"I know my business, I know my product, all I needed were contacts. Handle Your Own PR came along at just the right time for me as I didn't have to waste my (lack of!) time approaching print media myself - and then there was the concern of my phone call or email being pushed into the 'junk mail' or the 'not interested' basket or worst still, being labeled a nuisance! As an establishing business and brand I really can't afford any negativity. I was so impressed with the amount of contacts on the lists - excited in fact! Knowing that the majority of the contacts you provided are WAITING for my call is just fantastic! Takes all the hard work out of it..... well, except making the actual phone call... but it was the contacts I needed - I can do all the rest! It was definitely money well spent!"
