This is not what Bruno is expressing in this sentence. "Thinking on one's feet" is an idiom which indicates that someone is capable of thinking quickly, or improvising. It is unrelated to "spin".
The term "spin" is sometimes used in English to describe the manner in which a story is told. To "put the right spin on a story" expresses that the story will be told (or even manipulated) in a way which favors one perspective over another. In the context of Bruno's email, he is telling Harold that Susan knows the best way of explaining Warbuckle's story in a way which favors Delavigne and Warbuckle.
This is not what Bruno's line expresses. He is actually telling Warbuckle that Susan Bliss is talented at "turning" or "spinning" a story in a particular way, not that she gives good advice.
"To get the ball rolling" is an expression which means to "initiate" something, or get something started. For example, we could say "Susan why don't you get the ball rolling on these negotiations". It is unrelated to "spin" in this context.
