Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

We hired CIM to help our company accelerate growth in an industry that is filled with nameless mom & pop shops. We wanted to stand out and come across like a larger corporate entity and industry leader. CIM was able to get us press, podcast appearances, and on-camera coaching (down to what ring light we should buy for our computers). It was a masterclass in pinpointing messaging and branding, based on industry data.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

It was hard for us to measure the value given the industry we are in. However, the PR we received was a tool we used to show legitimacy and thus got us meetings with the executives we were targeting at partner companies.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

We felt like we were the only ones in the room, and the only people who mattered to CIM Inc PR. It was remarkable. Always on time. Always reasonably priced.

What was your primary form of communication with CIM Inc PR?

Virtual Meeting

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Marisa, the owner. She has a global network, but runs this boutique agency as if every solution to her customers is bespoke. She is a joy to work with. Her team is very strong as well.

Are there any areas for improvement or something CIM Inc PR could have done differently?

I love context and visuals. I would recommend a PP deck that outlines (like a treasure map), what we plan to do from A-Z, what it will look like, timing, and what to expect when starting with CIM.
