Did they get you any results (additional press mentions, more work, etc)
Was the job they did for you cost effective?
Hi Don, I work with some, and I like it, because they have the gift of being positive, even when they don't get what they want. :D
A friend contracted with an indi for his Production Company, Somehow, she got him on the covers of many local and regional business magazines, everything was in a good light!
It really was a first class act on her part. Of course this comes at a price. I believe in just one year his business improved heaps, then 9/11 and the economy turned things back around, who would have known! I think it would be better to catch the economy on the upswing if you intend to go that route. I never heard my friend complain about the cost.
