Stan Finger

Stan Finger is a Pulitzer Prize nominee and award-winning writer who spent more than 34 years as a staff writer at The Wichita Eagle. He is also the author of two books: the novel Fallen Trees and Into the Deep, co-written with the lone survivor of a family killed in a flash flood that claimed six lives on the Kansas Turnpike in 2003.

Have you ever looked for an online review of a business or a book and seen a post accompanied by a few words or a vague sentence or two? It’s frustrating, because you’re left with just as many questions as you started with. Client testimonials such as those offered by Testify are valuable because they go beyond the surface to reveal more about the customer experience. The testimonies help consumers feel informed and confident about their shopping choices and buying decisions. That means when they call or walk into the door, they’re ready to do business.

So, why should you consider me for your marketing or communications needs? First and foremost, I’m a writer. A story teller. A weaver of words. But I’m also a strategy creator, a relationship builder and a natural leader. I have a passion for solving communication challenges, whether it be through well-written web content or an appropriately-timed phone call. Whichever path it takes to get the job done and get the message across. I take my work very seriously, but I don’t take myself too seriously, meaning I bring light and levity to the project while delivering high-quality results.
