About Lisa Richey and Manners To Go

My name is Lisa Richey, and I am the founder of Manners To Go™ . This brand has given me the honor of teaching manners to thousands of people around the world. The journey has taken me from Portland, Oregon to the Middle East. I believe that manners are not about judgment or rules. Manners are about self-interest. It really is about how using good manners makes you feel on the inside.
Lisa is a great mentor and her Manners to Go program is truly turn key. She taught me everything that I needed to learn to ensure that I will be successful in my endeavor . The program has been very helpful every step of the way. I feel truly blessed that I am part of her team. ~ Rita Linda Dayrit
Philippines Etiquette Consultant, 2018, Manners and Mindfulness
Lisa is a consummate professional and has been an invaluable resource to me as I begin my new business. Not only is she warm and welcoming in person, she is also an expert in her field who makes the subject matter relatable and accessible to her clients. Her training has provided me with a vast knowledge of etiquette and best practices for teaching it.
As an international business operator, I have been impressed with Lisa’s curiosity and questions, which enabled her to advise me and apply her product in a new region for a new audience. Her knowledge of marketing enabled me to hit the ground running and hold my first classes within weeks of becoming certified. Not only have I opened my own business but I have also gained a teammate who is committed to my success. ~ Jenni F., Macau, China
Lisa Richey’s Manners To Go certification program provides a highly efficient and effective training program for anyone considering starting a manners and etiquette business. I selected her program because of the virtual delivery method of training. The lesson plans and student handouts were easy to download and review before engaging in her one-on-one conference calls. During each call, Mrs. Richey was very focused in conveying her business strategies she has proven to be successful over the years. Mrs. Richey’s Manners To Go certification program is really a “best value” program considering her efficient use of the virtual delivery method of training, the quality of teaching materials provided and the effective, interactive business calls with her I found necessary to guide my steps to make the business of teaching manners successful. ~ Aleta Greenspan, Alabama
As a former teacher, I deliberated for months over which etiquette curriculum would best fit and equip me with quality materials, instruction and support to reenter the field of education. Manners To Go delivers! I regret not getting started sooner. The investment is modest for the quantity and caliber of materials you receive, not to mention the personal coaching from Lisa. The curriculum is age appropriately structured and organized in an easy to study format that positions you to execute your lesson confidently prepared. If you have a passion for equipping young people in etiquette, Manners To Go, is the way to go! ~ Alissa R. | Etiquette Consultant, 2016
I was looking for charm school type material for my after school program for girls, and came upon the Manners To Go website. It was like finding a treasure trove of “what-to-do(s)” and “how-to-do(s)” on manners for children. It was more that I could have imagined finding. It is, without a doubt, one of the best decisions I have ever made.
In receiving my MTG training, Lisa provided every tool and resource needed to become a successful MTG Consultant. What excited me the most is that the training includes access to her many years of experience as a successful businesswoman.
I recommend the MTG program to parents, grandparents, teachers, after school programs, or anyone who may be concerned about what our children need know about manners and etiquette. Lisa’s Manners To Go is a great product, and it is a joy working with her! ~ Lindafaye N. Etiquette Consultant, 2015
Lisa, I am so happy I found you. I’ve wanted to teach kids etiquette for years, but never had the time to research all the material and then figure out how to teach it. With your Manners To Go program, I now have the perfect program to start my business. You delivered exactly what you promised: excellent support and a turnkey system. Thank you for making it easy and fun! It was truly an honor to be trained by someone of your caliber and experience, who was willing to share “everything you know, do, and use” with me. I would highly recommend you to anyone wanting to teach children’s etiquette! ~ Sandra E. Etiquette Consultant 2014
Lisa went above and beyond what she promised to deliver. Her enthusiasm she shares for my business is very reassuring. I have found a life long mentor. ~ Michele W. Etiquette Consultant 2016

Interview with a New Etiquette Consultant Teaching Manners To Go
We have a new etiquette consultant teaching Manners To Go. It was my absolute pleasure to spend time with Nakisha. At Manners To Go, we offer two training options. Nakisha chose the Two Day Immersion Option. This option gives you the opportunity to meet me in person. That’s right, we sit shoulder to shoulder for your training. Like Nakisha, you also have the chance to observe me teaching in a “real” setting. Not a mock session. We also offer a “live” video training option.
During our training we spent one afternoon teaching manners to middle schoolers. Our focus was on communication skills and friendships. We found the students to be highly engaged and eager to learn. Of course, we fit in a class on table manners. The students were served an afternoon snack of fruit and cookies. They learned how to set the table, how to hold a fork and where to place a napkin. We laughed. We shared. We talked.
The next day we spent time together…just the two of us. We focused on Nakisha’s training. She is already well versed on how to teach. Nakisha is a school counselor.
Later in the day, we ended our time together over afternoon tea at The Ritz Carlton. It was memorable.
I asked Nakisha a few questions so that you may get to know her. See her answers below.
You know we are excited to have Nakisha on the Manners To Go team.
Knowing that I will be making a huge impact and change on children’s behavior and overall outlook on self excites me the most.
What is the best advice you have given as a mother to another mother?
The best advice that I have given to a mother is our children are the future; it is our responsibility to make sure they are equiped to carry out their destiny.
What is one place everyone should experience with children?
One place everyone should experience with children I would have to say is fine dining.
How do you like to start your day?
I like to start my day off with meditation and shortly after a cup of coffee or tea.
What is your favorite meal to serve to your children and why?
My favorite meal to serve my children would be dinner. I enjoy making sure they have a well balanced dinner and that is the time I get to socialize and hear about their day. My children love to eat so there is no specific meal.
What advice would you give to your 21 year-old self?
Never fear anyone, live life to the fullest and have no regrets. All things happen for a reason 🙂

If you are reading this blog, I bet you enjoy and appreciate a beautiful table set for a special event or a family meal. Setting a beautiful table is an art and takes thought and intention. Lately, there is so much going on that features beautiful table settings. This article is about two opportunities that are top of mind. One, The Artistic Table which is an exhibit at Hillwood Museum in Washington DC., the other, a new book by Charlotte Moss. Below, you will find a short video which I found on one of my favorite blogs, Quintessence. When you watch this video, you will want to have your favorite cup of tea, a piece of dark chocolate and a comfortable place to sit and enjoy their videos. Yes, the site is addicting…you know….one video leads to another leads to another!
The Artistic Table at Hillwood Museum
First, let’s go take a look at a museum that I discovered last summer. I loved it so much I joined. Hillwood Museum is the home of Marjorie Merriweather Post. Years ago, a tour of Mar a Lago lead me to Hillwood. The gardens are beautiful but the china, table scapes and art are what captured my curiosity. This is a place I hope to visit often.
Located in Northwest Washington DC, Hillwood welcomes you to an enchanted world of grace and gentility. Marjorie Merriweather Post allows you to escape and find not only a mansion but beautiful gardens and a chance to dine at a cafe on the premises. Take the time to take a guided tour through the museum. You will want to take in the history as well as her art collection. The table settings are exquisite. The vastness of her collections are admirable.
The Artistic Table: In this exhibition, seven well-known interior designers curate table settings using Post’s finest china and collectibles. The exhibit is available now through June 10, 2018.
Hillwood promises a memorable experience and one that you should add to your list when visiting Washington DC.
Charlotte Moss Entertains on Quintessance: Trust Me and Watch the Video
Watch the video as the link is below. Trust me on this one and your table will never be boring. She offers so many tips as Susanna Salk interviews her. Here are a few of Charlotte’s tips:
Shop Your Closet: You know the closet full of clothes that you own and you hear that inner voice tell you to go shopping because you have nothing to wear to the cocktail party that you are invited to on Friday night. Then your common sense or best friend kicks in and you decide to “shop in your closet”! Well, Ms. Moss tells you to do this when setting your next table. What do you already own that is in your china cabinet or napkin drawer?
Photograph It: When you entertain or a set a table, photograph it so you will easily recall ideas from the past. As you go thorough your Instagram or Pinterest feed, screenshot ideas.
Spontaneous Entertaining: Why not? Give it a try. Invite friends over for dinner, cocktails or breakfast.
Add Plants: What a great idea and they last longer than cut flowers.
Go Grocery Shopping: Fill bowls with lemons, oranges, persimmons or artichokes depending on the season. You can always use the lemons for salad dressings or tarts later in the week. This is a brilliant way to add seasonal color and use the items later.
Napkins: Do you collect them like I do? By adding colorful napkins, you create a table with personality.
Small Bread Baskets: Wow, this is a great idea…individual bread baskets for each table setting.
As we train new licensees, you can imagine the endless conversations that we have about table settings and china patterns. Children love to set the table. You can make the lesson on table manners fun and creative by allowing the children to create their own through drawings or actually setting the table.

Listen in as we talk about what we are hearing from parents. Manners begin at home. I think this will be true…always…. but WHY does it make such a difference when a third party enters the picture to teach manners to children? This is the case whether manners are being taught at home or in the classroom. Is it human nature? Is it trust that an etiquette expert knows best?
How Is Social Media Effecting Manners Today?
Manners To Go experts are talking about the effects of social media. Parents are concerned because their children and not fostering and creating relationships with friends. Teens are not easily having conversations with adults.
Teaching all ages manners has it joys! This is so true. Watch as Alissa goes through the ages and talks about her passions teaching preschoolers versus high schoolers.
