I am a high-volume IEC and was lucky to have a business pipeline before I had the tools to support it.  I have been on a year long journey investigating different CRM and tool avenues to support me and my clients.  I found lots to like out there, but nothing that was checking all of my boxes at a price point that suited my business model.  I came upon the College Companion Spreadsheets and spent a few months thinking on it.  What I have loved is Cindy's belief in her product and the expertise behind it.  She is a very giving member of the IEC community, hosting free demos and sessions for people to learn about what she offers.

I have had the spreadsheets for a few months, which have been more than expected.  Mainly because of the support behind the sale. Cindy has a great course that teaches you about her product and how to use Google Sheets in general. They were easy to follow and I have learned so much.  This is important because it allows you to customize things to suit your needs.   Along those same lines, Cindy is very accessible if you have questions.

I cannot say enough good things and enthusiastically recommend this product!

I purchased the College Companion Sheets last year, and I cannot say enough about the difference they've made in my practice! I am spending so much less time in front of my computer, which has been an absolute game-changer for my workload. My students always know exactly what needs to be done and when, thanks to the fantastic built-in tracking system, and the tabs are incredibly valuable, giving students real direction and guidance in between our meetings. It has been fabulous!

On top of that, the customer service from Cindy is immeasurable and truly exceptional. She has made this experience even better.

I also added the College Supplement Essay Prompts this year, and it has literally cut my workload in half! I have tried other college application software systems over the years, and College Companion Sheets is, without a doubt, the absolute best and easiest to use for both counselors and students. I recommend it wholeheartedly!

The College Companion Spreadsheet has completely transformed how I work with my students, and at the same time it fits so well with my own style. It's comprehensive, it's organized, it's customizable. Having a central location for tracking progress, worksheets, college data, and resources keeps both consultant and student organized from start to finish. Not being an expert on Google Drive and Google Sheets before I started with Cindy's Spreadsheet didn't matter since her course covers all the details you need to get up and running. I appreciate how she's always available for questions, whether through email or over Zoom, no matter how big or small. The monthly catch ups and email tips she started recently are yet another plus, and I love that we have become a growing community of College Companion Spreadsheet users. Cindy actively seeks feedback and is always finding new ways to make the Spreadsheet even better. And she's done that again - she's provided us with the missing piece: the College Companion Curriculum add on. In a word, amazing! I had various versions of Google Docs and guides by topic in my drive, but it would sometimes get a little messy. I love how the new College Companion Curriculum is organized into an assignment tracking system with links to guides, worksheets and online resources for our students as we work with them throughout their college journey. I'm so thankful to Cindy for sharing her expertise and for putting so much hard work and dedication into the College Companion Spreadsheet. In case you can't tell, I'm a fan!
