I feel like we’ve got one of the most important collaborations going of my entire life and I’m thrilled to have partners like you at EMSI.

Just a quick note to say “Thanks” for doing what you said you would do. With how quick everyone moves in 2013 and all the noise of twitter, pintrest, facebook, and how to promote your band you have more than fulfilled your obligation to our firm.

I had been looking into an affordable way to do some PR for over two years and now that we have hired you, we have over a dozen articles on the web, on our homepage, and on our facebook page.

It amazes me that we were a secret and in a little over 4 months you have brought some national media into my office with some great PR results!

“EMSI effectively outlines what individuals need to do in order to forge a successful path in self-promoting or marketing their product. In Marsha’s book, “Celebritize Yourself,” I learned immediately the product was not my novel, but rather something far greater. My novel was merely a stronger entrance. Steve and Marsha knew the most influential material in highlighting my message, then passing it on to someone like Ginny Grimsley, who then concentrated on which direction to flow with my promotion.

I must say EMSI taught me valuable tools to carry forth with this marketing of myself and my book. I learned tremendously from Ginny Grimsley and from EMSI in general, which was well worth each moment, during the year. I respect all the knowledge you passed on to me.

I certainly hope people find a way to incorporate EMSI and people like Ginny into their campaign.”

“Traditional PR firms can be very expensive, requiring substantial monthly retainers while simultaneously guaranteeing they’ll to do their best to get you media exposure. That sentence is usually followed up with a caveat of the nebulous nature of the 24/7 news cycle and how all PR firms are constrained by the whims of the media.

This doesn’t have to be the case. Fortunately, we work with perhaps one of the only PR firm that actual works on a pay-for-performance philosophy. Our PR firm, E.M.S.I., is led by Marsha and Steve Friedman and their remarkable staff of seasoned, creative and talented media experts. They work on a set budget that guarantees media placement. They just don’t toss you to the lions, either. Senior Campaign Manager Alex Hinojosa and Creative Director Penny Carnathan work diligently to design and align a media strategy that truly optimizes our return on investment. Alex is a brilliant media coach as well. He thoroughly prepared me for how best to communicate my message during radio interviews. Rich Ghazarian, our radio campaign manager, has booked us on many syndicated, terrestrial radio programs that have high ratings and are heard throughout the country. These aren’t internet podcasts, we’re talking broadcasts.

If you’ve been burned by agencies that promised the world and delivered little more than a monthly invoice I highly recommend the E.M.S.I. team! They’re the perfect fit for entrepreneurs looking to build their credibility, visibility, and reach for a very reasonable investment.”

“EMSI played a crucial role in my campaign for Teamster President. I appeared on talk shows in virtually every media market and they secured television and print coverage wherever I campaigned!”

“We would love to have Marsha Friedman come to work for us full time! We devour her informational emails; Our Director of Marketing has our marketing staff (who are the best book marketing people in the industry) read everything she sends us. She is top notch across the board. We receive tens of thousands of submissions and only about 2-3% are even considered by our house. Of the few who do get a publishing agreement with us we are always delighted when we hear that Marsha has sent them our way. She knows this business!”

“I have hired other so-called pr firms in the past that have promised me interviews and media coverage but did not do anything that they promised. EMSI has done exactly what they said they would do! They secured 30 radio interviews all over the country for me, as they promised they would, including some really big names like the G. Gordon Liddy show. The fact that EMSI got such a high percentage of syndicated shows gave me broader coverage and better results.

“I would definitely recommend EMSI to others who are interested in getting the exposure for their company or product.”
