After working in San Francisco, Berlin, and Stockholm, Eric is happy to be back home in the San Francisco Bay Area, where he grew up.
“Good Impressions were unbelievably helpful for Non-trivial’s first fellowship. Within days of our first call, we had support that was responsive, extremely knowledgeable and eager to help out on whatever seemed most important. And they produced results – my guess is that they increased the number of applications we received by 1.5-2x compared to what would have happened without them.”
"Good Impressions demonstrated strong communication, clear subject matter expertise, and an ability to adapt to my preferred style of working. They added massive value and capacity to our lean team during our busiest time of the year."
"Good Impressions are really helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. I really appreciate all their help!"
"Thanks to Good Impressions, Legal Impact for Chickens is now getting the full advantage of the Google Ads grant which otherwise would have gone to waste. Moreover, they are smart, patient, and capable. A pleasure to work with."
“Good Impressions has made a BIG difference to our traffic and conversions.”
