“Kim has done a great job getting our press releases in front of the right people to gain us valuable coverage in both online and print publications. She helped us use search listening to identify important trends for us to utilize in future content for press releases as well as "how-to" and informational articles for our website. She also helped us secure radio and podcast interviews to help us tell our story to a wider audience. We look forward to continuing our journey together.”
