalities adds tremendous value to her training. She is able to share information in a way where it can be absorbed and implemented immediately. Kathy is an incredible trainer!

We hired Kathy to come shortly after going live with Service Titan to ensure we knew what we were doing and show us some new best practices when it comes to the software! We got that and more! In addition to training our CSRs, Technicians, and service managers how to most effectively use Service Titan, she went even further with CSR tips, customer service training, and even helping our Service Managers know how to coach their techs more effectively. We could not have had a better 3 day session with Kathy and if you are thinking about hiring her for an onsite visit, Stop thinking and Do it! You will NOT regret any minute of it!

I just came back from attending Kathy Nielsen's CSR Superhero Boot Camp in Dallas Texas. I have to say after attending the boot camp I have a completely different outlook on how to interact with my customers. Kathy is so inspiring, not to mention engaging with all of the class, and you really feel like part of a "team". I am definitely going to continue my training with Kathy I believe in her process and she makes perfect sense! So today I said to myself, "Rise & Shine" I was actually excited to come to work and start utilizing what I had learned from Kathy in her CSR Superhero Bootcamp!!!

Kathy is engaging, relatable and knowledgeable. She brings a level of professionalism along with a great deal of first hand experience in the service industry which adds to her overall credibility. I especially enjoyed the ability to participate in the class with her and other attendees. At the end of the two day CSR Superhero Bootcamp, I felt empowered and armed with actionable items ready to be implemented ASAP. Thank you!

"My hero!"

Kathy's help with Service Titan and Quickbooks has given me a fresh outlook on both. I was extremely frustrated with not getting answers on issues in both software. Not only is she the most helpful trainer I have met, but she is also the most friendly, personable person I have met in a long time! Thank you Kathy!

Janie LISLE, IL

"Wonderful trainer/teacher"

What can say I about Kathy her dedication and passion comes through in her training! She is a truly knowledgeable trainer who cares about teaching people what they need to know in the time frame they need it to be done. Whether it is in a group setting or one on one she has the patience of a saint. She dealt with people who are harder to teach or do not easily comprehend and had no problem "dumbing" it down for some us. :) Seriously best experience ever would give her 10 out of 10 but was only allowed 5

Kathleen Lisle, IL

"So grateful that I got to experience this training!"

Kathy is an excellent trainer! Very personable and makes learning fun. I appreciated being able to learn from her and from the others in the classroom. I found it valuable to be able to bounce ideas and experiences off with others in my same job/position. Kathy even makes role-playing fun. Thank you for such a fantastic class, Kathy!

Tammi Runco Forney, TX

"Great person and presenter"

Kathy is an amazing person and a great teacher. We had Kathy come to our location to assist us with our recent transition to ServiceTitan and Quickbooks. Her knowledge of the industry practices, best practices and ways to use ServiceTitan more effectively for us, brought so much peace of mind to our organization. We learned a lot when we did our on boarding process, but Kathy quietly observed how we were using the software and shed light on some of our processes making more sense of things and making them a whole lot easier. Having her onsite and sharing her knowledge with myself our technicians, office staff and a one day mini CSR bootcamp has launched us forward in the program and relieved a lot of stress we were experiencing. It was well worth the investment to better our company by having her spend time with us. Would definitely recommend her to anyone.

"The only stupid question is one that didn't get asked..."

Renee K Maple Grove, MN

"Fantastic trainer for ALL areas of our business!!"

Kathy was amazingly able to relate and handle all challenges thrown at her during her 4 days with our company! She helped with training 50 technicians, 7 Sales, 8 CSR, 5 Admin with QuickBooks and Service Titan integration. Her up-beat yet direct way of presenting is GREAT. I will definitely contract with her again!!

Martha J Dayton, OH

"Awesome from start to finish!"

Gareth Media, PA

"Kathy knows her stuff! She kept everyone’s attention over 2 days of training."

Kathy knows her stuff! She kept everyone’s attention over 2 days of training. She was unflappable in front of 9 service techs, and you know how tough that can be! We set up a difficult schedule and Kathy hung with it to get it all in. Worth the money and a good value. We can’t wait to get her back.

Eric Buchalter Hillburn, NY

"Consistency Breeds Accuracy"

Kathy was just what we needed for our team members in the office and out in the field to understand our systems as a team. She is very knowledgeable and is very thorough with her processes when training. Our team loved her and can't wait to have her back!

Patricia W. Oconomowoc, WI

"I promise you all… She will not disappoint."

Kathy is an amazing business woman—-Who has been through it all. I can truly say I’ve never, met anyone as passionate and professional ! She simplifies some of the most difficult procedures, helps you individually… Team meetings, trainings and much more. We had the pleasure of having her in our Carnegie office, located near Pittsburgh Pennsylvania on September 5 and 6th. Honestly, if I had the ability to clone this woman-it would be on the top of my list! Ha ha. I would love to have her on my right shoulder at all times. She is TERRIFIC -down to earth, relatable and easy to talk to. Not to mention…efficiency-should be her middle name., She leads with excellence, and helps you and your team , find the path of least resistance-while remaining successful and profitable. If you’re interested in guidance, looking to boost your revenue, general advice, training ;team-building literally… There is literally NOTHNG she cannot tackle. Don’t hesitate, don’t procrastinate. Get in touch with her as soon as you can, she is such a busy woman, her value simply cannot be explained. I’ve tried, but I still feel like I haven’t said enough! THIS it’s a life-changing thing. Thank you Kathy ❤️for everything you’ve given us, you are without a doubt, 100% my spirit animal. I truly hope our paths cross again. Till we meet again—-✌🏻 I promise you all… She will not disappoint.

"Today's accomplishments were yesterdays Impossibilities"

Just when we were ready to throw in the towel with Servicetitan, we found Kathy. She flew down to our humble establishment and trained my entire staff on what we thought we new but didn't. She listened to our pain points with this CRM, Looked within our settings and usage and then trained us all on how to correctly use what is a very expensive and difficult software. Truth is, she made it seem easy. We thank her for her knowledge and patience. Training staff, technicians and salespeople can always be a challenge, no less ownership. She went though our current operation and reset our process's to put us in the correct direction. Our long term hope is that we eventually get to a point where we are using this software to it's fullest and I am 100% confident that with her help, we will get there. Thank you again, Dave Molina CEO

What a sweet awakening this class is. Seriously, my newly perfected CSR skills make me feel like a rockstar, in and outside of my office life. Kathy helped me in so many ways just by doing what she loves, and sharing it with people who want to be exceptional. I wanted to be the best, and I'm so proud to say that this class brought the best out of me and into my work. Thank you so much Kathy and Dawn, and s/o to the graduated CSR Super Hero Bootcamp class of February 2020!!!

"Totally Amazing Abilities"

For months I had been struggling with an issue that no one had been able to address. I needed to create a special report in Service Titan for the HVAC department that I was beginning to actually believe was impossible. I was wrong! Once Kathy understood what information I needed to compile the report was built and ready to use in about 90 minutes. Months of trying on my own was done in 90 minutes! Just goes to show, if you need something done, bring the right people with the right knowledge and the right tools and it's done. The Chicken Lady rocks! Thank you for everything. Gunny.

"A whole new level of connection!"

Our company has taken advantage of Kathy's expertise on several occasions. Most recently we had her on site for a 'What's Your Genius' event. If you are not familiar with this particular training, I highly recommend you reach out to learn more. The impact from this one single event will have a butterfly effect on our business for years to come. I believe it is what will set our company apart from others in our marketplace. Our team was able to learn more about their natural talents, blind-spots, and communication style. This brought a new level of connection and passion for the company vision and each individuals role within that vision. Our increased level of communication with each other ultimately allows us to better serve our clients. Thanks Kathy!

"Hobaica"

We are a 68 year old company with a lot of processing baggage. We have utilized many different software packages, developed processes & tracking systems for each. We had become inefficient with our office operations and were not utilizing our software effectively. Kathy spent 3 days with us and got us whipped into shape. Kathy made it look easy with no disruption and our team is much happier! Plus, Kathy saved us at a minimum of 10x our investment with her services. Kathy is well worth every penny and we will continue to use her services...Thank You Chicken Lady!

Lou Phoenix, AZ

"Highly recommend!"

Our Kellam Mechanical team welcomed Kathy into our HVAC, Plumbing and Electrical company of 25 years with open arms ready to tackle our Service Titan software conversion. She arrived on our Go Live date with her helpful assistant, Erin, both ready to jump into our 2 day onsite training. They were incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and full of best practices tips. They shared the same importance of efficient workflows we have and taught us how to set up our software to meet our needs. Training with our technicians was valuable time also to teach the mobile app workflow. Before they left, I booked a return visit in a few months so they can help with fine tuning our reports and processes. Attempting to go live without onsite training would have been less productive and highly frustrating. Kathy was our go live hero! Highly recommend!

Sarah Kellam Virginia Beach, VA

"Then there's Kathy..."

We just wrapped up our 3 day onsite visit with Kathy and couldn't be more pleased. Having someone who not only understands the HVAC and Plumbing industry but also understands ServiceTitan and Quickbooks seemed almost too good to be true. Fortunately for us, this person was Kathy. She knows her stuff! She left us with great ideas and a TON of work to do. :) - Thanks Kathy, It really was a pleasure.

Josh Crane Jackson, MS

"Informative"

I learned a lot from this. I really enjoyed the virtual classroom setting and being able to get ideas from other CSRs in the industry. Kathy was informative and answered everyone's questions. I highly recommend this class for CSR's. Thank you Kathy.

We hired Kathy to assist us with a major software implementation and we found her experience with the software and industry invaluable to our project. Our team appreciated all of Kathy's expertise.

"Unparalled professionalism"

There isn't enough positive praise I could heap on Kathy for the knowledge and guidance she's provided for our business. I've engaged with many consultants in different capacities over the years, and each of those experiences lies somewhere on a continuum of good, to well...less-than-ideal. Having Kathy handle the education and training for the latest experience was nothing short of "re-setting the bar." Kathy goes above and beyond to make every aspect of what is often simultaneously - a stressful and happy experience - nothing short of amazing. For some of us, running a business is one of the most critical endeavors we will undertake, and in the present market, it can be a soul-crushing experience. But having a consultant that makes you feel your project is the ONLY one they're focused on isn't just rare; it's anomalous. Kathy is deserving (and more) of all the flattery and compliments he receives here (and elsewhere) for her diligent work and approach to taking care of her clients. I can confidently add to those recommendations without reservation.

"Pain is Temporary, Greatness lasts Forever"

Kathy, Erin, & the entire team could not have provided a higher level of service. This business has their work flow, data, and understanding of their products to the "T". Was overly impressed by the amount of takeaways from bringing in Operation Excellence as a consultant. Items that you could not put a price on were achieved. Their team defined a new understanding of the product. Work first, themselves second.. Kathy's team exemplified all of that and more. Our entire staff, internal & external loved working with Operation Excellence. Thank you again Operation Excellence for a great onboarding. Look forward to working together with you in the future. Hope to see you here in South Florida again soon.

Jason R Fort Lauderdale, FL

"Awesome Class"

Thank you Kathy!! She shared great information that is really going to help me feel more confident when speaking with our clients. I highly recommend her services! I will definitely be taking more classes from Kathy.

"Making work personable"

CSR Superhero helped me to suit up and be the superhero my company needed. The pace of the class was perfect! Nothing was drawn out to fill time or rushed where I wasn't able to catch on. It was able to fully absorb information and retain it. The work book helped me gain insight before hand of ideas that were being taught. This allowed me to look where I needed improvement and come up with questions so I could achieve the highest amount of growth. I have come out of Kathy's class stronger, more confident, and knowledgeable of myself, my roll, and different perspectives. I am a true Superhero now! Thanks Kathy!

"These guys Rock!!"

As some of you may know our software of choice can lead to very frustrating times. We recently signed on with Service Titan and were having a difficult time understanding how to most effectively implement our workflows into Service Titan. We are now starting to see some success thanks to Kathy and her team! Special thanks to Ryan Nelsch for taking the lead with our team to see real results!!

"They put our company on the right path!"

Thank you so much, to the Chicken Lady and her amazing team!. Kassidy and Erin truly put our company on the right path. They have a true understanding of the System and i believe even a better understanding than the system's support team! If not for the Chicken Lady and her team, we probably would have terminated our subscription to this system. Thank you all and we at Slate Plumbing, HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Chicken Lady and her TEAM!

Abel Gasca Dallas, TX

"Incredible"

Our company had been using Service Titan for a year before we approached Kathy and her team for help. We were deciding between keeping Service Titan as our application for our plumbing business or scraping it all together. All it took was one phone with Kathy to know she would correctly direct us to success. Her and her team are priceless. Truly thankful for all their help.

"Any company would benefit from your knowledge. You have a very "down to earth" way about you which makes everyone comfortable while you deliver advice that can be used instantly to improve the business. "

I would be honored for you to use any of my words and would be a happy to be a reference! Any company would benefit from your knowledge. You have a very "down to earth" way about you which makes everyone comfortable while you deliver advice that can be used instantly to improve the business. The best part is that you have "been there...done that"; your firsthand knowledge makes the information even more valuable! I also want to thank you for all of the advise and help you have given us over the last two days. Mark certainly did the right thing when he scheduled you to come this week. I believe the next few weeks will be a positive turning point for Mark Johnson Plumbing. You have helped the Johnsons make some tough decisions. Andy also asked me to express how much he learned from you today and that he believes in the structure, consistency, and standard operating practices you discussed with the technicians. There were several times during your presentation that we both wanted to say "AMEN"! ha!

Great Investment! Kathy helped us streamline our office, and explained new features with Service Titan that we where not even aware of yet, as well as unlocked new features that we didn't currently have access too. She greatly reduced the time it took us to do payroll by helping us implement a few changes in the way we did it. We are happy with the investment made to have her come to our shop.

Kathy Nielsen's coaching sessions were very beneficial! She brought down-to-earth suggestions that we could implement immediately. The training Kathy provided our technicians as a group was great; she was able to relate to them because of her background in the business. She gave the technicians very useful information about Service Titan which makes their job easier out in the field. Kathy's expertise with Service Titan is incredible. She showed us additional capabilities of the software which will definitely enhance the service we provide our customers. Kathy is a very valuable resource; I highly recommend her to any company wishing to grow and improve!

"My favorite thing about you is how you engage your audience, use humor, and own the front of the room. Too many presenters/trainers/etc. cannot do that, and you are tremendously engaging. "

My favorite thing about you is how you engage your audience, use humor, and own the front of the room. Too many presenters/trainers/etc. cannot do that, and you are tremendously engaging. Your experience with the industry and your grasp of the technology and how we can leverage that that technology in the office and field was probably the most valuable process for me. I personally got tremendous value on how you helped Lori and the accounting team because honestly, that’s my weakest area and not something I could’ve helped this with. Your insights from the DISC tests was tremendous in helping me structure some of my training that I facilitate, how I provide feedback, spread projects, and make reviews more individual. The DISC results were very beneficial to making sure I’m looking at individuals and not just people in a group.

"I cannot tell you how much we gained from having the on-site, 3 days Service Titan training.  I am now able to spend so much more of my time working "on" the business vs. "in" the business! You are a wealth of information and I apprecia"

I cannot tell you how much we gained from having you on-site for 3 days in August for Service Titan training and I am so looking forward to our 2-day on-site in December! Your understanding of our business and our industry made it so easy to work with you and learn from you! You made us feel very comfortable which is not always the case when getting help with software in our business. I trusted you when you said to forget about a lot of the spreadsheets I was so dependent on and I am so glad that I did! I am able to process our club membership billing and payments in less than 30 minutes total and it used to take me a VERY long time! (I'm embarrassed to say just how long! ) I am now able to spend so much more of my time working "on" the business vs. "in" the business! You were extremely great with our technicians, dispatchers and CCRs and related to them better than any other trainer we have ever experienced. You are a wealth of information and I appreciate all you have done for us!

I have received my certificate and wanted to thank you for everything. It has been a great learning experience and everyone has seen my growth!

I wish you the best this holiday season. Thank you so much again.
