Initially when I was referred to Ann Baker in California for a new website I was bit concerned that the time difference between California and New York might present difficulties in communicating with each other. I am in a service business and expect the service from others that I give to my clients. What that translates to is that if I have a question, I like a timely answer. Ann of Publicity Pros was a total delight to work with, was totally professional, and, she almost made me forget the time difference. Her responses were timely and she kept the flow moving during the critical development stage. See for yourself what a great website she created by visiting www.speechassociatesofny.com

During the time I worked with Ann Baker I received more PR coverage than any other PR service company I worked with previously. She listens to your goals, your story and your needs and puts together a package that works for your business! This is not cookie cutter PR! Here’s the proof, these are a few of the stories that Ann landed for my company: Connecting Women radio interview, Military Officer, Family Magazine, Home Business Magazine, Salute, Power Women Magazine & radio program.

The staff at Publicity Pros are real pros and here’s why: they are too savvy simply to trade on their vast industry knowledge, hoarding value to create a professional mystique for which they can charge more. Instead, they will teach you everything they know about PR so you can learn to promote your services yourself, which will only complement their efforts and grow your company’s visibility as a result. Everyone wins! Ask yourself, whom would you trust more with your most precious assets–these being your hopes and dreams for your enterprise and the limited resources to invest in them–The Wizard of Oz, or Glinda the Good? Both are reputed to have special powers, but only the latter will show you the way home.

PR-123 saves me hours scanning multi-daily requests for press info about our eco gifts niche and getting them to me in time. We have worked together for a while and by now, they know our stock well and I feel they are part of the team — not an impersonal service that doesn’t understand subtle opportunities that might lurk in one of these announcements that might not be obvious to people looking for a few obvious keywords. Highly recommended.

I am extremely pleased with the social media services provided by Publicity Pros! I run virtually every aspect of my small business, and I just don’t have time to follow through on every task. With Publicity Pros, I write my blog content and know that it will be resized and posted onto my Twitter and FaceBook accounts. These important To-Dos happen without any additional action or thought from me. In addition to Twittering, Facebooking, and helping to manage by blog, Ann takes the time to review my account and suggest strategic changes. I truly value her input! And when needed, I can contact Ann for ideas and input. Her team of designers create sharp-looking materials at very reasonable rates, as well! Thank you!

Last September I committed to publishing our blog twice weekly, our customer newsletter twice monthly and then twittering about both daily. I was able to make this commitment by hiring PR-123.com to handle the posting of the blogs and writing of the newsletters and tweets. Views of our blog from last year to this year have increased 1,000%, our newsletter subscribers are up and we are getting orders from those newsletters. Overall our retail sales have doubled from first quarter of 2009 versus first quarter of 2010. Consistency in message and frequency is what has made the difference. When I committed to doing the blog regularly I also had it designed to look like our website versus using the templates on wordpress. The numbers speak for themselves – consistent and frequent contact with your fans and customers is key to building your client base!

PR-123 sends me hand-picked promotional opportunities not only tailor-made to meet the PR needs of my business, but those which fit my unique strengths as a female entrepreneur. I receive queries that are relevant to my business background, my products, my manufacturing, as well as my personal story. As a direct result of information PR-123 shares with me, I receive positive responses from media contacts, as well as collaborations and placements, regularly. The team at PR-123 are personable and knowledgeable. Working with them is like having an old friend in the PR business.

Publicity Pros often works with small businesses such as mine offering varying levels of service at affordable rates, and they do an excellent job at it. Sometimes I feel a little guilty about the quantity of work they’re doing for the rate I’m charged. Projects are handled within quick time frames, the writing is intelligent, and I have to also mention their amazing wealth of marketing ideas, accessibility, and customer service. Their PR-123 service also saves me a tremendous amount of time I was previously spending every day trying to find PR leads.

I would recommend PR-123 to businesses that wanted a lot of PR opportunities from all kinds of media – not necessarily targeting just the biggest names out there. Targeting a range of media gives the small business a better chance of being mentioned, and building up a PR portfolio to help bolster the chances of larger placements down the line.

PR-123 did a great job with matching me to the appropriate PR opportunities for my business. I did have a few questions about submitting a pitch and the response time was great. Ann reached me back before the deadline and answered all my questions. I really appreciate her leaving the lines of communication open and letting me know I can contact her anytime with any questions I may have; and to me that’s what great customer satisfaction is all about. I think that PR-123 provides a great affordable service for individuals and companies who need PR service. I would definitely recommend this service and I already have.

PR-123 found good matches for our business, and we were pleasantly surprised because what we do is pretty unusual so we weren’t sure how many leads they could find for us. They have a great service and we’d definitely recommend them to other businesses.
