Elimay Supplements
Laura Riehl, VP of Sales

Marketing Maven PR is a top notch firm. From press releases and media placements to marketing development and advertising guidance, they have helped our company in such a comprehensive way that they’ve provided much more than any public relations firm I have worked with. Lindsey Carnett leads an effective and professional team that delivers. Marketing Maven’s PR efforts have earned Elimay highly visible media placements including features on Good Morning San Diego and PBS, among others. They have helped us refine Elimay’s marketing messaging for a more comprehensive company image. With help from MMPR, Elimay also launched our social media campaign through Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, and blogs. These audiences grew very quickly and have been consistently interactive and engaged with the company. Marketing Maven PR has boosted Elimay into several awards spotlights including the Editor’s Choice Supply Side Awards and the National Canine Cancer Foundation’s Seal of Excellence. The team is very organized, follows through with what they promise, and maintains great communication with all their partners. I would highly recommend Marketing Maven PR as a business partner.


Elliott F. Brainard, Brainard's Natural Remedies
Architect

I was referred to Marketing Maven Public Relations in December 2009 by a packaging consultant who had seen Lindsey Carnett's high success rate with lifestyle and consumer clients.  I spoke with her on the phone and felt like she could help me market my company and take my business to the next level.  Fortunately, I took the leap of faith and decided to enter into a 6-month publicity agreement.

 

Over the last 6 months, she has helped me look at my business from a big picture strategy perspective, yet she has also helped to implement the very small details to help move us forward in our sales goals.  I recently signed on for another 6-months, as Marketing Maven Public Relations has become a highly integrated marketing and publicity arm of my business.

 

Lindsey Carnett brings honesty, a knack for marketing, a positive personality and a hardworking team to the table to approach sales and marketing of a business from all angles-social media, new business prospects, media visibility to earn credibility, and executres the plans. Unlike most marketing or PR agencies, Marketing Maven Public Relations under promises and over delivers.

 

It is with the highest regard that I recommend Marketing Maven Public Relations to help other businesses grow.  From medical products, supplements and fitness equipment to companies with services like hospitality, B2B companies, design firms or events from awards shows to non-profit events, I can assure you Lindsey and her team will take care of you, make sure you receive the highest level of service, and use their contacts in each lifestyle and consumer niche category to deliver the best marketing and publicity results.

 

This marketing and publicity process has been a positive learning experience for me in helping to grow my business. Fortunately, I found experts who cared to help walk me through the process while simultaneously performing for my business.

“The Marketing Mavens are a true partner. They get results, are flexible to our changing business needs, and are a pleasure to work with every day. They deliver awesomeness and we plan to work with them for some time.”


Thomas Christensen, Hodnebo Group AS
CEO

When we acquired Hodnebo AS, a 108 year old luxury furniture company in Norway, and wanted to enter the U.S. market, I needed to find a PR and marketing firm capable of helping my company with the task.  My first phone call was to Lindsey Carnett at Marketing Maven Public Relations.  I have worked with Lindsey over the last five years and have found her capabilities to be essential to the growth of my businesses in several different verticals: consumer goods, health and nutrition products, as well as the home furnishing and design categories.

 

 

I have entrusted the Marketing Maven Public Relations team with the responsibility of making strategic marketing, retail distribution and media relations decisions on behalf of Hodnebo Group AS, including the U.S. subsidiary, Spinnaker USA, Inc. and have been delighted with the results. We have successfully set up U.S. distribution with a U.S. entity, fulfillment center, carefully selected retail partners, social media, editorial features with top tier media, marketing collateral that maintains and enhances the brand identity, influential celebrity exposure and exhibits at the most beneficial trade shows.  All of these items have been accomplished at a relatively low cost and have yielded a high return for entering the U.S. market competetively.

 

I recommend Marketing Maven Public Relations as a hard working, trustworthy, smart and aggressive agency to deliver results for any newsworthy consumer product or business.  They are careful with messaging, they do what they say they'll do and they have great relationships with U.S. media.  They have earned placements for Spinnaker in TheStreet.com, Metropolis Magazine, Apartment Therapy's Re-Nest, UnCrate, About.com, Conde Nast Unpacked, Luxury Home Decor, Luxury Home Portfoliom, among others.  Most importantly, their team knows how to help drive sales, which is rare for a PR agency in my years of experience as a CFO and CEO for many companies.


Vicent Ho, Dr. Ho's
President

“I have worked with many PR agencies in our 17 years of business at Dr.Ho's, but when we were introduced to Marketing Maven Public Relations, we were blown away at the sense of ownership and creative ideas that Lindsey, Elizabeth and the whole Marketing Maven Public Relations team continually demonstrates.  I would recommend Marketing Maven Public Relations to any company that is looking for a competitive advantage, creative ideas and sincerely good people that genuinely care about your company's success. 

 

Besides having all the contacts for media and celebrities, Lindsey and Elizabeth are great communicators and a pleasure to work with and are always only a phone call away.  With all the agencies we've worked with in our history, Marketing Maven Public Relations has outperformed every one of them in every aspect and we are truly grateful to work with such honest, hardworking people.”

Ava Seavy, GarageSaleGold.com
Creative Services and Founder

“Marketing professionals have a tougher time in a bad economy to not only sell their products and services, but to create a good image for their brands.  The marketers that include PR into their equation certainly have a leg up on their competition and the marketers that use Marketing Maven Public Relations have an ever bigger edge.  I have had the pleasure of working with Marketing Maven on several occasions with outstanding results.  They achieved in rather short time frames national exposure for little known products on TV, on the radio, in national print publications and online.  Not only are they creative in finding the best slants for story ideas and pitching them to the media, but they are very aggressive with follow through. They are also thoroughly versed in social media and online reputation management, which are critical for consumer oriented companies these days.  The integrity , passion and commitment that Lindsey and her team have demonstrated get an A+ score from me.”
