What they say?

"Stacy is an incredible publicist and such a pleasure to work with! My co-founder and I hired her to do a press release for an upcoming software version release, and she wrote an exquisite article which she then was able to get picked up by so many large news publications. We were so impressed and happy with the number of news publications that received and published the story. Our user base has also doubled! She was extremely on top of it, resourceful, knowledgeable and communicative throughout the whole process. You couldn't pick someone better to be your publicist if you tried! I would highly recommend her services to anyone."

Nicole Klein CEO of Betagig

"Working with Stacy and her PR firm has been one of the biggest positives of my musical career. She not only gets the job done, she is also a conscientious person and communicates very well. I recommend working with Stacy for any PR needs you may have. You will not only be amazed at the results but you will also enjoy the process."

Lakotah Billboard Charting Recording Artist

"I have worked with Stacy on several different projects and in each she has been easy to work with and with good results. She is honest and has great integrity and I TRUST her. I'm farther along in the movie endeavors for my books than I ever dreamed possible, and it's due to Stacy's initial contact and follow-up research. She is an excellent contact, personable and gets things done--as well as a pleasure to work with."
